  Hello John

  It is not easy to understand the whole situation, especially the part with the virus.
  In my opinion, Windows XP Home edition installation should not be problematic.

  What you need is Windows XP Home SP2 or SP3 and driver SATA edition disc. Without SATA driver disk HARD will be not visible to Windows XP Home edition.

  I HAVE A TOTALLY VIRGIN (NOTHING on the HDD) computer PORTABLE TOSHIBA, I HAVE MY RESTORE DISKS for VISTA BUT CANT SEEM to GET THE OS installed on MY LAPTOP... Please help

  As a general rule, the installation - insert the installation disc, restart the computer and boot from the installation disc.

  BIOS - how to enter the BIOS and change Boot Order To Boot from CD/DVD

  The computer might need to be set to boot from the DVD drive.

  Each computer is different, when you turn on the computer, it should tell you what button to push to get into the BIOS. It is usually one of the following options and you have to push it in the first 5 seconds:

  F1 F2 F10 F12 ESC LED

  Once in the BIOS find the menu with the boot sequence and change it if it starts from the CD/DVD drive first. Each computer is a little different for this process as well, so I can't give exact directions.

  If you can start still not install it:

  Looks like you got the installation discs for the manufacturer of OEM computer, if so those are modified OEM Windows 7 install disks (they aren't the installation discs for Microsoft) and the best answer may come by contacting the manufacturer of OEM computers, because the changes they did make the different installation process then a normal installation disc.

  If you are not able to boot to the desktop and then remove the external devices except the keyboard and mouse, perform a chkdsk from the recovery console and then try to install Windows.

  To run chkdsk from the Windows Recovery console. You can check the links for a description of the Windows XP Recovery Console

More recently, Microsoft ended the availability to reinstall media that you can download as a. File ISO in Digital River, which is a digital reproduction of an optical disc.

  It was particularly convenient for people who could not easily get the manufacturer's recovery media, did not want to pay the fees required to get or preferred a clean configuration without the software packaged manufacturers or even a recovery partition does not work. It's easy to use, all you had to do was reinstall and reactivate using the product key located on the certificate of authenticity and download all the drivers on the manufacturers website.

  First of all - what you were doing was not a legitimate path in the first place.  The Dell OEM was probably already used on a Dell system at some point.

  Second - to activate Windows XP Professional OEM, you need a product key for Windows XP Professional OEM.  No, the Windows 7 licenses will not help you.

  Probably your only choice (and is not the best) is to locate someone sell Windows XP Professional on the Internet, find the provider that you can trust most, purchase and use of the CD and the product key you get to install.
