Installation of Windows XP Service pack 2 on a new hard drive

I have a Dell Precision 380 and intend to install a new hard drive.  The new hard drive will be the same mark and the same size as the original hard drive that came from Dell in the computer.  It will be a Seagate 160 GB.  I have the disk of Windows XP Operating System installation Dell provided with the computer (Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2 CD for reinstallation). It is a SATA hard drive.

After I install the new hard drive that is not partitioned or formatted, I intend to load the operating system in the same way I reformatted the original hard drive in the past.  When I reformatted the hard drive in the past, I started by pressing F12 and follow instructions on the screen and had no problems with the installation.  Everything was fine.

Now my question is the same procedure will work with the new hard disk that is not partitioned or formatted.  When I press F12, I take you through the same procedure as before?  Will be the operating system as it is installed on the new hard drive partition and format the hard disc, as he asks me questions during installation?  Will I need to do something else or simply follow the installer as it appears on the screen?  I should be grateful if you would help or advice.

Hi cbcenterplus,

Its good to hear about this issue with the system has been resolved to your satisfaction. If you have any questions in the future do not hesitate to contact.

Thanks and greetings

  • Can't reinstall XP service pack 3 on the new hard drive, will not cross of EULA

    Computer VOstro 220 (Dell) under the age of 18 months. Internal HD died and was replaced two weeks ago with a HD internal 320, the speed of 7200 Western Digital. (Micro Center, a computer store large installed the HD that I bought at the store)

    I used the OEM "reinstall Windows XP service Pack 3" DVD.  With F12 I put the computer to boot from the DVD.

    DVD boots, I chose the option to install the OS

    Fisrt I see the message that the program checks the material. No error message

    Then I see the screen with the words "Windows Setup". Five minutes later, Microsoft EULA (end-user contract) is displayed.  IT does not scroll, I used the arrow keys on the keyboard to get at the end of the EULA was waiting for some kind of "type option"I agree". But there is nothing.

    Nothing more happens. No additional configuration.

    What is the problem? What should I do to get the Windows XP installation to continue?

    Why not install the operating system?

  • Installation of Windows 7 since the DVD on the new hard drive

    My hard drive failed last week (short DST failure), I went and bought a new hard drive and was able to install it in my laptop with no problems. However, now I can't have to install Windows 7 on my computer since the disks provided with my computer when I bought it. When I insert the disc to start (after going through the BIOS options to make my start of the computer of the optical drive), it gives me the message "non system disk or disk error."

    Three drives I have are:
    'DVD Windows 7 Professional operating system'
    "Application and Driver Recovery DVD" and
    "Operating system Microsoft Windows XP Professional SP3 CD."

    My computer is the HP Probook s 4320.

    Ok.

    Using the F9 option you select the optical disk drive.

    This is the technical term for the DVD player.

  • Error code: C000009A (problems applied update registry during the installation of Windows 7 Service Pack 1)

    After installation of Windows 7 Service Pack 1, the system restarts, and before windows comes up the registry is updated.  I get an error C000009A 128115 of 387921 enforcement update (/ registry)... error that prevents the system to reboot.  Is it possible to get the system to reboot and complete the installation of the service pack.  The only way that I was able to work around this error is to restore from the system restore point before the service pack, but I want to apply the SP1 if possible.  ????

    Windows update and SP1 gave me the same problem and I used this hole day to RESOLVE.

    Windows 7 is not bootable. Safe mode Windows 7 was not bootable, - stop at classpnp.sys.  I used the line of command of the rescue disk and Linux (!) to fix it.  And then little important reading / advice on this forum.

    Error message at startup:

    C000009A application update 262832 (registry\ma 109544 operation error   (no more room on screen)

    After a few reboots failed, I tried a restore of windows rescue disk, but windows update has somehow erased all my restore point! (Argh)

    Then I looked in the log file c:\windows\winsxs\poqexec.log and found a reference to the error: (obs this folder has some 70,000 + files)

    Then I tried to add this key in the registry using regedit command line after booting from the rescue floppy.  But repeated boots showed this register does not have / save my extra key. (Strange-I should be able to change the shape of the hot spare register, or?)

    Next step was to start a live CD of Linux (Mandriva) to browse the windows system drive.

    This way, I found the c:\windows\winsxs\pending.xml (99 MB) file and may open in kwrite (Linux).  I'm looking for "atibility.resources_31bf3856ad364e35_pt - pt.

  • Attempts to installation of Windows 7 Service Pack (x 64) leads to "Bluetooth Stack Server" "AppCrash": no wireless connectivity possible!

    I realize that my question is about the hardware and drivers that are not Microsoft, but all the trouble seems to begin with the fact that the latest version of Windows Update attempts.

