original title: new hard drive and vistaHello
strange that you can request that
HP computers have been known to not let you install Vista on a non HP bought replacement hard drive
There were a few posters with this problem here
If the OEM disc for this particular laptop, you should be able to reinstall it as many times as you want as long as you have not changed the main material (the motherboard)
You can change the hard drives, RAM, etc.

Hi Bobby Collas,.You must have a copy of the installation CD without which you can not re - install the OS again.If it were an Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) installation, you can restore the factory settings. Contact the manufacturer to do the same. -
Installation to Pre-service Pack version of win xp on the hard drives of high capacity
Hello! I have a version of win xp professional - it's the version before he had services packs! I want to install a new HD 1 TB as disk 0 and want to put my xp pro on it, however, the large capacity disks (more than 137MB if memory serves) are not supported by versions of xp before service pack 2. How can I format my new HD and install xp pro and still have the capacity to 1 TB? The HD I replace a service pack 3 on it. Is it possible that I can transfer the pro/sp3 of xp on the new HD or is there some files that I can wear over my installation of xp pro/sp3? Thanks for your help!

Original title: problem after installing Windows Service Pack 3 on Windows XP Home Media edition pc
My pc runs Windows XP Home Media edition. I installed Windows Service Pack 3 successfully, or so I thought. Whenever I turn on my pc a box opens indicating "files which are required for Windows to run properly have been replaced by unrecognized versions." To maintain the stability of the system. Windows must restore the original versions of these files. Install your Windows XP Professional CD2. I don't have any Windows XP Professional CD that I use the Home Media Edition. If I press Cancel repeatedly, the window disappears to return with the same information, but ask me to install Windows XP Professional CD3. How can I stop this happening?
Hello
Step 1: I suggest you perform the SFC scan on the computer and check.
SFC tool scans system files and replaces incorrect versions of system files by using the correct versions.
To run the System File Checker tool, follow these steps:
1. Click Start and type cmd in the box start the search.
2. right click on cmd in the list programs and then click Run as administrator.
If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click on continue
3. at the command prompt, type the following line and press ENTER:sfc/scannow
Step 2: Also, look for error messages in the event viewer. If you find error messages after return the exact error message so that we can help you better.

bastyav,
We use the exact and some error message in more detail on the issue. This problem occurs with any file on the disk or only some of them? You are logged as administrator? Has anything changed recently (hardware or software)?The first thing I would say to run a Virus scan and malware. If you do not have an antivirus program, then you can get one here: http://www.microsoft.com/Security_essentials/
If there are no problems found then not try the following steps:

so, I'm running vista 64 bit basic, I want to do a fresh install,
but my drive is very early (noservice packs ect) can I download of ms a basic family of complete up-to-date vista 64-bit with sp2 with my cd key? or should I shut up and make from my cd and cope? If I do a reinstall should I reinstall all my programs as well?
Hello yaleblor,
You can download the full SP2 for Vista from here: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=16468
Save the file to a CD/DVD or USB key.
Once you have the service pack downloaded file, you can use your current Vista CD to install a fresh copy of Windows Vista on your C: drive. Once you have installed Vista you can install service pack 2 directly from the CD/DVD or USB you originally stored it on. All you then need to do is to run the Windows updates to update your system completely.
You can find out how to do a clean install by looking at this link from my Web site: http://vistasupport.mvps.org/install_windows_vista.htm
After you install Windows Vista, you will need to re - install all your programs, so make sure that you have all the programs by hand before starting to consider reinstalling Windows.
