I was messing around with my graphics cards so i could play EAW and it didnt work so my SIS card was blocking my ATI card so i , even though i didnt know what i was doing, went on system the device manager then disABLED the thing that said SIS, but to my surprise both cards when htey are plugged in when i turned my pc on it goes to the windos xp loading screen then after that goes black.I need to enable that thing but i cant access the control pannel or even anythin of my pc.Can you tell me how i caN ACCESS MY PC so i can enable that thing i disabled cause all i can use now is my labtop .
Thank you
Yours Truly SL Che

while booting up, you need to hammer either F5 or F8 when loading windows. That should give you the failsafe boot. It won't have internet or fancy graphics, but you should be able to switch that setting back. I do not use XP, so I cannot tell for sure when you have to hit with F-key.

Btw, please try to use at least semi-correct punctuation and uppercase letters. Your post is a bitch to read with all those wrong spaces (or missing spaces) and weird sentences.

F8. Same as in 2k and 2k3, Vort.

You need to get to "Safe Mode" that way. Yes, Safe Mode takes a long time to boot. Patience.

Seconding the point - it really IS hard to read.

I'd say you want to seek out professional help, rather than try muddling through it on your own, at this point.
