I need the Cd of origin provided with my computer replaced. I can't use the one supplied with the computer. He was scratched and corrupted. System Restore will not work and the recovery is messed up also. Thank you, that's you can help me.

Hello:

It is highly unlikely that HP will have more of the recovery disc for the models with XP, but you can call and ask.

If HP has more of them, you can order a set of this provider on the link below.

They normally old XP Recovery discs available.

You will need to know the full of your PC model number.

  • Children of fact windows xp home edition come with a program that you can make a birthday invitation

    New user of windows xp and the need for children, birthday invitations party. Is there a program that comes with windows xp or if not it would be a good to download?

    Windows XP is an "operating system" - the program who is in charge of your computer.  There are a few basic applications built in such as WordPad and Paint, but you'd better find a site online to make invitation cards.

    However, if you purchased your computer with Windows XP preinstalled, there is the possibility that the computer manufacturer added additional software that might be of use... but we do not know what is on your computer not identified.

  • Preparation of an installation of Windows XP Home edition CD with a MINIMUM required drivers for A200-1AX

    Greetings,

    I am trying to install Windows XP Home edition on my old days by Satellite A200-1AX. Today, I tried to boot from the CD of Windows XP Home edition or after the copy of the system files, the laptop produces the error that Setup did not find any hard disk during the Installation of Windows XP. I looked on the internet and found the following page:

    http://www.howtogeek.com/HOWTO/Windows/resolving-Setup-did-not-find-any-hard-disk-drives-during-Windows-XP-installation/

    Explains how to resolve this problem. So I try to make my own installation CD of Windows XP Home edition with the necessary drivers. My first question is: what are the minimum required drivers to ensure a smooth installation process until I get the XP running? It is not necessary to install the drivers for all the A200-1AX since the first installation of XP, I can always go back and install those remaining of the XP; but I don't want the installation process interrupted due to a missing driver where I have to repeat the process of manufacturing more install of WXP CD custom. The list of drivers and devices provided by Toshiba is too long to write on a single installation with XP CD.

    My second question is: there is an update of the bios/firmware required in accordance with the instruction list. Is it necessary BEFORE or AFTER the installation of Windows XP Home edition?

    If I decide to go back to VISTA using the recovery CD, I must restore the bios/firmware?

    Thanks in advance for your answer.

    Best regards, Ashraf.

    > My first question is: what are the minimum required drivers to ensure a smooth installation process until I get the XP running

    You will need to include only the Intel Matrix Storage Manger for the XP CD again. Without this iMSM XP will not see the HARD drive
    This driver is important. Other drivers can be installed after the installation of XP!

    > My second question is: there is an update of the bios/firmware required in accordance with the instruction list. Is it necessary BEFORE or AFTER the installation of Windows XP Home edition?

    There are 2 versions of BIOS; One for Vista and one for XP. Generally, the update of the BIOS must be made before the instillation of OS but you can also try to do after installing XP. In both cases, the update of the BIOS would be possible.

    > If I decide to go back to VISTA using the recovery CD, I must restore the bios/firmware?
    Generally, Yes! Without the good BIOS features like the FN buttons could not work properly!

  • Windows XP Home edition has crashed - how to return WXP and use with the product key?

    Hello. I bought an Equium L20 last year and after 1 year my windows crashed due to a virus. I want to know how to get a real windows xp OS because the product under my laptop key is always saved for me and is a legitimate product but I can't get windows because it was obviously preinstalled and no CD was given to me with the package.

    How can I get back Windows to use with my product key on my WIN sticker below my laptop.

    Hello

    First of all, it is very strange that recovery CD is not delivered with your laptop. It's hard to believe, but anything is possible. As you know after buying a new product, it is very important to check all orders sent with it and if something is missing, you must call the local as soon as possible and not to wait a year.

    Sorry but this key code belongs to original recovery image and you can't use it with every installation of Windows XP Home edition CD. In your case, there are two options:
    -You can buy the CD of facilities Microsoft original WXP (with the key correctly code) or
    -Contact the partner of service allowed in your country and order the new CD from recovery for your laptop model.

    All that s!

    Bye and good luck!

  • is windows xp home edition compatible with gateway mseries laptop?

    I want to convert my computer laptop gateway mseries from windows vista to windows xp home edition.  the specs for the laptop are the following: manufacturer: gateway, model: m7315u processor: intel dual core 2 GHz ram p.: 1.5 GB I have windows xp home edition activation code, but he lost the installation cd and I'm tired of every time that I try to do something that requires administrative permission (which my user account has) the computer crashes.  I know that windows xp home edition is being abandoned, but she always work better for me than windows vista (in my opinion)

    Hi Xircal,

    The computer manufacturer often have the same drivers for a series model they release

    But the OP would be wasting their time on installing XP, so bridge never provided XP drivers for this particular model. This is one of the reasons why I suggested that the OP contact Gateqway Support.

