I'm trying to re - install windows 7

• When I tried to re install Windows XP, I received an "unexpected error" at the end of the installation. The computer then restarts and it gives me the error again.

  Hello

  I did a clean install on winxp pro, it ended by an "unexpected error", it will not install, shows me the error and restart try to reinstall and same error. I checked around and it could be due to the intallation disk which was scratched and unable to read the files (I tried the disk image and failed). I made a copy of the disc as soon as possible, but it is bootable. I tried putting in the cd copied, tried to locate the file but could not (don't kn OW the drive and folder).

  Is there a way to make the copy bootable cd? (in my pc, I made a copy of the Setup disk) or is it all the same to overcome this obstacle?

  Thanks in advance.

• Problem using Bootcamp to install Windows 8.1 MacBook Pro

  Hello

  I have a MacBook Pro (retina, mid-2012) running OS X El Capitan v10.11.1. About two years ago, I installed Windows 8.1 using boot camp with no problems. Since then, I upgraded HDD from the laptop of the original 500 GB SSD to a Transcend JetDrive 725 960 GB SATA III. Note, this is the only upgrade material I have made to the computer. Following this hardware upgrade that I decided to only restore my Macintosh HD, or unfortunately I will not restore the Bootcamp partition.

  I am now trying to install Windows 8.1 using training camp again, but unfortunately a few problems that prevent quick installation, I've experienced in the past. I have read this problem a lot but have not found a solution that works for me. Here are the steps that I've repeated several times:

  -Download an ISO of 64 bit Windows 8.1 since: https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/software-download/windows8ISO.

  -Connect Force SanDisk Cruzer 8 GB USB 2.0 support

  -run Assistant Boot Camp

  -check all the tasks and continue

  -create a 60 GB partition

  -computer restarts automatically, and a windows setup screen

  -Enter the serial number of the product

  -Select installation upgrade, see here: http://s20.postimg.org/t7wy0siod/Photo_07_12_2015_12_16_23.jpg

  -PROBLEM: I am told that the installation cannot complete, see here: http://s20.postimg.org/day642qa5/Photo_07_12_2015_12_16_31.jpg

  I repeated this a few times with several USB 2.0 flash drives, but with the same results. I also tried selecting ' Custom: install Windows only (Advanced) ", but the next screen does not allow installation on the bootcamp partition, see here: http://s20.postimg.org/3mkq0xvgt/Photo_07_12_2015_12_15_09.jpgand here: http://s20.postimg.org/5pv58lv9p/Photo_07_12_2015_12_15_00.jpg "

  I would be grateful if someone could please help with this problem.

  Thank you

  It is the expected behavior. OS X does not have a license for the creation of NTFS. It creates a FAT partition. After the error, select the Format for only the partition named Bootcamp (do not use another partition) and let the installer to format it to NTFS and continue the installation.

  Upgrade will not work, because there is no previous installation of Windows to upgrade. You see the error message is correct.

• Error then re install windows XP sp 3 on HP mini 110

  HP Mini 110

  1/160 10.1 Intel Atom

  Windows XP sp3

  I tried to re install Windows Xp I received from HP.  I recently bought the computer from rent a Center.  There is no network driver.  I try to save up on PC to a time more early to see if there were drivers then.  I found myself with a password protected sign in which I had no idea what was the password.

  I called HP and they sent me 3 discs.  One with the operating system and the other two.  Application and Driver Recovery DVD and Application Recovery DVD, Microsoft Works 9.0.

  I deleted the partition the with the copy of windows and then reformat the drive.  I have re installed windows XP.  Once he was done, I went to change the floppy and install the applications.  The discs appear not on the PC.   I got a message there is nothing in the drive.  Also, he kept popping up messages that he detected new hardware, showed several types of different materials. None of the drivers could not be found and I would get the messaged that the device will not work properly.  I went to the Device Manager and deleted all conflicts.

  I tried to connect it to the internet in different ways with no luck.   I try to connect directly to the modem.  I also tried and wireless g USB.  Nothing did not work.

  I decided to try to repair the installation.  Maybe I had missed something and pulled out the drive too soon.

  I took R for repair and asked which copy I wanted to fix.  I didn't know what they were talking about.  I tried several different orders and asked the administrator password.  Nothing that I entered was correct.  After that 3 times I received a message that I was locked.

  I decided to go ahead and do a complete re install.  I rebooted and picked up all over again.  The installation has started and got 39 minutes left and an error message pops up saying:

  Setup could not register the OLE Control C:\Program Files\Common Files\System\Ole DB\msdaps.dll because of the following error.

  LoadLibrary returned the error 999 (3e7)

  Setup had problems to register the OLE control following DDL

  C:\Program Files\Fichiers communs\System\Ole DB\sqloledb.dll

  Contact your system administrator, who can help diagnose this problem.

  I rebooted the system and he goes back to trying to reinstall windows and continues to go to a certain point, and the message appears again.  I'm stuck and have no idea what to do next.

  Any help would be appreciated.

  You must start from the disc 1 again.
