- dos mem corrupt
- Posted by Big Bill on May 11th, 2008
My machine's not coming out the boot sequence in either safe or normal
or anything, XP Pro, SP2, Sempron 3400, 2 gig mem, Asus, Sata, erm...
I try to run micro-scope diagnostics on it and can't as locks with the
run-time error r6003 - divide by 0
message below it suggests
PANIC MCB chain corrupted.
The drive's ok it passes chkdsk (I set it before it got this bad, I
could get into safe mode before I ran chkdsk, oddly) and it passes
memtest with flying colours. I have a feeling the machine got messed
up by the heat we had the other day.
Any assistance gratefully received.

This is the third place you've multiposted this, when I had already given

you have not tried the things I suggested. I don't see any additions to

Please don't multipost; it makes more work for everyone and will get you
*less* help, not more. See this for why:

Just wipe it, you mean?
What about the recovery console option? No opinions on that?

Ah no, we used the repair function in the end. I'll say more in the
other thread. Why'd you think this is a windup?
