Dell Symantic Issue with Removal
Second Thread on this issue as I have not resolved yet.

My issue is that I have removed the Symantec Antivirus v10
- I then went to Restart - and now I cant get back to my sign-on page.

This is what comes up on the Black Screen:

Starting Dell Symantec Recovery Environment

Then it starts a new page stating:

The file \minint\system32\hddrvr2\nvraid.sys could not be found.
Press any key to continue.


I have put in the XP Reinstallation CD to run a Recovery but the CD
would not boot.

Any suggestions?

If you CD did not boot, you have to go into the BIOS and change Boot settings. On my system, I press <DEL> to enter the BIOS setup screen. In there will be a choice of boot up devices, you have to make it so that the CD boots first.

Symantec Dell Issue
Thanks for your response.

Once Im into the Bios my XP Home CD boots and it asks me what to do and I type in R for recovery.

It then asks me which windows installation would I like to log into?

1: D: \WINDOWS
2: C: \minint

Im not sure where to go from here....

Suggestions?
