No, you can install a new copy of Windows XP Professional on the system. If the key is not displayed as authentic, you can try to activate the phone activation key. Click on the link below.

Error loading \3\DLBUtime.dll
I have a Dell computer that came with Windows XP Home edition. When I start my computer the monitoring of ERROR appears: RUNDLL error loading specified not found \3\DLBUtime.dll module
I just click 'ok' and he goes, but, as for what it stop popping up everytime I start my computer.
Can someone help me with this?
Aprilm,
You are LuLu5119, who posted a question last August?
If this isn't the case, you should have started your own thread. If so (and even if not), you should have responded to questions about Dell printers.
Assuming that you complain of a "Error loading \3\DLBUtime.dll" message that appears when you start your computer, you should know that the DLBUtime.dll file probably has something to do with the software from Dell which has been partially deleted, but could also be indicative of malware as well as partially withdrawn.
In both cases, the best way for start you to prevent the message at windows is to download Autoruns http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902.aspx
Install the Autoruns and let it complete the scan of your computer. Then click on the "Connection" tab and uncheck the following entry:
Look for an entry that has 'DLBUCATS' in the first column. If you do not see that, look for "rundll32 \3\dlbutime.dll" in the last column ("path of the Image).
Uncheck that entry, close Autoruns and restart your computer. You should get is no longer the message.
If for any reason, you find later that you need dlbutime.dll running, run Autoruns and check the box. If you decide that you need never again, run Autoruns, right-click on the entry and select Delete.
As General precautionary measure, in case your entry dlbutime.dll was related to malicious software, rather than the Dell printing software, download the following free scanners:
MalwareBytes Anti-Malware: http://malwarebytes.org/
SUPERAntiSpyware Portable: http://superantispyware.com/portablescanner.htmlFor MalwareBytes Anti-Malware, download, install, update and run.
For Portable SAS, follow the instructions on the Web page (note that the instructions assume that you use a different computer to download; if you're not, just make a note of the name of the file). -
Computer will not use the drive when you restart.
I have a Pavilion dv 9000 and had problems more and more lately (win explorer fails, application launcher fail, blue screens, crashes etc.).
I decided to use the recovery disk that was created at first boot. According to all the manuals that I found (on - and offline), it is just to put the recovery disk in the DVD-ROM and restart.
The problem is that nothing happens. The computer does not use the disk when it reboots.
Anyone experienced the same problem with the recovery disk?
I'm not having any other problems with the ROM, works perfektly once Windows is running.
Thank you
You may need to change the BIOS to do first the CD drive in the boot sequence to boot from the CD. To do this, hold the screen that tells you the key F to push to enter the menu start or start of installation. Push it quickly. Make the changes, save your work and exit. Put the CD in the drive and reboot. When you are prompted, press any key to boot from the CD.
I hope this helps.
Good luck!
