Situation -
User has GE 7.2.3 encrypted drive that blue screens during Windows XP load.
Attempts to resolve -
Have downloaded various HD access version utilities ISOs from the FTP site. The newer versions that say EAHD do not detect the encrytped drive. The older versions called EPHD labeled variously from 7.0 through 7.2 see the drive but do NOT accept the user and password despite the fact we know they work as we can during boot enter them and proceed through the XP load attempt. We have tried a dozen times using various boot strategies (we are booting from CD not USB), it never accepts the user and password.
We downloaded the Recover utility labeled 7.2.3 (though it extracts to a recover ISO that says 7.2.2) and attempted to decrypt the drive. It does accept the username and password, generates the keys and says the password is correct. However, it then says this option is not available and we must execute a one-time password option. We do not know how to provide this password and may not have the resources to do so.
Is there some way to move forward for us? One would think with the appropriate username and password that this *should* work. We are unsure if previous attempts to log in to the EP on boot have flagged the system to require some sort of unlock or somesuch before decryption. We suspect that possibly the problem running the EPHD access utility may be version related as we do not have nor can find one that specifically references version 7.2.3 - we'd be willing to try that but it does not show up on the FTP site.
Any assistance or advice appreciated.
