Title: Xxhighend/computer won't boot into Ram OS
Post by: Robert on October 31, 2017, 06:54:41 pm
Peter,

Always something, now computer will not boot into RamOS14393 2.09v. I've tried this with OS10586 2.06v and the same no Ram boot. I got back to Base14393 and all seems ok, music plays perfectly in min OS. Files are not blocked.

Apart from adding 2.09 patch to 14393 and Xx settings I have not changed any other software. If I leave it trying to boot to Ram it ends up in Base 14393 but XXhigh won't work.

Could this be a hardware fault or ram disc? I did remove the Ram drive from the computer to use another disc, on putting back today no Ram bootup. Day before it took 3 trys to get it to Ram boot which was not normal. I rarely remove Ram disc even for better sound during play. I tested Ram with Memtest86 and no problems.

Hi Robert,

That definitely does not look right. But now why.
Can you show me a screenshot of the XXHighEnd's boot menu (the one behind Stop-RichtClick - Boot into) ?

It is not necessarily harware (chance is even small, Id say).

Peter,
        This is the images. The boot is sitting on default Base in this screen but normally I would have the Ram default highlighted.
I just clicked the ram default and its booting into Ram now. I guess it was something in the boot menu. Music played. It was like the boot menu was stuck.

OK Robert, if it was that simple ...
Otherwise all is looking good to me.

If it happens again, without you being aware of changing anything, let me know. It should not change automatically, so if that happens, something is amiss.

Btw, "mangling" with the normal Windows Boot menu can cause these kind of things easily. And actually you have just proven that you used that. But possibly only because of seing problems. But still ... (and just a general hint and nothing iof "accusing" as such !) we should never interfere with the (redundant !) XXHighEnd boot menu (thus only use that, so all remains consistent). Thus also with problems, try to use the XXHighEnd boot menu or otherwise things may only get worse.

Best regards and thank you for the feedback,
Peter
