Getting family XP Edition installation diskettes

Hello

I have several computers running different versions of XP Home, XP Prof, Vista and Windows 7.

The computer running XP Home just did an update (about 12 or 13 updates have been downloaded and installed - I think it's the SP3 update).   The computer does not start in Windows XP Home Edition now.

I read posts on the way to try to solve this problem, but I apparently need installation of this program-specific records:

http://www.Microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=15491F07-99F7-4A2D-983D-81C2137FF464 & displaylang = in

Right now I'm on computer running Windows 7 - wife I can download the above file on a CD, but when I try to do six disks, it does nothing.  I tried to do the same thing with one of my computers running XP Prof (SP1), but it will not create the six discs there either.  Of course, I just want to run it on the computer that does not have XP Home Edition, but it is the problem computer and will not work it is (Catch 22 comes to mind).

Any thoughts?

This computer information is how make our life - if a facility upgrade of Windows 7 purchased locally could preserve all emails from clients of internet Explorer in Outlook Express and leapfrog on this mess so I'd be happy to do so.

Thanks in advance!

How to get the installation discs for Windows XP for installation of boot floppies

Probably, the large file must be on the hard drive that the installation needs to extract the files and sometimes it does not work on the CD as it tries to put the temporary files on the CD. Just a thought.

Have you noticed that the Windows XP CD is bootable.

Who should download the installation diskettes?

You must download the installation diskettes if all the following conditions are met:

  • You install a new version, full of the retail Windows XP.

    Note An upgrade to Windows XP installation does not require the installation diskettes.

  • You have a working CD drive, but you cannot start your computer from your CD-ROM.
  • You can start your computer with a floppy drive.

Note The Windows XP installation CD is a bootable floppy and can be used to start Windows. When you use the Windows XP installation CD to start your computer, you can use the Windows Recovery Console to help recover the system software. For more information, click on the number below to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

Maybe what you should look at is the recovery console

    How to reinstall Vista

    Contact the manufacturer of the laptop computer and ask them to send you to vista recovery disks to reinstall the operating system back as it was when you bought it

    they do it for a nominal cost of $

    also ask them if you have a recovery partition on your hard drive to get back to the way you bought

    you would normally press F8, F9, F10 or F11 or Alt + F10 or 0 to start to start the recovery process according to the manufacturer

    Ask them of the exact key sequence

    or borrow a vista microsoft dvd; not a HP, Acer recovery disk etc

    Make sure that you borrow the correct 32-bit or 64-bit microsoft dvd to your computer

    A Google search for "[insert the name of the file]" grown up nothing. When you get no hits for a filename on Google, chances are high that it is a malicious program file. You did not when you get the message. If it's only at startup, either you have uninstalled the malware program or your antivirus/antispyware program did. In all cases, a reference has been left in the boot file. You can remove the reference by managing your startup. If you get the message during regular time on the computer and not not only at startup, your computer is still infected.

    Norton will do the job of cleaning and registry cleaners are garbage who at best will not do anything and the worst risk damage to your Windows installation.

    First of all, make sure that the computer is really free of virus/malware through these systematically - General malware removal steps http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/page2.html#Removing_Malware . Then, if the computer is really clean and you still receive the message, manage your Startup to remove the reference to the malware:

    Start > run > msconfig [Enter]

    This will open the System Configuration utility. Look under the Startup tab and find the likely culprit. Uncheck the box next to its name, apply and OK out. You don't need to restart immediately, but next time you do, you will get a dialog box saying that you have used the utility. Just check the box that says in effect, "don't mind to this subject again".

  • Error - the application or DLL is not a valid windows image. Please check this against your installation diskette when trying to open a program or start the computer.

    Original title: bad image.

    I get two errors of bad image whenever I open a program or start a computer, for each program.  the error that says "the application or DLL is not a valid windows image. "Please check this against your installation diskette" I don't have any disk and don't know what to do.

    These file names, look a little suspicious and didn't get good Google search results, so I think that the first thing to do is to tell us a little about your system.  Now you can enjoy when you report a problem, provide you with any error messages you see and not a part of it (not paraphrase either).

    The second thing to do is to try to be reasonably sure that your system is free of malware and then if you have these problems, you can fix them (which would be the third thing to do).

    I still wonder why the Microsoft Support Engineer made you reference to an article that makes no sense at all...

