Help with dual booting...PLEASE
so I just got a new laptop and ArchLinux is running great on it, I love everything about it. I originally intended to run WinXP under KVM because there are some windows apps I need to use for my job. It turns out my bios doesn't support KVM and I can't get what I need to run under wine, so I decided to bite the bullet and install xp.
My hard drive partitions are as follows:
20 gb boot
5 gb swap
150 gb home
75 gb free
when I try to install windows xp it can't detect any hard drive installed on my computer.
all of my partitions are primary partitions, is that the problem?
if it is, is it possible to change the swap to an extended partition so i have room for another primary?
any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
thank you!

Hello,

No, that's not the problem. As Kai allready mentioned, Windows is unable to handle the SATA-HD.

I have hopped around on different distros and I found that Archlinux would be the best solution for me. However, I need help with dual booting Archlinux and Vista as I will need Vista around for one program and a game that do not work with any Linux distro that I have tried. I have not done a text based install before, I have only used newbie distros but I want to move on to Archlinux.
I will only need one partition for Vista and one for Arch. I believe I can achieve the goal of dual booting them by shrinking the vista partition, and then installing Arch in the remaining space and use GRUB to boot the necessary partitions when my laptop is powered on. This works with Ubuntu, so I assume it shall be the same basic concept with Arch. I can follow the instructions on installing, and the installation is easier than I had expected it to be. I have one question, how would I go about using the above technique that I mentioned during the install? I would like to know how to do it correctly, I cannot risk messing up Vista. I'm fifteen and my dad would be very frustrated if I did mess up Vista. I would appreciate some specific instructions, because I really like Arch from what I have read. I also look forward to being an active member in the community as well if all goes well.Welcome!
Another young one I see! I'm currently 17, however I started using linux when I was 13 (8th grade year).
You can resize the vista partition by using gparted. You can download the gparted livecd from there website (http://gparted.sourceforge.net/download.php). I do not know specific directions, but it is pretty obvious how to resize, and if you need help you can probably google something like "resize partition gparted". I WARN YOU that you do risk data loss resizing the partition. I don't believe the risk is high, but it still there, so backup any important data that you may have in case something goes wrong!!
Do you have your own computer that you can experiment on? That might be a safe option than using your dads. I am been fortunate to have hand-me-down systems, but when I was young I made my dad angry quite a few times "experimenting!"
If your dad's system has enough juice, you may want to consider install arch in a virtual machine to get idea of however thing works. Following the Beginners Guide on the wiki will be you best bet for a successful and well configured machine (http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Beginners_Guide). If you really want to play it safe you can even go as far as install windows in a virtual machine, resizing the partition, and installing arch in the same virtual machine.
I hate to say this, but if you absolutely can not mess up vista, I would advice against installing any other OS and messing with the partition scheme. As whenever you mess with the partitions you run a risk of messing up Vista (or any other os for that matter). If you don't already have your own computer which you can tinker with, it might not be a bad idea to look at getting one. They are becoming cheap, you can build one for about $300-$400USD, or buy one for probably around $400.
Hope this helps a bit... -

Help with access control please
So I'm trying to set up my brother's PSP to the wirless network through MAC address timed access. What I want to do is make it so that he can only access it through certain times in the day. I'm having troubles with actually getting it to work. Everytime I set it up, the PSP only show's up as a DHCP client and not a Wireless client. I tried the option panel with the add wireless clients through the first try access. Could I get some help with this issue please? Thanks!
Just to calm your fears... There is no conspiracy. If someone had an answer or a suggestion they would post it.

