Installing XP on an Ubuntu machine

I have:
Started with a diskette of W98.
Deleted Linux partitions
Created a DOS partition.
Formatted.
Run the FDISK /MBR command to remove GRUB from the MBR.

I always get "a problem has been detected and Windows has shut down to prevent damage to your computer. Check for viruses on your computer etc etc etc.

What should I do to install XP?

You need set the SATA mode in the BIOS from AHCI to compatibility.

  • Install Labview application on vista machine.

    A fairly new programmer, I wrote an application in Labview 8.6 and built an installer which works fine on XP but when I try to install it on a Vista machine, I get an error as follows:

    z:\...\Volume\setup.exe the parameter is incorrect.

    As I say on XP Pro, no problem.  Anyone has any ideas that might help?

    I guess the z: drive letter you are trying to install the software from a network drive. Try to copy the Setup program on a local drive and install from there. I had problems calling installers directly from network resources in Vista.

  • Why the * My Genuine Windows 7 Key fails every time I have install on a new virtual machine?

    Hello

    I spend computers constantly in my work.  I have often install new hard drives and move machines, as part of my work.  I bought Windows 7 and have never installed on a machine at a time.  Calling your woefully inadequate to voice recognition phone system to tell you that I indeed expect to install the operating system I paid for * the * out of me.

    I already spent a MacBook for my main machine; you're lucky I am on Windows at all.  In general, I installed Linux on my other machines.  Each installation of my Windows 7 key is a new chance for you to make me not interested in Windows 10.  Each. Unique. Time. (I have to call to 'allow' my installations because that your automatic authorization is either one) broke, or b) is set up to discourage people to install your operating system either.

    Is it possible to add it please my Windows 7 key to a list of 'Yes, this person's owner  Cause I'm in anger.

    Sincerely,

    William Curtis Jarrell

    There is a limit to how many times you can move a version of Windows from one computer to another, once you exceed this limit (typically 5 times) then phone activation is required.

    Why; too often people install Windows on more than one PC without deleting the previous computer. (A license is a key a PC).

  • I have an old iso of windows 7 at my University and I want to install it on a new machine.

    I have an old iso of windows 7 at my University and I want to install it on a new machine. The terms of use of installation of mention that it subject to the original agreement of the University. I have graduated and am no longer a student. Can I use this iso standard and buy a product key after installation? Or I have to buy a new package of windows 7?

    If I can use the disk is it a place to buy a product key on microsofts website? I kind of remember a possibility to buy a key during the activation process, but I don't want to install this version and have to start over.

    I have an old iso of windows 7 at my University and I want to install it on a new machine. The terms of use of installation of mention that it subject to the original agreement of the University. I have graduated and am no longer a student. Can I use this iso standard and buy a product key after installation? Or I have to buy a new package of windows 7?

    Yes, you can use the same key and buy a new product key (same edition). Of course, you can simply buy a retail box package in order to get the key. There is no digital distribution of the keys (if you find one, they are illegal).

    If I can use the disk is it a place to buy a product key on microsofts website?

    No, you buy the retail package to get the key.

    I kind of remember a possibility to buy a key during the activation process, but I don't want to install this version and have to start over.

    You can try to use the key if you still have it and try the activation of the phone.

  • I just got Adobe CC on my work computer. Previously, it was possible to install the Adobe C6 also on the PC at home on the same license? Is it also possible with Adobe CC, to install the software on two machines? I work in PC environment on both computers

    I just got Adobe CC on my work computer. Previously, it was possible to install the Adobe C6 also on the PC at home on the same license? Is it also possible with Adobe CC, to install the software on two machines? I work in PC environment on both computers.

    You should check with the person who arranged the subscription to see what are the conditions for individual users.  Normally, an individual subscription license allows to have two machines with working facilities.  I don't know if the same applies to a subscription of volume / business.

  • Hard to get win install me in a virtual machine

    I need to have Win XP installed on a Win 7 laptop to run the company issued VPN software. The single XP disc I have is an upgraded version of the House, which isn't really a big deal.

    When initially, I installed VMWare Player this morning, I jumped my upgrade XP disc in (forgetting that it was an upgrade and not a complete OS) and the system has started the installation as usual, got the blue screen of Windows in my virtual machine installation, and installation took place right until the moment when she had to remind me that he was not a previous operating system installed, which pushed a 'Oh' of me , and a return to the House of my Win ME to full installation disc.

    When I try to install Me, the new virtual machine recognizes that there is me install the drive in my d: drive, but when he starts to put up the virtual machine, it does not autorun installation disc. A BACK screen opens, and I get messages saying: AMD Network Boot and trying to install from a MAC address of the client before you don't say 'no received startup file. Then I get a message saying "Exit Intel PXE ROM", followed of a message that says "Not found operating system".

