So I had a fresh reformatted machine and had loaded a bunch of programs on it, with 1 HDD(sata) loaded. It was my c:\ drive. Then I shut down, and put in a second HDD(IDE, to pull data off) I made sure it was set to slave.
Boot up log on, and my Sata drive was now set to E:\ and the IDE drive was now present as C:\
all the shortcuts and everything came from the E:\ drive, but a few things would not work. So I moved over all my files I needed and turned the machine off.
Boot back up and when you log on it instantly logs off.(this is with the SATA drive only)
plug the IDE drive back in and it boots up, logs in regularly. I noticed that the swap file was on the c:\ so I figured I would put it on E:\ and that windows must have been looking for that when I tried to log on.
No luck with that. I wanted to try to change the E back to C, so I renamed C to G.
Now I can’t log in at all.
It won’t log in safe mode, currently running check disk from the boot cd.
any help would be awesome!