Error with dual boot Win 8/OL6 R3
Hello,
I am hoping to discuss this with someone who has experience with this configuration. My goal is to get Oracle Linux dual booting on my windows 8 machine.
I have installed OL but I am having trouble getting it to dual boot win8/OL using the windows boot menu. Whereas windows 8 boots as expected, the Oracle Linux option gives me the error:
"+Windows failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause...contact you system administrator or computer manufacturer for assistance+
+File:+ \NST\nst_linux.mbr
+Status: 0xc000007b+
+Info: The selected application or operating system couldn't be loaded because a required file is missing or contains errors.+"
Here are some details of the scenario:
- Documentation followed: Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux-6-Installation_Guide-en-US.pdf
- Hardware: Dell Precision M4700 64 bit UEFI
- OEM installed/Default OS: Windows 8 Pro 64 bit
- Installation source: OracleLinux-R6-U3-Server-x86_64-dvd.iso (written to DVD)
These are the broad steps I followed:
In windows 8
I:
- downloaded the Linux ISO software. The checksum on the download matched
- wrote the ISO to a bootable installation disk
- created a new 344gb partition for Linux using the DOS DISKPART command - partition 7
Linux Install
- I booted using the Linux installation DVD and started the installation
- When Installing Linux partition 7 became a 500mb system partition and partition 8 became the 343 gb Linux partition
- I manually created the boot partition as ext3 (because the pdf I was following said "+If your 64-bit x86 system uses UEFI instead of BIOS, you will need to manually create a /boot partition. This partition must have an ext3 file system. If you choose to partition automatically, your system will not boot.+"
- I installed the boot loader on sda7. I selected “First sector of boot partition - /dev/sda7”. I assume this installs separate GRUB boot loader on the Linux partition (7) – which will then be 'chain loaded' from the windows boot menu. Put another way, it will boot with the windows boot manager, which will give me an option to chain load the Grub boot loader, which will then run Linux...
- I chose the desktop installation
- The installation reported that it completed successfully
I successfully booted back into windows:
- I used easybcd to edit the microsoft bcd and successfully created a boot menu for Oracle Linux. I used the legacy grub because the Linux documentation says "+Note that the version of GRUB in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 is an old and stable version now known as "GRUB Legacy" since upstream development moved to GRUB 2.3 Red Hat remains committed to maintaining the version of GRUB that we ship with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6, just as we do with all packages that we ship.+".
- After installing Linux and updating the BCD, the BCD now looks like this:
Windows Boot Manager
identifier {bootmgr}
path \EFI\Microsoft\Boot\bootmgfw.efi
description Windows Boot Manager
locale en-US
inherit {globalsettings}

identifier {524cc0d3-8bce-11e2-935f-b8ca3ad88679}
device partition=C:
path \NST\nst_linux.mbr
description OracleLinux
I'm not sure the BCD entry is correct. I assume that this entry should be pointing to the nst_linux.mbr on the Linux boot partition. However I have verified that this file exists in windows 8:
C:\NST\nst_linux.mbr
I haven't been able to exactly confirm how the boot process should work i.e. whether this file should actually be in the Linux boot partition (as opposed to the windows c drive) and whether the BCD should also point to the Linux boot partition when referring to this partition.
As I mentioned above, I now have the windows boot menu with Windows 8 (which boots successfully) and Oracle Linux (which gives me the error see below for complete wording**). Is the Real-mode Boot sector wrong? Should it point to the Linux boot partition? Is it a problem with my UEFI disk? I don't think it should be because this version of Oracle Linux supports UEFI and my hardware is UEFI.
Has anyone carried out a similar win8/OL dual boot?
2001
** Complete wording of the Linux boot option in the windows boot manager:
Windows failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause. To fix the problem:
1. Insert your Windows installation disk and restart the computer.
2. Choose your language settings, and then click "next".
3. Click "Repair your computer".
If you do not have this disk, contact you system administrator or computer manufacturer for assistance

