here the error ive been getting when i reboot it with the disc

REGISTRY_ERROR

technical info:

***STOP:0X00000051(0X00000001,0XE1199828,0X008AF00 0,0x000001D5)


plus another problem is that my BIOS has a password and i dont know it

heres more info

BIOS version:A02
Processor Type:Intel Pentium 4
Processor Speed:1.80 GHZ
System Bus Speed:400 MHZ
Cache RAM: 512 KB
Total Memory:256 MB
Memory Bank 0:256 MB
Memory Bank 1:[Not Installed]

Security
Supervisor Password Is:[Installed]
User Password Is:[Not Installed]

and everything in my BIOS is grayed in so i cant do nothing until i bypass the security password

and all i want to do is format my hard drive. so please more assistance would be great.


Thank you, Jason Bjorn

open ur case there should be a jumper to clear the password
and when you get in the bios change the sata mode from ahci to ide and you should be fine

[djdzwonkowski]

to format the hdd download a hirens boot image and burn it boot and there is a utility to format
