dmcgloneHi all, anyone familiar with repairing win 7?02:59
Cheri703repairing how?02:59
Cheri703install ubuntu?02:59
dmcgloneLOL no can do02:59
Cheri703what's going on with it?03:00
dmcgloneit complains about iastor.sys being corrupt or some such03:01
Cheri703*shrug* no clue03:02
Cheri703google = friend03:02
dmcgloneI've googled my eyeballs out, it seems to be a known problem03:04
Cheri703replace iastor.sys?03:04
dmcgloneI can't be sure the replacement is the correct one or if it will work, so I haven't done that yet03:05
Cheri703could it make it worse?03:05
dmcgloneyeah03:07
Cheri703nvm then :)03:07
dmcglonelol03:07
dmcgloneat the moment, the computer works, but if it's shutdown for a small period of time, it will give that error and reboot when you try to long into windows. It does it a couple times then it works fine afterwards03:08
dmcglone‎It's a Dell... what do you expect03:08
* dmcglone hates Dell03:09
Cheri703:(03:09
dmcgloneit's my sisters boss' computer03:10
Cheri703any thoughts for having to be one on one with someone who is likely to be VERY displeased with you? /me has to see husbandboss tomorrow after sending the "you owe me craploads of money" email...he can be a big jerk sometimes, so either he'll try to be suuuper nice and manipulative and try to get me to change my mind, or he'll be a giant richard :(03:10
dmcgloneit's a known issue with Dell's and the iastor.sys file which is a raid driver03:11
dmcgloneshow up with a "piss on you" attitude :-)03:12
Cheri703is it a laptop dmcglone ?03:12
dmcgloneyup03:12
Cheri703yeah, and/or I'll just say "I already called the guy, so I only have a minute, client is expecting me"03:12
Cheri703hmm...k03:12
Cheri703can you turn off raid things in the bios?03:12
dmcgloneI did, computer refused to boot03:13
Cheri703:(03:13
dmcgloneI've done everything pretty much except replace the sys file and fully format and restore03:14
dmcgloneI don't want to do much until she can find her restore disk03:14
Cheri703do you have her product key?03:15
Cheri703and what version of win7?03:15
dmcgloneno03:15
dmcgloneit's the home version03:15
Cheri703look up if there's a way to get the key from an existing install. you can download the media03:16
Cheri703if you want to go that route03:16
Cheri703home premium? 32? 64?03:16
dmcgloneoh it's 6403:16
Cheri703home or home premium?03:17
dmcglonehome03:18
Cheri703ok, there are places online you can download an iso of it03:18
Cheri703(and not via torrent sites)03:18
Cheri703you just need your key03:18
dmcglonewhere?03:19
Cheri703will search, hang on, I thought I'd bookmarked it03:19
dmcglonek03:19
Cheri703are you anti torrent sites? just for the record? since you're using it in a legal capacity...03:26
Cheri703the one site only has home premium, not home basic03:26
dmcgloneI use torrent sites sometimes03:43
Cheri703ok, just look for a windows 7 home basic iso03:43
Cheri703and if you have your key, then you can use it03:44
dmcgloneYeah, I'll get it from her as soon as I can03:44
dmcgloneI'm gonna call it a night03:46
dmcgloneI will take care of this tomorrow, I'm so tired I can't hardly keep my eyes from watering03:47

Cheri703indeed05:34
Cheri703I meant to make one a while back, but I used my awesome printer and it came out nicely.05:34
Cheri703husband was like, "no words?" I thought about it, but if people recognize the logo, they'll know it :)05:34
=== Unit1931 is now known as Unit19P

Unit193I don't see that as people...05:46
Unit193PS don't google "ubuntu circle of friends"05:47
Cheri703heh, image search has some interesting ones05:48
Unit193I didn't image search (you can guess what one poped up)05:48

* Cheri703 is a wee bit annoyed, husband ordered wrong drink, then when they made the version I wanted, it was significantly smaller than the first wrong one :(22:59
canthus13Cheri703: Sounds like they're playing chicken with you.23:02