Edited by: 2001 on Apr 17, 2013 5:17 PMHi,
Here are my responses:
*[asmirnov]* Could you please confirm, I just want to see if I got it right the first time -
*[2001]* I'm happy to share my progress
Q1)
*[asmirnov]* You did create a partition (where you would install Linux) from Win8, correct?
*[2001]* Yes. I used diskmgmt.msc to create a separate partition. I didn't format the partition because the Linux install doesn't want that, it creates and formats the partitions in the unallocated partition
Q2)
*[asmirnov]* You use GRUB (not GRUB2)?
*[2001]* I'm not sure where you were asking about, so I hope my answer here covers all possibilities you may have meant.
I was using the windows 8 boot. I wanted to chain load to the boot loader in the Linux Partition. It is interesting what the Linux install did with my partition, it created 2 partitions in the unformatted partition. 1 was a bootable partition and the other was the Linux partition. The details were:
2 sda’s (a boot / ext4 and a VolGroup (vg_linuxlocalhost)/ physical volume (LVM) ). In the VolGroup it created 3 lv’s, lv_root, lv_home and lv_swap. I understand that this is all normal.
I followed the documentation note which said "To configure the Red Hat Enterprise Linux boot loader to chain load from a different boot loader, you must specify the boot drive manually. If you chose any of the automatic partitioning options, you must now select the Review and modify partitioning layout option before you click Next or you cannot specify the correct boot drive"
So there was also the note in the documentation that said "Note that the version of GRUB in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 is an old and stable version now known as "GRUB Legacy" since upstream development moved to GRUB 2.3 Red Hat remains committed to maintaining the version of GRUB that we ship with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6, just as we do with all packages that we ship." I didn't install any bootloaders manually (either the windows 8 OOTB default that came with my machine or the Linux one), I just took the defaults. I'm wasn't sure how to access the Linux partitions once it is installed, so I can't confirm it was the legacy GRUB in the Linux boot partition, but I believe this note is saying that it OL6 does use the legacy grub. I believe GRUB Legacy is version .97.
Q3)
*[asmirnov]* Which version of Linux exactly did you use, was that Oracle Linux or you used one from RedHat directly? What is the kernal version?
*[2001]* I used "OracleLinux-R6-U3-Server-x86_64-dvd.iso.sha1sum" from the mirror site http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/pub/oraclelinux/OL6/U3/x86_64/. According to the release notes at: https://oss.oracle.com/ol6/docs/RELEASE-NOTES-U3-en.html the kernel is
- Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel Release 2 [kernel-uek-2.6.39-200.24.1.el6uek]. Installed and booted by default
- Red Hat compatible Kernel [kernel-2.6.32-279.el6]. Installed by default
Note: By default, both the Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel and the Red Hat Compatible Kernel for the specific architecture (i386 or x86_64) are installed, and the system boots the Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel by default. If needed, /etc/grub.conf and /etc/sysconfig/kernel can be modified to make the system boot with the Red Hat Compatible Kernel by default.
Regarding your follow-up point that "Microsoft blocks 3rd party chainloaders from the BCD menu for UEFI machines. We are researching workarounds, none have presented themselves as of yet.", I'm not sure it actually blocks it, but it certainly isn't a straight forward process.
I have actually abandoned my attempt to get the dual boot working. It is a real shame because I wanted to do it for my own satisfaction.
I am now using Oracle Virtual Box as suggested by others, include Dude earlier in this thread. This has given me confidence that I was doing all the right things because the install worked first time without any problems. The virtualization is much simpler and I have had no problems so far.
Fusion
As for your point about the fusion middleware and OL5. I am looking at Oracle SOA with is part of the Fusion brand. I think that the latest SOA components will work on OL6 - but I have yet to try it. Following the certification matrix can be a little difficult. So as I indicated above, my current thoughts are to use the Oracle Virtual Box with Linux r6 u3 and to install the SOA components on that when I get chance. The alternative is using the pre-built virtual machine it has Linux and SOA (it might cover your stack too, or there may be another one that suits you better on the site) http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/soasuite/learnmore/vmsoa-172279.html. Note that this is still on OL5.
