Am reinstalling a HP Pavilion model 8120... As soon as i install windows then do the reboot it comes up with Windows protection error.. c:\windows\system\vmm32.vxd Missing/unable to load. As this is on a freshly formatted harddrive im unsure as to wat to do/where to go from here.. I have googled around but most stuff seems to be relating slightly different that i could find. Any help would be greatly appreciated Cheers Wolfsta wolfsta, #1 2004/09/24 Eck Inactive Joined: 2002/08/17 Messages: 198 Likes Received: 0 Trophy Points: 106 Computer Experience: Experienced I'm unsure whether I should even post since I don't recall the exact fix. However, this was a known problem that was fixed by starting from a command prompt or MS-DOS mode and entering one simple command (like renaming a file or something). I am sure I saw this fix as a Microsoft Knowledge Base KB article, though! So, it should be findable by trying a few searches at the Microsoft site. Please do that, and one reason I posted is I remembered that it was a simple fix. I didn't want you to try all sorts of stuff that could be posted in a guru's reply which might mess up your perfectly fine new install!
