Hi,
Just the other day I installed a Gigabyte Iram into my PC as my main disk, along with a SATA HDD to store the Documents and Settings folder.
I have successfully configured the computer to use this folder, installed all programs and copied files over and all seems fine.
However, when I start up the PC, about half the time the control panel and drivers fail to load for the sound and/or graphics card, reinstalling them causes the device to work on the next boot.
In device manager the relevant devices show as present with error code 39 - Device driver cannot load because it is corrupt or missing.
For the soundcard, when the PC is shut down a message box appears stating that the program is not responding displays with the EXE of the program that runs in the taskbar, with the option to End Now.
I have tried upgrading the sound and downgrading the graphics, and uninstalling and reinstalling the devices, no effect.
I cant think of anything else to try, to be honest this has me completely stumped.
Any ideas?
