View 2 Replies View RelatedI have an old dell that had windows ME on it (yuck) About 3 years ago, I upgraded to XP and installed service pack 2. Since then I have set up 2 laptops, broadband and a wireless network. But the old dell in the office (the main one that the high speed modem and linksys is plugged into) needs to have the operating system re-installed again. It has reached its half life...a nuisance, a pain, unbearable, unusable! When I tried to re-install it wouldnt let me because the version on the computer is a newer version then the one on the disk.

Now I had to change it again, due to one PCI slot was dead. So far everything was ok.But, to activate the OS was now a "plenty big" problem.
Somehow the technician managed to do it at his own place. Suddenly, I was going to download a plug-in program to my Microsoft Publisher 2002, of course validation was required. No problem - I had done that several times during the last 3 yeras and everything has been ok. But not this time. Validation failed, Microsoft announced. "The Office XP Pro has to be activated, start any Office program, go to Help activate product" - No problem, easy job.
I have been trying to clen up an old computer to give away. It is a 2002-vintage desktop with 512MB ram.

I have the OEM xp disk that came with it but I have tried 15 times to install xp and I can't. Is there anything I can do to fix this?

View 13 Replies View RelatedI shut off the computer and turning it back on couldn't boot up windows. It gave the windows wasn't shut down properly and I tried the normal restart option and it would just give a black screen with a blinking _ and then nothing happens. Tried loading in safe mode but it gets to mup.sys then "Press Esc to cancel SPTD.sys" flashes below and whether I press Esc or let it be, nothing happens after that.
I tried popping in the windows xp disc that came with the laptop, boot from disc, it starts up but then after loading everything, it then says "Windows is starting up" the disc stops spinning then nothing happens. I tried popping in a windows vista disc and it says "Windows is loading files" with a progress bar, when it fills up, I get stuck with a blank black screen the disc stops spinning and then nothing happens.
I just corrected my problem by reinstalling the operating system from a CD for windows XP... The problem now is there is NO audio device, I cannot download some of programs from the CD's--it can't find the installation program.I have no sound and cannot donwload some of the programs that came with this computer.

I would like to have a new operating system XP (like what I have on my PC at home)I tried to do a clean install on the latptop with format c: s/ (to save the system files) and to wipe the harddrive clean. I then installed MS XP Home edition. When it boots up, it shows I have the two operating systems on the harddrive. Maybe that isn't a problem, but I would think it would take up harddrive space.

View 3 Replies View RelatedFor some reason windows xp is not loading and it says windows did not start succesfully. A recent hardware or software change might have caused this. When i try to start it on safe mode it says a problem has been detected and windows has shut down to prevent damage to the computer.
View 14 Replies View RelatedI've tried to install Windows Xp Pro on my raid 0 array (2 x 320Gb Seagate drives), but I can't get Xp to recognize it. The raid option is enabled in the bios and when the setup ask for it, I load the SATA/RAID drivers from Gygabyte but it only allow me to see the other 2 non-raid sata drives. I've setup the array with the Intel tool in my bios (Gygabyte 965P-DQ6, F3 bios) and it suposed to be up and running. In fact, I can see it when I boot into the Windows Xp installed on my other drive.
View 14 Replies View RelatedI have a laptop that is about 3.5 years old - out of warranty of course. I messed something up, badly. I would like to re-install Windows XP and start fresh however. I can't find the CD that supposedly came with the system. So i have Windows XP Home on the computer already, and it works for the most part. But i need to start fresh. But without the CD, i'm stuck. (no hidden partitions, no restore on the harddrive). It's a Dell 700m. I can run to Staples and buy a WinXP Upgrade CD for $99. Will this work on my system? I don't want to spend any more time trying to fix my system - i've tried just about everythng and quite frankly, my time is worth more than the cost of the program. So what do you think? Will a store bought WinXP Home UPGRADE disc do the trick?

View 14 Replies View RelatedGoal: To install windows on an IDE drive, located on Primary IDE Master.
Problem: When booting from the windows cd, it will do the initial install just fine (when it's in the CMD looking bootup). Then when it finishes and restarts the computer, it will boot into the exact same 'installing windows' setup screen. It will never get 'into' windows and 'continue' the setup via the GUI like usual (in which case it would give an approx time left for install).Troubleshooting Tried: If I take the windows cd out on that reboot (right after the first install), it will just display an error regarding "No System Disk" (forgot the exact error). The only thing it wants to do is boot off the windows cd and reinstall all over again. This is on a new computer build.
decided to remove the battery from my motherboard hoping to reset some bios settings
but on doing this I pulled out some wires, that where just under the battery by mistake theres five speghetti looking wires, no idea where they go. there is two places i can put them under the battery or beside it ,but no sure how, looks like this :::.: and there is a identical one beside it. one connection with two holes has Reset SW written on it, another two hole one has HDD LEED, and M/B SW, then two with one hole each green and white wire, help hate spaghetti. I was going to remove the battery for a few hours, then try to do a clean install, instead i let all hell loose.

How can this be happening and how do I fix it? Thanks. I have an os on now but it is corrupted and I cannot get online there are plenty of files missing because I pressed skip this file plenty of times just to get some sort of operating system on. I really need help I am typing this on another pc.