    The point of the OP's question is that they want to replace Vista by XP

    @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

    Here's the line of the OP: "I want to convert my computer laptop gateway mseries from windows vista to windows xp home edition.

    In the link you give, it shows being available for model 7300 XP drivers.

    : http://support.gateway.com/us/en/product/default.aspx?tab=1&modelId=3014

    As the OP says that Vista is installed, why this model 7300 only Vista drivers available for it by default, if it is the same material as the M-7315u?

    See you soon.

  • Windows XP Home edition does not charge up - screen Toshiba and then nothing

    I opened my computer to stand by earlier. And received an error message such as:

    WINDOWS CANNOT CONTINUE RUNNING BECAUSE THE FILE IS DAMAGED AND UNREADABLE...
    Then he had a countdown until it restarted. After the computer restarted (loads of screen toshiba upwards) then nothing happends. I managed to get into the safe mode start page, but when I select start in safe mode, it does nothing, actually freezes. Seems that the problem is with XP.

    I also tried to "last good configuration" but who also refuses to load.
    I can, however, in the BIOS.

    The black and white background writes startup screen that flashes briefly upward when after that the toshiba screen doesn't even come to the top.

    I have a P100-429 Satilite using XP SP2 (or 3) does not remember.

    Is this a hardware problem? I lose data?

    I am aware that my system was clean and I was using a good anti-virus.

    Please please let me know if you have any suggestions or comments.

    Thanks in advance, Max...

    Hi RisSsky,

    you are in a deep deep sh... t... No. not really...
    Looks like the filestructure hard disk is damaged.
    the hard drive is recognized by the bios? means, it is listed as a device?
    There is a sound of the hard drive? scratch or buzzing or ticking?

    CHKDSK may help, but I would 'safe mode' where you want not to lose data on disk.

    don't panik, we will do things.

    2 options to solve this problem:
    the first and save:
    -Remove the old hdd (you need later)
    -get a new hard drive and make a recovery/installation on the new drive.
    -also get a usb - hdd connector to access old data hdd and copy on the new disk.
    or the 2nd:
    -run chkdsk on your hard drive, maybe you need to do this with a "live-system-on-cd.
    Be aware that if there is a problem it will get worse...
    -start in safe mode

    If you're lucky, the 2nd option will do.
    as said before I'd do it "the safe way.

    HP mini 110-1129nr with windows xp home edition, on said boot computer could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt \windows\system32\config\system computer has no cd/dvd drive. Computer does not load in safe mode, I ran disk hard main test self test it says completion test: failure, check the status: 7 (filled with the read element of the test failed). Help.

    You need an external DVD drive to get the repair will.

    Also the device you own does not seem to have built in the recovery partition. I'm not sure about later versions of this machine, however, it is best to check with HP.

    The problem is that there is a corruption of the registry on your OS or the system could not find where the registry files are due to system files or boot corrupted file.

    A repair can be made with an external DVD, the worst case, is that if the repair doesn't work you reinstall Windows.

  • Bootsect.dat file is corrupt, NTLDR is missing/compressed on x 86 pc with Windows XP Home Edition Sp3 and Ie8

    I have a x 86 pc with Windows XP Home Edition SP3 and IE8.

    While preparing for a possible update for Win 7, I thought repartioning and "multiboot" my HARD drive.

    I tried to get WinXP operating as best I can.  I was also check out how to use the Windows Recovery Console to reinstall WinXP and transfer files to a clean reinstall.

    Found while searching "All boot paths" to Start\Run\msconfig\BOOT. INI that one boot path has been highlighted with errors indicating that "file is corrupt because playing a disc error has occurred" and that NTLDR is missing or corrupt.  In fact, it is blurred.  It points to "Recovery Console Microsoft Windows/cmdcon.  I've not used the Recovery Console, ever.

    I have a desktop Gateway 5310 S (detail) and no original XP disc, apparently.

    I have, but never used, a 4ea. set of recovery CD as of 12/05/05 I need to have created after purchase.

    I also had many, odd, problems that come and go, including worth displaying various websites, Yahoo Home Pages and E-mail that keep switch to compatibility mode or outright deletion.  The video and audio on Hulu and video-on-demand online services are always out of sync.  I have problems with editing posts on sites like this even if I can edit my profile fine pages.

    This particular set of problems started recently and very suddenly, from one day to the other.  It was after he worked actually pretty good for a change.

