my daughter received a comp. from a friend that the hard disk has been deleted how to get windows xp back on it

I downloaded windows xp from mirowsoft up to 6 discs of A which I just it ready for the cd of window xp I don't have.

Hi cjoyner66,

Thanks for posting. I'm confused on 6 discs A you're talking about. Windows XP can not hold on 6 floppy disks if that's what you are referring. If the hard disk has been deleted, you will need to use your Windows XP disk and reinstall Windows using this disk and the key associated with this record. If you don't have XP media, you must contact the OEM of your computer or buy an extra copy of the XP.

I hope this helps!

  • Is it possible to recreate a link to or to access data from the Delta after the original disk has been changed?

    I did something very stupid, but didn't know what I was doing until it was done. Now I need help.

    I had a server doesn't go down (Windows 2008), no backups. He had two logical drives on two separate VMDK. I decided to mount the drive on a new server and move all data from the old disk (VMDK) to the new computer virtual server. Once done, I realized that the data that I had moved across was 6 months old. Further investigation, I found a car delta for this drive. I reassembled the old VMDK on the old server and carried out a repair. This brought to the top of the old server, but I had moved all the data on the data disk to the new server and so the data on the drive of delta were more visible. My question of course, is "How can I get the data on the disc of delta, which is actually 6 months worth. Does anyone have a miracle solution?

    Hello

    There is no download available on the Net and your hard drive as failed now, you are unable to make the recovery of the disks.

    And you cannot use from recovery disks of a different brand or model (laptop) to reinstall Vista on your Tower / Desktop

    Contact HP and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

  • Creating a DVD from HP restore Partition of hard disk

    OK, let's go.  We have three computers in this House.   One is an HP 2004 775th with XP that was suggested be sent to pasture.   I agree to this.  My other computer is a HP Pavilion p6750f with Win 7 Home 2011.  Large computer and has no problem.  I want to keep this PC by business unit and buy a refurbished on ebay as a HP Compaq 8000 with Win 7 Pro 64 bit.  This should be Uncategorized at 10 for Microsoft Windows gives the OK.

    The majority of these 8000 HP on ebay have the disk hard 'original' wiped and reinstalled with new Windows 7 Pro 64-bit software.   Some say that the hard drive has the "restore disk partition hard rule."

    Now the big question.   With original Windows 7 Pro 64-bit clean wiped from the HD and a new install of Win. 7, I'll be able to make a DVD-restore/recovery Partition on the hard drive?

    That question seems to be is "I'll be able to make my own recovery DVDs?"  As shown in This DOCUMENT?  The answer is probably not.  Unless the previous owner includes the recovery of the purchase value.  These units are most likely end the lease to a company, which means that they are erased clean from any software that may have been installed.  The inclusion of an operating system is to facilitate the resale.

  • Activation problem with hard disk containing Vista deleted from a computer dead and installed in a work computer.

    Problem: HP laptop with Vista installed suffers an untimely death. The installed hard drive with Vista is still OK. Hard disk has been removed from the HP laptop and then installed in an old Dell laptop. Windows Vista is complaining that Vista is not valid and must be activated. I get the activation from valid product key and the activation utility responds with an error 0xC004E003 code and will not activate. Microsoft does not support chat or e-mail for Vista and I can not even a phone number to talk to a human being. I think I should be able to remove Vista from a computer and run it on another without Microsoft having a problem with it. What should I do for this? Any help will be appreciated. Thank you.

    Property to true. An OEM Vista license does "die with the computer. Conditions of licence for the version of Windows 8 have changed compared to the terms for the most comparable Windows 7 or Vista or XP. In my opinion, the terms are now even more restrictive, more or less.

    Good luck exploring alternatives to the BONE. Some Linux distributions are well worth a visit. Ubuntu, Suse and Mint are quite simple to install on a wide range of material. I'm not familiar with the Apple/Mac or Android offers, but many speak well of them.

  • Remove stranded files from the hard disk to the VM package

    I have a virtual merger machine that is now 96 GB in size (database development) and it contains several virtual hard drives.  Now, I have cleared one of the drives on and outsourced (he placed on an external Firewire based drive).  Removing the abandoned drive does not reduce the size of the virtual machine.  Research in the VM package, I see that the hard disk file (vmdk) is always inside the package and using 54 GB.

    The question is so I can delete these files from the VM package or it will damage the VM?  I tried to make a backup of the VM, but right at the end that it maintains the production of an error so I would like to know if anyone has experience with this before making the jump.

    Removing a virtual drive simply deletes the references, it does not delete the virtual disk. If you do not have a snapshot (for example), it is safe to delete. Make sure get you the right one, well - I recommend you all first move somewhere else and then try to start the virtual machine. If it is used at the moment (but maybe not if it is only used by a snapshot), merge will complain.

  • Satellite A200 - 1 M 5: sounds from the HARD disk that is not regular

    Dear,

    I bought a new Satellite A200 - 1 M 5 1 week there are, but I have noticed a noise coming from your hard drive that is not regular, whenever the drive is currently in use, there is a noise from him. It's weird, I had Satellite phones precedents and never faced that.
    is this normal in this series of satellites? or damage my hard drive? Although it works very well so far.

    If anyone has an idea about this, please let me know it.

    Appreciate it.

    > Whenever the drive is currently in use, there is a noise from him. It's weird
    Who is normal behavior that the HARD drive makes sounds while working.
    On some disks, the sound is louder and some drives are quieter.

    My laptop comes with a 100 GB HARD drive and I noticed that this HARD drive work harder than the previous 40 GB HARD disk.

    I don t think that there might be a problem with your HARD drive. It of new.
    So, in my opinion you should t be worried.

    and if the HARD drive is going to die your warranty covers the replacement ;)
