Re: [MCE] XP SP3 Issues Like I said, I am sorry if you took this as a personal thing, but I really do not mean to be short with you. I am just frustrated and worried that I will mess my machine up even more than it already is. I don't have the money to buy a new computer if this one goes down. I will probably try this later when I am not so frustrated.
I really, really, REALLY do appreciate your help. I swear  Thank you so much for sticking with me on this and working with me. I just need a few to get my nerves down. LOL... |

I did not take it personally. Nor felt you were trying to shoot the messenger. If you need a more automated approach to making the changes:
1. We fortunately installed earlier Recovery Console. Boot into Recovery Console. Use "Administrator" as the username.
At the command prompt that will appear on a fairly empty screen, type carefully:
disable ftsata2
exit
2. Boot into Safe Mode.
Using your mouse, left click once below where it says: "Copy to clipboard":
REGEDIT4
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\intelppm]
"Start"=dword:00000004
Open a new Notepad document. (Do not use a Word Processor or WordPad). Click "Format" and be certain that Word Wrap is not enabled.
Right-click | Paste the Code box contents from above into Notepad. Click File, Save as..., and enter (including quotation marks) as the filename: "RegistryFix.REG". Exit Notepad.
Double click your new file and agree to the registry merge when asked. You can then delete this new file.
Reboot to Normal mode.