    I don't know how long the boot.ini file has been damaged, I actually discovered by chance.

    I can also not to reinstall some programs such as Family Tree Maker 2005 and 2008, when it was suggested to me by ancestry.com to uninstall/reinstall.

    I have the latest Java and Adobe Flash Player.  I've defragged and disc verified my discs.

    I used CCleaner to delete temp and unwanted files per day.  I ran Hitman Pro, MBAM, MBAR, MSE and SAS several times without detected virus or malware.

    And, as I mentioned above, I have problems with the editor of this site, right now.  Sometimes it just freezes and I have to leave to clear.  Other times it's duplicating entire sentences.  He also flip/flip flops between a Publisher full page and, as now, a half page window of the editor on the half left of the page.

    Suggestions from what people you can come would be greatly appreciated.  This gets really annoying.

    Thank you

    When you check the paths in the boot.ini file, and the recovery console is installed, you will always get an error message indicating that the startup path is not valid.

    If the recovery console is actually corrupted just to uninstall, you can reinstall or burn a cd with the recovery console.

    go here for instructions on deleting the recovery console.

    Here's how to make a bootable xp recovery console cd

    Courtesy of JoseIbarra

    You need start by booting in XP using a CD Recovery Console, you can do (no XP media required) and run a chkdsk with error correction command enough times until it is clean and if it does not, you can create a new boot.ini file (this is usually one of two things).

    Here's how:

    Use the XP Recovery Console to check the file system on your HARD drive and fix the problems and then try to start your system - this may be all you need to do.  Or, you are welcome to just start trying things that might work.

    Boot into the Recovery Console Windows using an XP bootable installation CD.

    If you have no XP bootable media (or aren't sure you have) create a bootable XP Recovery CD of Console and do not forget what you have (no XP media required).

    This is not the same as recovery disks that might have come with the acquisition of the system store.

    You can make a bootable Recovery Console CD by downloading an ISO file and burn it to a CD.

    The ISO bootable image file you need to download is called:

    RC. ISO

    Download the ISO from here:

    http://www.thecomputerparamedic.com/?p=8    (courtesy of Daavee)

    Use a new CD and this simple and free program to burn your ISO file and create your bootable CD:

    http://www.ImgBurn.com/

    When you install ImgBurn, DO NOT install the Ask toolbar.

    Here are some instructions for ImgBurn:

    http://Forum.ImgBurn.com/index.php?showtopic=61

    It would be a good idea to test your bootable CD on a computer running.

    You may need to adjust the computer BIOS settings to use the CD-ROM drive as the first device to boot instead of the hard drive.  These adjustments are made before Windows tries to load.  If you miss it, you will need to restart the system again.

    When you start on the CD, follow the instructions:

    Press any key to boot from CD...

    Installing Windows... going to pronounce.

    Press 'R' to enter the Recovery Console.

    Select the installation that you want to access (usually 1: C:\WINDOWS)

    You may be asked to enter the password (usually empty).

    You should be in the folder C:\WINDOWS.  It's the same as the

    C:\Windows folder that you see in Solution Explorer.

    The Recovery Console allows base as file commands: copy, rename, replace, delete, chkdsk, fixboot, fixmbr, cd, etc.

    For a list of the commands in the Recovery Console, type help at the prompt of commands or read on here XP Recovery Console:

    http://www.Microsoft.com/resources/documentation/Windows/XP/all/proddocs/en-us/recovery_console_cmds.mspx?mfr=true

    A good idea before you start things must first verify the integrity of your file system by using the chkdsk command.

    In the command prompt window, run the chkdsk command on the drive where Windows is installed to try to fix any problems on the afflicted player.

    Running chkdsk is fine, even if he finds no problem.  It won't hurt anything to run it.

    Assuming your boot drive is C, run the following command:

    CHKDSK C: /r

    Let chkdsk finish to correct the problems, he could find.

    It may take a long time for chkdsk complete or they seem to be "stuck".  Be patient. If the HARD drive led blinks always, chkdsk is something.  Keep an eye on the amount of the percentage to be sure that it is still making progress.  It may even seem to go back sometime.

    You must run chkdsk/r again until it finds no error to correct.

    Remove the CD, and then type "exit" to exit the RC and restart the computer.

    You have not to set the BIOS to boot the disk HARD since the CD won't be.

    ===============

    as for the other problems:

    did you use Registry cleaners?

    These can damage your system

    You seem to be free of infection, it would seem that a part of your process cleaning has removed a necessary file.

    ===============

    Checkdisk with parameter/r should be run. and run it again until there is no error.
