View 11 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.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI recently had my computer ( AMD Athlon 3000+ ) ( Asrock K8 Combo-Z ) ( Seagate 200GB HDD ) running fine at 2.40GHz.I decided to push it to 2.50Ghz so I did. But then XP gave me an NTLDR error. "NTLDR is missing, Press Ctrl Alt Del to restart...". I read around on this forum and found out the best way to fix this is to use the Windows XP Install Disc -Recovery app.I have another problem though. When I insert the disc it says "Press any key to boot..",after that screen it says "Inspecting computer's hardware.." and then just goes to a blank screen.

Got a fatal error message and everything locked up. I ended up shutting down and when I turned the computer on again it said no operating system found. Where did I screw up?