I hope this helps. -
Has anyone got any thoughts or have you yourself purchased the MBP with Retina display and added the dual boot system with windows?
I desperately need to update my gear and want a MBP.
I'm a full time photographer at my local paper and freelance photographer - use computers A LOT, and only use windows. I've experienced mac and know I prefer it, the way it runs pleases me a whole lot more and for the amount i'm processing/working I need something that will keep up.
With 12 years of photoshop gear loaded up for all my photo processing etc, I'm wanting to add Windows and have use of both. Windows would run photoshop that I had already purchased some time ago - question is, how will it run? what will the display be like running Windows on Mac with the retina display?
I use CS4 at the moment and can't afford to upgrade to CS6 just yet, plus i'd waste a lot of what I already have by starting again on Mac. I'd use Mac for everything else, need the use of Windows for portions of what I do.
About to head to Canada and want to get set up for the road. Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks heaps!There are some drawbacks, running Windows 7 (only) on a Mac via Bootcamp yields less than stellar results, especially with the Retina display.
And of your traveling, the Mac's high power needs (especially the Retina display) and lack of removable battery are going to be a serious issue. The Retina display is glossy, not ideal for viewing on the road and in varied environments.
CS4 won't run on the OS X version that comes with a Mac, so your looking at purchasing CS6.
Support for Windows is more widespread than for Mac's, also if you ever need to redownload OS X to fix a issue, requires a fast reliable Internet connection of the broadband kind.
If your running Windows on your Mac, you can expect to be on your own and not get support as easily as if you were running it on a regular PC.
If you can't afford to keep up with CS upgrades, then you shouldn't be considering a Mac because there are more paid upgrades on that than on Windows 7, it's like a annual nightmare.
IMMO your still better off on a decent, 1920 x 1080 res, matte screen, removable battery (with extras), Win 7 Pro i7 machine (Pro+ runs XP programs) which will stay like it is and get security updates until 2020.
OS X changes every year and if you don't upgrade, + all your third party software, then about 3 years later your left behind for updates.
Also you will have to buy Win 7 to run on your Mac, the OEM disks won't work.
If your trying to budget, then a Mac is certainly not for you. -
[SOLVED] Need help with rEFInd boot entry for rsync backup
I made a successful backup my arch install to an other internal SSD disk (from my HDD).
But now I can't figure out how to make a boot entry for this drive. The wiki only mentions GRUB, which I do not use.
This is the fstab for my HDD:
# <file system> <dir> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
# /dev/sda5
UUID=c1822e3c-e037-4445-bdd8-b71778237dee / ext4 rw,relatime,data=ordered 0 1
# /dev/sda2 LABEL=SYSTEM_DRV
UUID=D2DF-9F74 /boot vfat rw,relatime,fmask=0022,dmask=0022,codepage=437,iocharset=iso8859-1,shortname=mixed,errors=remount-ro 0 2
And this is the fstab on my SSD which I edited:
# <file system> <dir> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
# /dev/sdb1
UUID=c61a1301-4728-465d-b40b-bde5e084eb50 / ext4 rw,relatime,data=ordered 0 1
# /dev/sda2 LABEL=SYSTEM_DRV
UUID=D2DF-9F74 /boot vfat rw,relatime,fmask=0022,dmask=0022,codepage=437,iocharset=iso8859-1,shortname=mixed,errors=remount-ro 0 2
But I'm not sure about the /boot entry, do I need something else here?
Afterward I tried updating rEFInd by reinstalling using refind-install, but that did not work.
ps. I dual boot with Windows.
Last edited by Devenda (2014-08-18 07:58:07)I also tried adding the menu entry manually by editing refind.conf but that didn't work. I got:
Invalid loader file!
Error: Not Found while loading vmlinuz-linux
Here is some additional info:
refind.conf:
menuentry "SSD Arch Linux" {
icon /EFI/refind/icons/os_arch.png
volume "ArchSSD"
loader /boot/vmlinuz-linux
initrd /boot/initramfs-linux.img
options "root=/dev/sdb1 ro"
I hope this helps.

