Infected disk formatting; Installing XP Home Edition and it calls for disc SP1

I have an old pc that has been infected by a virus, spyware, and Trojan horse. I was able to log in safe mode and run anti-virus programs and remove most of the problems finnally. I wanted to format the hard drive and start over to make sure you have a clean pc. I have Windows XP Home Edition. After copying the files requested the installation of the service Pack 1 cd that I don't have. However, I have the SP 2 cd that I put in but it didn't recognize the cd or find the file that it was seeking to continue the installation. What should I do to clear the checkpoint of the installation?

Hi RandyZeuske,

You try to upgrade Windows XP on-site. This operation reinstalls Windows XP to the same folder on your computer where it was originally installed.

However, before you perform the upgrade on Windows XP site, back up important data to another location as disc CD/DVD, USB etc.

For more information, see this link.

How to perform an upgrade on the spot (reinstallation) of Windows XP

If Windows XP was preinstalled on the computer, you can contact your computer manufacturer to order Windows XP install disks.

Hope the helps of information.

Please post back and we do know.

    Hello

  • The disk (with no key) installed Vista Home Premium, and the license key OEM is for... Home Basic!

    I recently did a clean install with the disc that came with my Dell XPS6400 (bought in the auction) local computer, which had only "Vista 32bits" written on it and no product key.  I thought I could use the key on the sticker on the underside of the computer OEM license, even if the 2 characters in the 3rd section were partially missing - they had to be one of the other four.  When OEM license was initially considered valid, I realized that I had not yet downloaded a service pack, but after that, he was still to come as being invalid!  Then, I found that the version of Vista that was on the disc was "Home Premium" and the OEM for "Home Basic" license key  Do I have to reinstall the whole system, drivers, etc., in order to establish the upgrade?  (Please say "NO", there is an easier way to do this!    Here's the MGADiag. -I hope it helps.  :-}

    The product key on the bottom will work for what he says he is, Windows Home Basic Edition.

    Reinstall the correct Systyem, Windows Home Edition basic operation to use this product key.

    And Microsoft sells more than Vista.

    To reinstall Vista Home Basic read this information.

    You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

    They should do this for a small fee.

    And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought, not that one 32-bit, vista, your computer must be on the hard drive to reinstall recovery Partition Vista to how you bought your computer, which may or may not work after the installation of the wrong edition.

    The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)

    Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.

    Ask them to the proper key sequence.

    Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

    If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

    You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

    Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

    And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

    Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

    "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

    http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html

    And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.

    And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.

  • I try to install XP Home Edition on Windows 7

    Hello, I've been everywhere trying to solve the problem below and hope you can help me.

    I have a HP Pavilion Elite - HPE 180 t - Win 7 64 bit OS.

    System Info 9 physical memory GB - memory Modules 5 - video Card1.8GB GeForct NVIDIA GTX 260 (2 DVI, HDMI and VGA adapters) - Intel(R) Core (TM) i7 CPU 950 @3. 07 GHz - 8 GB of SDRAM DDR3-1 066 MHz (4 DIMMs) - 1 HDD 1 TB 7200 RPM SATA 3 Gb/s.

    Problem: I don't want Windows 7 and I try to install XP Home Edition with Service Pack 2 - Full Version/CD ROM.  I put the disc in and the installation option is grayed out.  What should I do to prepare my system to accept the installation?  I have my backed up system.  If I erased my hard drive would that work?  Is it possible to install over Win 7 or have two operating systems installed? I've seen advise to set the BIOS but cannot figure out how to display the screen upward at the start.  I looked in the manual of HP and do not find the information.

    Any direction is most appreciated.

    Hello

    Windows XP is an operating system not supported and XP installation may void your warranty.

    If you want to continue using XP, I would make sure that create you HP recovery discs before you start anything.  Wipe the hard drive should allow you to install XP.  I don't know what are the options you have the disk to install XP but I get an advanced option and try a Dual Boot or install double if you want to run two operating systems.  To help you, do a search for "dual boot windows 7 and XP" or something similar and browse the results.
