Problems with ASUS A7N8X-X Motherboard Config first:
Athlon 2600+ processor
ASUS A7N8X-X Motherboard
512 MB Elixir 400MHZ 184 pin RAM
Nvidia GeForce FX5700
Maxtor 80 GB 7200 RPM Harddrive
(Nice and simple eh?)
Problem:
After having problems with an inferior motherboard that couldn't
supply enough power to my Geforce fx5700, I switched the motherboard
for the ASUS and bought branded RAM (that passed the Windows Memory
Testing utility).
However, now everytime i try to boot my XP Proffessional version it
reboots at startup. When I choose it to startup in the safe mode it
stalls at loading the 'd346bus.sys' file and asks me if i want to
press "esc" to cancel loading it. When i press it or when i don't
either way it reboots. I tried repairing Windows using the recovery
console but nothing seems to work.
I have tried fiddling with the BIOS using different RAM speeds
(because i think the processor runs at 333 MHZ on the motherboard)
however nothing works.
The 'd346bus.sys' file seems to have something to do with virtual
drives in windows so i don't really see the logic here.
Can anyone help me out?
Re: Problems with ASUS A7N8X-X Motherboard First, do you have any boot Accelerators installed? If you do, that
may be your problem. If you do not that file may be corrupt and you
may have to do a Windows Repair. If that does not work. I suggest that
you (if you can backup anything you have to have) and then do a
Complete Reinstall of Windows. I have heard of this Error before and
it usally had to do with Boot Acce. or the file is Corrupt, or now
with the release of XP SP2 RC1 that too.