Hi, I wanted to created a dual boot system with Arch Linux and Ubuntu so I thought it best not to install a bootloader and just edit the grub installed by Ubuntu.
It's not working too well.
This is my fdisk -l output (from Ubuntu)
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hda1 * 1 11906 95634913+ 7 HPFS/NTFS
/dev/hda2 11907 14593 21583327+ f W95 Ext'd (LBA)
/dev/hda5 11907 14593 21583296 83 Linux

Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

/dev/hdb2 19393 19457 522112+ 82 Linux swap / Solaris
This is the part of grub that boots into Arch Linux:
title Arch Linux
root (hd1,0)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz26 root=/dev/hdb1
initrd /boot/kernel26.img
However, when I try to boot off of it, it says it cannot find the label for /dev/hdb1 and it tries to create it but fails. It then logs me in as user "initramfs" with a minimalistic shell.
Any help would be appreciated, I'm stuck at this point.From 2.6.19 on, Linux uses the libata layer, which means sd* instead of hd* for HDDs. It's not Arch, it's just the kernel.

Need help with dual monitor setup for KDE 3.5.5.
Here's my hardware:
NEC MultiSync LCD 1530V: 1024x768 (analog)
Samsung SyncMaster 941BW: 1440x900 (digital)
nVidia Dual head AGP video card.
The dual monitor works under dual-boot Windows, boot up and pure Linux console. I've googled around for help, changed my xorg.conf file accordingly to some sites, but it wasn't much help.

Using this xorg.conf file, only my NEC LCD analog monitor could display KDE while the Samsung digital can't.
Any suggestions?Thanks for your help guys, I'm halfway there.
The second monitor shows the KDE desktop, but it isn't exactly what I expected. Right now, both monitors display at 1024x768 (each) or 2048x768 (total). The larger monitor stretches and distorts the display of 1024x768 to its natural resolution at 1440x900 and it isn't what I wanted. Other than that, the dual desktop setup behaves what I expected to.
Here's a snippet of my xorg.conf that currently works:

Anyone have an idea?

Problem with dual boot after upgrade to Mountain lion
Hello Every One,
I have a Macbook pro from 2009 which had dual boot option Windows 7 + Snow Leopard.
The windows 7 had 2 partitions (C; and D: an extended partition).
I upgraded the OS X to Mountain lion. after upgrade the system showed 3 options at boot time. Mac, Windows and a recovery partition.
when i boot to windows the D: drive is gone...I mean even though i can see the partition in partition software, windows 7 stopped showing D: in "My computer".
So i used testdisk utility to get the D: drive back and now when i boot to mountain Lion i am able to access both C:(BOOTCAMP) and D: drives.
but now the problem is during boot time my Mac Book pro doesn't show the windows option.
Can some suggest a means to boot into windows 7? Also what is the purpose of recovery partition that Mountain lion adds to the system? I mean is it going to hurt if i get rid of it so that i can go back to my old configuration of 3 primary partitions (1 for windows 7 ...C: bootcamp + MountainLion) + 1 extended partition for D:
any help would be appreciated?

Hi, i really need some help with my pictures, I've only got a very basic understanding of how my phone works and have somehow put a load of albums on my phone when i plugged it into the computer-I want to delete some of them off the phone but cannot work out how to do it, when i plug my phone in i can find the photo tab but cannot actually see the pictures and can't see any delete button!!! Please can someone help me, basic explanations would be gratefully recieved xxxx
The photo sync is one way: computer to phone. To remove photos, synced to your phone, remove the check marks next to the albums/folders under the photos tab in itunes & hit the apply/sync button. They will be removed from your phone. You cannot delete photos that were synced to your phone, directly on your phone. The easiest way to manage photos synced to your phone is to create albums or folders on your computer. Move whatever photos you want on your phone into these albums/folders & then select them under the photos tab in itunes to sync to your phone. You can then remove or add photos to these various albums/folders on your computer & the itunes sync process will update your phone every time you sync.

Help with Validation Problem Please
I don't understand this validation and don't know how to fix it. I have checked my other websites and they seem fine. I don't think I have done anything different The link for the website ishttp://www.greenpatchwebsites.com/pow/index.html
and the validator is http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=www.greenpatchwebsites.com%2Fpow%2Findex.html&charset=%2 8detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&group=0
Please can you help.
Thank you very much in advance.Thanks for that. I have tried it on a new page: http://www.greenpatchwebsites.com/pow/newtest.html and here is the validator :
http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=www.greenpatchwebsites.com%2Fpow%2Fnewtest.html&charset= %28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&group=0&No200=1- unfortunately loads of errors
I also tried the recommended template:
Use the following markup as a template to create a new XHTML 1.0 document using a proper DOCTYPE. See the list below if you wish to use another document type.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">
<head>
<title>An XHTML 1.0 Strict standard template</title>
<meta http-equiv="content-type"
content="text/html;charset=utf-8" />
<meta http-equiv="Content-Style-Type" content="text/css" />
</head>
<body>
<p>… Your HTML content here …</p>
</body>
</html>
but was getting errors with that. As you can tell, I need serious help with this. Which doc type should I be using
and why doesn't Dreamweaver just do it for you when you select one?
Thanks very much again in advance. -
A week ago I was on Option 1 but due to heavy use my speed was reduced to 15.7k/sec !.I was advised to upgrade to Option 3 which I promptly did and that was done on the 29th(last week).
My speed though is still 15k/sec and I cannot watch any streaming video or BBC News Channels etc
Would some kind gentleman please look into it for me and advise.......thankyou

