How to set the intall xp through c: promt

I tried to reformat my laptop from NEC to re - install XP Home, but the problem is the built-in keyboard defective, im using the external keyboard and I could not put the bios Setup to restart from xp installation cd. I tried to install / reformat using thec: prompt, I did once before but I couldn't remember the command I use to do (someone does it for me).  I intend to donate a laptop said to the less fortunate students for their expertise to use a computer, and it can be used in other activities of the school.  This is an old laptop P3 795 mhz 504 80 GB of RAM, thanks

I don't know what you want to do. However, try this and see if it does what you need:

With Windows XP running as usual, open the command prompt and type

d:\setup

Otherwise, open my COMPUTER. Select the CD or DVD drive that contains the Windows XP CD. Click it to get a list of files on the disc. Click on Setup.

In each case follow the on-screen instructions and make a new facility on the former.

Note that this isn't really a new installation. To do this, you have to start from the CD or the DVD, delete these partitions and then install a new system (as you pointed out).

If you have enough space on the hard disk, you can add another copy of XP on a partition (in addition to those currently on the hard disk). It would be a dualboot arrangement and does not seem to be what you want. Woud you need to shrink the partition that is using a partitioning utility (Acronis Disk Director, for example). Then boot XP as usual, launch the installer and install to the new, added partition. After the new system is completed, you can set the new one to be the default boot system, delete the old partition. Expand the new to fill the HD. If it seems "doable" for you, a person may provide further instructions.

Side to replace the faulty keyboard. That's all I can suggest based on the information at hand. Maybe someone else knows a better workaround solution.

Good luck.

  • How to set the printer wireless ad Hoc mode to CP1025nw with automatic stop is off? IE never automatic.

    How to set the printer wireless ad Hoc mode to CP1025nw with automatic stop is off? IE never automatic.

    Thank you very much for your help, if necessary.

    Quite a few questions, send, but I will do what I can to answer them.

    I recommend first to buy a router, even if it's one you won't connect to internet and it network with others your PC and printer. This will give you the best features and the results of what you're trying to do.

    In addition, the automatic stop of the printer function can be disabled and is not affected by the type of connection. Usually, you can go through the configuration Menu and select tools to change the options there on the energy saving features.

    Finally, the auto off function on your computer is a Windows question, but one easy answer. If you're on a laptop, you can right click on the battery in the tray (lower right corner) and change the settings for energy conservation.

    You might be better off installing the printer via the USB cord and alternately inspiring when you use it, but which is not optimal if you are printing only a few documents on an irregular basis. A network connection is the easiest to manage across multiple computers, honesty, but you have certain requirements for this connection and limits as well.

    I hope this information is useful!

  • How to set the timeout of read when using channelReader.ReadWaveform?

    I'm using a USB-6210/a. data acquisition, and it works fine until I have to take a longer than 10 s waveform.

    When I take a longer than wave form, I get the error 200284, "some or all of the requested samples are not yet acquired.  To wait for the samples become available use longer read timeout... »

    No problem, I thought, I'll just put a longer period.  I searched through the documentation, and the timeout only I found was the watchdog timeout.  When I wanted a longer value, I get code 200452 State - specific property is not supported by the device or is not applicable to the task.

    I use the code in the example AcqVoltageSamples_IntClk.2008 .net with c# in Visual Studio 2008, .net 3.5 sp1.

    How to set the timeout so that ReadWaveform() is not the time?

    Here is the code:

    privateAnalogMultiChannelReaderchannelReader;

    privateAnalogWaveform awf;

    publicList GetWaveForm()

    {

    Try

    {

    Task getWaveform = newTask();

    getWaveform.AIChannels.CreateVoltageChannel (Channel,"", TerminalConfiguration, RangeMinimum,

    RangeMaximum, AIVoltageUnits.Volts);

    getWaveform.Timing.ConfigureSampleClock ("", SampleRate, SampleClockActiveEdge.Rising,)

    SampleQuantityMode.FiniteSamples, NumSamples);

    getWaveform.Control (TaskAction.Verify);

    channelReader = new AnalogMultiChannelReader (getWaveform.Stream);

    AnalogWaveformdata = channelReader.ReadWaveform (NumSamples);

    AWF = data [0];

    samples As new List();

    for (inti = 0; i)

    returnsamples;

    }

    catch (DaqExceptionexception)

    {

    MessageBox.Show (exception. (Message);

    }

    List of l = newList();

    return l;

    }

  • How to set the LOV when in a pop up

    Hello!!!

    We work with ADF 11 g and the user wants to use a LOV a field during their research and another when they change the information in a pop-.

    I have the popup work and we may change the information but I can't understand how to have a different of LOV show when the user is in the pop-.

    I've set the attribute VO use 2 LOV and I added a transitional attribute to the VO and picked up as a list of value switch but I can't figure out how to set the transient attribute when the pop-up opens
    so that it will use the 2nd LOV while in the pop-up etc and then together is back to normal when they are not on the shortcut menu.

    Everyone comes through this?

    Thanks in advance.

    The best solution I found for this was using two different views and then link them. This allows a different LOV will basically be attributed for the same attribute. Be sure to use the correct view on the specific form for the desired LOV.
