panasonic cf-w2 hard drive Wiped!!

Hi, somehow my hard drive got wiped and i dont have a recovery disk

i tried installing the default window 2k and xp, the 2k displays ntkrnlmp.exe is missing and xp displays something is missing.Window Me worked but i cant install any drivers, i tried upgrading but it didnt work. help me plz

 

orderv recovery disks is what you should have done first bit there may be something wrong with your HDD get it checked

 

any other methods other than order the disk, i installed window me on it, so it must be fine rite? what if i use norton ghost and use a fresh image on it, will that work?

i found out my brother used dBan to wipe my laptop!!!!

 

Why would your brother nuke your laptop?

Here is some info that may help... NTKRNLMP.EXE is a special version of the Windows NT kernel that allows you to use more than one processor if your version of Windows permits -- and currently all versions of Windows except Windows XP Home Edition permit it. Chances are, the copy of the multiprocessor kernel on the floppy disk got corrupted. So how to bypass this? At the beginning of the setup process, it asks you if you need to use any special SCSI drivers by hitting F6. Two almost-entirely undocumented other features can be activated at that point. If you hit F7, then Windows Setup doesn't do any special detecting at all: it assumes your computer is single processor with no power saving features (you can change this later on from Device Manager) and no "weird" SCSI drivers, just "normal" ones, and uses the appropriate kernel and drivers. If you hit F5, then you can select a specific Hardware Abstraction Layer and Kernel to use for the install. When you start Setup and it asks you for SCSI drivers, hit F7. NTOSKRNL.EXE will get loaded instead of NTKRNLMP.EXE, and only a single processor will be used. Once Windows Setup is successful, and assuming you've got a Windows 2000 CD, you then open Device Manager, select the Computer object, select the item under it, and update the drivers to "ACPI-compliant Multiprocessor Computer." You will now regain your previous dual processor goodness.

Try it and let us know...

 

it didnt work, pressing f6 or f7 did nothing

 

It didn't even offer you a choice for F6? Or it did and it didn't do anything?

 

it offered me a choice for f6 but it didnt do anything

 

is anyone kind enough to upload their panasonic recovery disc on torrent?

 

Time to kick that guys arse I'd say. and then make him pay for your laptop to be repaired. Any local computer shop should be able to reload the OS for you.

 

i wouldnt mind using window me for now,except that the drivers doesnt install

 

how can i fix it myself other than using recovery disc?

 

Windows ME? You must be really desperate! That's like saying you wouldn't mind eating the bark off of that tree over there. You gotta be real hungry to think that way. :laugh:

 

i tried installing window 2k3 hoping that would install but didnt work

 

Did you reformat the drive beffore trying to reinstall the OS? Did you delete the partition containing the old OS?

 

yea,some of the files on the window 2k3 wont copy onto the laptop

 

i installed back to window me again, now im trying to upgrade to xp and copy the dl_ files on my desktop to the laptop, where the files that wont copy to the laptop

 

****,didnt work got ntkrnlmp.exe couldnt be loaded.error 7

 

Ah, the joys of Windows!!

 

maybe i should try linux?

 

Give this a try:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCD

It's a 'Live CD' which means you boot off of it, and it gives you a full working operating system with office suite, web browser, etc. without having to install anything onto your hard drive - it runs entirely from the CD.

 

linux aint for me cuz i want to plays but the window emulator doesnt support my games
