re: generic host problem Wednesday, August 6, 2003 at 1:42 am Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by jealoussound (2 messages posted) If you guys have the windows boot disk that came with the comp or you have a copy of the windows CD handy, put it in restart the comp and boot from the CD. Let windows do its thing then you get to the screen where u choose what u want to do. Type in "R" and then press enter. This is the recovery console option. You are then taken to a screen that asks what u want to repair, type in "1" press enter. Then it asks for the administrative password. This is only utilized in the business field, so all u do is press "enter." Then the lovely C: prompt is gonna pop up. You then want to type "chkdsk /r" in the prompt. Press enter. Then all this stuff starts shooting down the screen, don't worry that means its working. What windows is now doing is scanning file by file every little thing on that hard drive of yours. When its spots an error, it takes what it needs from that CD and fixes it. XP is cool like that. It takes a while, so do it when you have some time to spare. This is a guaranteed way to fix this damn annyoying generic host process error crap. It worked for me, hopefully it helps u guys out.