    What I'm doing wrong here?

    The WinME installation disc was not bootable.  You should have a BACK bootable diskette that accompanies it.  Boot from the floppy (with support of the CD-ROM), run fdisk to partition the virtual hard disk, and then run Setup from the WinME CD.  If you do not have the boot BACK disk, you can find images of floppy disks BACK on the Internet.

    Otherwise, no not the upgrade CD allow you to burst in the WinME CD to check the upgrade eligibility, without installing WinME?

  • G3 book Z 17: Z book G3 default to install linux (Fedora or Ubuntu)

    I got a new Z book G3 which came with pre-installed Windows 10. It has two discs. The first

    a rotation 1 TB drive and the other is a 256 GB SSD. Nothing is on the SSD.

    I want to create a dual-boot machine with Fedora Core 24 as the other OS.

    I resized the Windows partition using disk management, and which seems to have been successful, because I can still start Windows 10.

    I tried to install 22 CF and various versions of CF 24, as well as Ubuntu 16.04 without success. I use CF iso DVD in a DVD USB drive as the installation media.

    The installation of live meda CF disk will well up to a point. The last line printed on the screen of the installer is always:

    [OK] Has started the user for UID 1000 Manager

    Then it hangs forever.

    There are hundreds of lines before this line, but I can't understand how to capture them. The lines just above the failure are:

    [OK] Created user slice slice of liveuser

    From the user for UID 1000 Manager

    [OK] Started user liveuser Session 1

    I've got Secure Boot disabled and Legacy Boot enabled in BIOS.

    I also tried the installation option low-resolution graphic "Troubleshooting" of the iso FC DVDs. even result.

    I checked that the integrity of the iso installation using SHA256SUM.

    I had similar problems (not identical) with Ubuntu.

    Can someone has suggestions for how I install linux on this book Z?

    Chad

    I now 16.04 Ubuntu and CentOS 7 installed next to Windows 10.

    For other linux users who want to install write on computers HP Z book G3, here's a recap of what I've done for activating facilities:

    1. Ubuntu LTS 16.04. Installed using iso DVD via DVD USB drive. To install, enter the BIOS (hit escape repeatedly just after switching on). Choose settings BIOS or similar, set install from file, then find the correct file for the USB key.

    Ubuntu installation screen is normal and informs you how to access the Setup command line. Do it and add "nomodeset" to the command line, near "ro" and "calm". Proceed with the installation. Once installed, you need to change the set grub to include 'nomodeset' as a standard kernel option. Edit /etc/grub.d/10_linux and add "nomodeset" just before "ro". There is probably a better way.

    2 centOS-7. I ended up creating a USB bootable using dd and a downloaded iso file. See

    https://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/InstallFromUSBkey. During installation, you must enter the BIOS as in (1) above. Once you start from the file, you will be presented with a mutilated wishes installation screen. You can always change the Setup command line by using 'e '. Add "nomodeset" as before, then press F10. Everything should be normal after that, you will see the graphical installation of CentOS screens. Unlike Ubuntu, once you have installed CentOS, you don't need to edit the grub implemented. I have no idea why. (I'm in over my head here).

    3. fedora Core 24. Without success to report, but now that I have Ubuntu and CentOS, alongside W10, I have need to pursue this further at the moment. I suspect the steps in (2) above, or the like, will work. You will need to "fly blind" when editing of the Setup command line and can be change grub after installation.

  • How to install VMware Tools in Ubuntu guest with no Internet connectivity?

    I need to install VMware Tools in a Guest Ubuntu (10.04) running in VMware Player.

    The machine on which it is running has no internet access; It is part of an isolated network.

    I know there are a LOT of instructions on how to do it, and it seems that they all begin with "mount your ISO file...". ' or "click"Install VMware Tools..."."

    Of course, I have not and cannot find a file ISO of VMware tools for Ubuntu.  I admit that I can be looked in the wrong place, but I watched several times and have spent many hours on it.   I tried Open VM Tools as well and followed the instructions included, but orders did not produce the responses described.

    When I click on "Install VMware Tools" the machine just made several attempts to connect to a server that will never happen.

    Although it does not prove that I know what I'm doing, I installed VMware Tools on several hosts of Windows XP.  For some reason, I was able to find many versions of VMware Tools for Windows ISO.  The installation worked everytime with very little hair loss.

    Thanks for any help on this eternal question.

    You will need to download the ISO images for the VMware Tools installation media at least once, on a computer with internet access.  Player menu--> File--> Preferences of the player.  Click on the button download now all components.  Once complete, there will be 6 ISO files in the folder of the player.  You can copy them to the same location on the PC that you are currently underway.  Then, you can follow the instructions to install VMware Tools in a Linux Guest, located in the help file.