    The first thing to do:

    Unfortunately, MS Answers forums does not prompt for any information system when a new question is asked, so we don't know anything on your system.

    Because the Microsoft Answers forum does not ask for any type of information system when a new question is asked so we don't know anything about your system.  Not knowing the basic information a problem prolongs the frustration and the agony of these issues.

    Thank you MS Answers, allowing the resolution of simple problems as frustrating and a lot of time as possible.

    Provide information on your system, the better you can:

    What is your system brand and model?

    Your system have IDE or SATA disks?

    Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..

    The question was preceded by a loss of power, aborted reboot or abnormal termination?  (this includes the plug pulling, buttons power, remove the battery, etc.)

    The afflicted system has a working CD/DVD (internal or external) drive?

    You have a true bootable XP installation CD (it is not the same as any recovery CD provided with your system)?

    The second thing to do:

    Download, install, update and do a full scan with these free malware detection programs:
    Malwarebytes (MMFA): http://malwarebytes.org/
    SUPERAntiSpyware: (SAS): http://www.superantispyware.com/
    They can be uninstalled later if you wish.
    The third thing to do:

    Restart your computer and solve the outstanding issues.

  • Error "the application or DLL C;|WINDOWS\system32\NCObjAPI.DLL is not a valid Windows image. "Please check this against your installation diskette."

    Original title: lockout

    I get a black screen with the message from the application or DLL C;|WINDOWS\system32\NCObjAPI.DLL is not a valid Windows image. Please check this against your installation diskette.

    Hey Todd-Cindy-MorganBurris,

    1. Did you the latest changes on the computer?
    2. When was the last time it was working fine?
    3. You have security software installed on the computer?
    4. You are able to boot into Windows after the error message?

    Method 1

    If you are unable to boot into Windows then check if the problem persists in safe mode.

    A description of the options to start in Windows XP Mode

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/315222

    Method 2

    If the problem does not persist in safe mode, then it is possible that some third-party programs installed on the computer is causing the problem.

    I suggest that you put the computer in a clean boot state and check if it helps.

    To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows XP by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

    See section to learn more about how to clean boot.

    How to configure Windows XP to start in a "clean boot" State

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/310353

    Reset the computer to start as usual

    When you are finished troubleshooting, follow these steps to reset the computer to start as usual:

    (a) click Start, type msconfig in the search box and press ENTER.

    (b) If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password or click on continue.

    (c) under the general tab, click the Normal startup option, and then click OK.

    (d) when you are prompted to restart the computer, click on restart.

    Method 3

    If you can boot into safe mode and clean boot procedure don't help then I would suggest that scan you SFC on the computer that will search the corrupted system files and check if that helps.

    The analysis may take some time, so be patient. Windows allows to fix corrupt or missing files it finds. If the information of the installation CD is required to fix the problem, you may be asked to insert your Windows XP installation CD.

    The Application or DLL C;\program~1\Google\Google~1\Google62~1.DLL is not a valid Windows image. Please check this against your installation diskette.   I get this message all the time that I can still use my computer, but it is very annoying, I'd be very grateful for the help!

    Scan your computer with Malwarebytes. Get rid of AVG and get the free version of Avast (free if you can afford it). Get rid of Iobit. It doesn't help. Get rid of the advanced system of care. It will do more harm than good.

  • Not able to install the application, asking family SMEs of installation

    Original title: iam not able to install the app it ask family SMEs of installation

    IAM able to install apps it ask some family configuration

    Hello

    Thanks for posting your query to the Microsoft forum. I will definitely help you with this.

    I would like to know;

    1. What you are trying to install applications?
    2. You are the administrator of your computer?

    You can set up a family safety account or you may be referred by the primary user. For the children of family security controlled, if game Restrictions are lit, depending on the setting you have (lower than 10, teen, mature etc), your child will be able to download applications that meet the coast.

    Here's what I suggest, if you wish to:

    1. Go to https://familysafety.microsoft.com and login as parent
    2. Check the setting of the game.

    You can do two things

    • Put out of the game restrictions or
    • Change the restriction of adult game

    Once your child has downloaded the application, parent go back to the family site, turn on the Restriction of game or set the game side to one appropriate for your child.

    For more information:

    Use security for the family with the Windows store

    Also, in the list of game for your childs account, make sure that the app is in the whitelist if your username already has but gets blocked by parental control due to permissions issue.

    Let us know if you need more assistance. We will be happy to help you.
