Published (2009-11-13 14:31:00)
Small correction, The Properties|General tab for a folder does NOT indicate the condition of the read-only attribute for the folder. You may in fact set a folder to read-only via the command prompt, Run box or a batch or CMD file by using the ATTRIB command with the R switch. While you can set and unset it, Windows for all practical purposes will ignore it. You may observe it turn on and off by enabling the attribute column in Details view....

Hi welcome to the group, good to have you.
Have you tried getting into safe mode, if you are able to try running a virus and malware scan... or try booting from the 'Last good configuration that worked'.
If you are able to I'd be tempted to back any important data up just in case somethings happened to the hard drive itself.
I am assuming that it's exactly the same on batteries and ...

You don't say if the hard drive was faulty or not... just that I was thinking if you installed 'Acronis' it would allow you to 'clone' the hard drive so yopu could remove the old one put the cloned copy in and away you go happy computerin'.

CodyGH Hi.
This is hopefully a fix for your crcdisk.sys problem. Firstly. Start
your computer in safe mode. When it freezes at crcdick.sys, press the
power button once only (don't hold it down) Your computer will appear to
have shut down but it will restart in "startup repair mode". Follow the
instuctions and this will fix crcdisk.exe. Good luck.

Sadly what you propose is logical but may be disastrous.
If you have one hard drive and reformat it to install the upgrade the
upgrade may fail to activate because it does not see a valid, activated copy
of XP or Vista.