Slow MBP... Help with EtreCheck Results please?
Problem description:
My MBP is running incredibly slow! For instance, just typing sometimes bogs the system down, and it definitely cannot handle multitasking like it used to, or open programs quickly.
In June of 2014 my Hard Drive crashed. It was under Apple Care and they replaced it. I lost Apple Care in July, and since June it has progressively gotten slower. When Yosemite came out, I reformatted my computer as new and restored from an external hard drive back up. I have watched the activity monitor and the RAM doesn’t seem to be under any pressure (solid green all the way across), and the CPU doesn’t seem to go that high either (50%). I have tried all the initial steps of uninstalling what I thought could be slowing it down (i.e., Norton and some other things) in addition to taking away all start up programs except dropbox.
I'm willing to do just about anything to get this computer through another 18 months... and if someone could find a way to get 36 months out of it I'll give you a million points.
Thanks in advance for the community's help. You guys rock.
P.S. Had a little issue with Carbonite a while back. I think it is taken care of though.

Uninstalling Software: The Basics
Most OS X applications are completely self-contained "packages" that can be uninstalled by simply dragging the application to the Trash. Applications may create preference files that are stored in the /Home/Library/Preferences/ folder. Although they do nothing once you delete the associated application, they do take up some disk space. If you want you can look for them in the above location and delete them, too.
Some applications may install an uninstaller program that can be used to remove the application. In some cases the uninstaller may be part of the application's installer, and is invoked by clicking on a Customize button that will appear during the install process.
Some applications may install components in the /Home/Library/Applications Support/ folder. You can also check there to see if the application has created a folder. You can also delete the folder that's in the Applications Support folder. Again, they don't do anything but take up disk space once the application is trashed.
Some applications may install a startupitem or a Log In item. Startupitems are usually installed in the /Library/StartupItems/ folder and less often in the /Home/Library/StartupItems/ folder. Log In Items are set in the Accounts preferences. Open System Preferences, click on the Accounts icon, then click on the LogIn Items tab. Locate the item in the list for the application you want to remove and click on the "-" button to delete it from the list.
Some software use startup daemons or agents that are a new feature of the OS. Look for them in /Library/LaunchAgents/ and /Library/LaunchDaemons/ or in /Home/Library/LaunchAgents/.
If an application installs any other files the best way to track them down is to do a Finder search using the application name or the developer name as the search term. Unfortunately Spotlight will not look in certain folders by default. You can modify Spotlight's behavior or use a third-party search utility, EasyFind, instead.
Some applications install a receipt in the /Library/Receipts/ folder. Usually with the same name as the program or the developer. The item generally has a ".pkg" extension. Be sure you also delete this item as some programs use it to determine if it's already installed.
There are many utilities that can uninstall applications. Here is a selection:
1. AppZapper
2. AppDelete
3. Automaton
4. Hazel
5. AppCleaner
6. CleanApp
7. iTrash
8. Amnesia
9. Uninstaller
10. Spring Cleaning

I am a novice and have just completed my first animated movie. I need help with action script.
The movie is currently looped and I have created and invisible button the size of the frame with the intention that a user can click on the movie image to stop it and on second click continue the movie from where it stopped.
I have used the AS event handler method to stop the movie. I have tested it and it works. But I cannot figure suitable code to restart the movie.
Two questions;
1. am I going about the task the right way? (should I use two buttons, one stop, one start)?
2. if my approach is feasible, can anyone give me the correct AS to re-start the movie and put me out of my misery please?you can use the following after changing "yourbutton" and "yourmovieclip" to use suitable instance names:
yourbutton.onRelease=function(){
if(!this.toggle){
yourmovieclip.stop();
} else {
yourmovieclip.play();
this.toggle=!this.toggle;
