Hello everybody This is another example of why I hate Windows. The other day I tried changing the memory in our Asus NetBook. The reason for this was that we put a 2GB PC3 1067 MHZ module in it a while back and it seemed to be running quite slowly still. So when the opportunity came around, owing to another upgraded machine earlier this week, I inserted the same type of memory but it was 1333 MHZ instead of 1067 MHZ. I surmised that since this machine was quite new and since it was Intel Core 2 Duo, I should be able to get away with this and I thought that, if it required slower memory it would simply drop the buss speed.
No such luck! The entire system went absolutely mental! And it has left me with a trashed NetBook. Well, from the software perspective I mean. I changed the memory back, in the hope that I'd be able to roll back the system using RollBack. But no such luck, it isn't appearing in the boot menu for some reason. So, what I'm asking now is does anybody know where I can get an Asus EeePC resort disk? I thought we had one but when I looked at it it wasn't a disk image, just a copy of the Windows files, so it isn't bootable. There's supposed to be a recover partition on the HD which I had thought you used by holding down the F9 key at power up. But that isn't working either. I really don't like this new idea of using hidden partitions to recover the OS. Apple has gone the same way now but at least one can either download the OS or create a bootable thumb drive.