    I have reset the settings of update on "Automatic" after missing the guests of installation, leading to several attempts installation of Windows 7 Service Pak for x 64-based systems.

    On installation/configuration logoff never surpassed ~ 10% during "installation failed, returning from changes" message appeared before the shutdown.

    On reboot, the error message: "Bluetooth Stack server has stopped working", problem report Details indicate: "AppCrash".

    Today, for the first time in ~ a year, brought my HP Probook 4530 s to a reliable wifi hotspot 2011: "no public network detected" appeared, everyone had no problem.

    The "centre mobility Windows", which usually has a box indicating the status of LAN wireless, had this box is completely missing.

    Check the two Bluetooth and Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller (devices used for internet connectivity?) indicate that "the drivers are up to date" and "this device works correctly.

    I am running Windows Security Essentials and Malwarebytes AntiMalware.  Also recently installed the free version of SpyBot, run a daily scan.

    I've never really had any problem/detection of serious virus/malware that I'm aware of.  Windows 7 has been well up to this point.

    Also tried a system restore to BEFORE the Service Pack update attempt: it had no effect on the detection of wireless connectivity or a connection.

    If anyone can describe a troubleshooting chart that might allow me to again connect to a wifi hotspot, I would be very grateful.  Thank you.

    I should finally a solution to my inability to access a local signal of the WiFi for my laptop.

    As stated in my first post of the question, the problem started after a sudden error message "Bluetooth Stack Server."

    All the remedies, I've tried are listed above.

    This HP laptop came with a general diagnosis called HP Support Assistance program.

    Recently, I downloaded a new version of this program.

    For the first time, an icon appears in the taskbar for the "HP Connection Manager", which indicates the activation state of all wireless and Bluetooth devices.

    The following State scored to WiFi (Wireless LAN): "disabled in BIOS F10.

    Since I was able to connect to a WLAN before the Bluetooth Stack Server error, this setting IS ENABLED: it was not "manually" disabled.

    I entered the system BIOS via F10 during boot and the following path:

    "System configuration" > "Integrated device Options" > "LAN/WLAN SWITCHING" > select 'ON'.

    Rebooted the laptop normally, a check for HP Connection Manager "indicated"enabled"for the wireless LAN setting, and"Windows Mobility Center"was now a visible box for WLAN/LAN status."

    I don't know how or why the BIOS for this parameter settings were off.

    Please mark this issue as resolved, with this post as the answer.  Thanks for your suggestions.

  • How to install Windows without recovery disc - Satellite A660 with new HARD drive

    Hey,.

    Portable 500 GB HDD of my friend Toshiba Satellite A660 seems to have died.
    I tied him to my laptop on a sata dock and runs a data recovery program because nothing has been saved. The recovery takes forever, however, and she really needs his computer to work.

    Because the hard disk may be damaged in any case, I am considering buying a new hard drive and install in the Toshiba.

    How can I do this without a recovery disk, though?
    The old drive was a partition recovery on it, I think, but this seems useless with a new drive.
    Operating system is Windows 7 64 bit home edition.

    The product key is on the bottom of the laptop.
    I live in Turkey and so I don't think there is a Toshiba store is close.
    There are individual computer stores, so I'm confident, I can buy a new internal hard drive (I could find the sata dock here), but he must know what to do to install the software, etc.

    Thank you!
    Chris

    > How can I do this without a recovery disk, though?

    You either have the recovery disk or you are going to install the system using the Microsoft Windows disk.
    The necessary drivers are in internet on Toshiba UE page.

    The recovery disc can also be ordered here:

    I would suggest trying the following steps and check.

    Method 1:

    Note: Important this section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs.

    Back up the registry - http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Back-up-the-registry

    Methods 1 and 2 require changes in the registry to do. Make sure that you back up the registry before you proceed.

  • After installation of Windows 7 Service Pack 1, it is not possible to pass the graphics more

    Hello

    I am running Windows 7, 64-Bit SP1 on a Lenovo T500 with switchable graphics.

    I downloaded and installed the Service Pack 1 manually (working on the Intel card) since it does not appear on Windows Update (now I now that it was because of outdated drivers Intel) - the installation went well. Later I tried to go to my Ati card but nothing happened and I realized that the Intel driver was apparently updatesd by SP1 (had a new design of the Intel tool). After playing around I got my Ati card active now but I can't switch back to the Intel card.

    I uninstalled all the drivers graphics and deleted all graphics devices from the Device Manager and then installed the latest driver from Lenovo and also tried with the latest driver from Ati/AMD directly (11.2), but nothing has fixed my problem.

    I can right click on my PowerManager battery and select the other card on "Switchable graphics", but nothing happens - no message error but also without change.

    Every help is very appreciated.
