I had a problem with installing it at 1/15/03.
When the install program asked me if I wanted to make a shortcut to the
desktop, I choose yes. Then I ran the short cut and it gave me a, "Must
shutdown all programs and restart in msdos. Do you want to proceed?"
message. So I choose yes, and it rebooted. The strange thing is that
when it restarted in msdos mode it gave me a strange message. It said:
"
Load DosKEY
WARNING: The LOCK command enables direct disk access by programs
that can CORRUPT file names and/or DESTROY disk data, resulting in the
loss of files on your disk.
Are you sure (Y/N)?
and when I choose either yes or no, my comp reboots and ask me the same
question. I can't even get to windows. The only way that I can
actually get to windows is through safe mode or by doing step-by-step
loading process and turning off four of the loading files:
Dos = Single
Lock
C:/windows/command e####\c:/C:/cygwin/cygwin.bin
(or something close to it and the #### are numbers that I forgot)
Some path/wx
Can anyone help me or tell me how to get rid of it, because I try
deleting it once and it still gave me the same problems over and over
again. I redownloaded it and waiting for a solution.
