whenever I try to boot the machine it sticks on the window screen; when I try

to boot in safe mode it stalls on that particular driver.

Can can anyone tell me how to start the machine with a atisgkaf.sys problem?

 

Thanks -- Doug

- What is the recent history of this machine?

- Do you have a good and up-to-date virus scanner?

- Have a look here for expected sizes of this file:

http://www.file.net/process/atisgkaf.sys.html

 

To check the file size, you could boot the machine with

a Win98 boot disk from http://www.bootdisk.com, then run

ntfsdos.exe from http://www.sysinternals.com.

a curious question: Why would I use a Win98 boot disk for an XP machine?

A curious question back at you: How do you intend to check

and verify the size of atisgkaf.sys if Windows won't start?

....and how do you intend to do that if the volume is formatted as NTFS?

 

A stock Windows 98 boot disk won't do it--you'd need some kind of a helper

like NTFSDOS.

Well, that's what I recommended in my first reply - please

read it again!

OK... I'm out of stupid questions... I understand your point. However, I

went to the site where I was supposed to find the NTFSDOS.exe file, but could

not find it at the site given above.I could use a little more help

negotiating the website to find that file.

Not a stupid question at all but one that could easily be answered

by me asking a question in return!

 

I could not readily find ntfsdos.exe at http://www.sysinternals.com

either but I struck paydirt immediately when I entered this into

a Google search box:

 

download "ntfsdos.exe"

actually, I had already tried that, but still could not actually download

it. Every site they came u under Google would send me somewhere else when I

would click to download. Can you tell me exactly which place you downloaded

it from?

I see what you mean. It appears that Microsoft have pulled it

off their site. If you post a valid EMail address, suitably encoded,

then I'll send you a copy.
