Need old version of XP
I have an IBM RS80 and receive an error message: Windows\system32\config\system, insert the original disc. The version of the program is Windows XP pro 1-2 cpu. I got this computer for more than 15 years and won't do any update I'll lose some precious software and data and use it for some specialized tasks. I just need to have the original version of XP to fix this a point. Can someone guide me to this problem if all goes well solveable.
For this error, I would like to start here:
The question was preceded by a loss of power, aborted reboot or abnormal termination? (This includes the plug pulling, buttons power and removing the battery).
These can cause corruption in the file system that must be fixed before you do anything else.
If none of these events occurred (or even if they have not taken place), you must verify the integrity of your file system before anything else (especially "try" things).
There is zero logic to begin to try to begin to try to modify or copy files to a hard drive that has a corrupted file system, so this must first be fixed using the XP chkdsk program and run chkdsk on your hard drives may solve your problem completely.
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 don't forget (no support for XP not necessary).
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:
xp_rec_con. ISO
Download the ISO from here:
http://www.mediafire.com/?ueyyzfymmig
Use a new CD and this simple and free program to burn your ISO file and create your bootable CD:
When you install ImgBurn, DO NOT install the Ask toolbar.
Here are some instructions for ImgBurn:

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:
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.

I liked the old version of iTunes that allowed me to delete songs from my camera if I needed to make room for other things. Does anyone know why it was changed?
You have to ask Apple why the design has changed. You should still be able to delete songs by changing your selection of synchronization and synchronize.

Hi, Niki:
Nothing is never easy, is everything!
Unfortunately, I do not know what that all means is.
I was hoping it would work only.
When you look at the list of the supported PC version is supposed to work with, I thought it would be too much work for your model. Although it does not list the series g6 or g7, supported, he shows much older models supported by this software.

Need me and how to uninstall the old version of the JDK 7.0
Hi, all I have installed the two JDK 1.7 update 21 (1.7.0.210) and 51 (1.7.0.510), and so I wonder what I need to uninstall the old version of JDK 1.7 update 21, as they both appear in the list of "programs and features" in Windows. Secondly, I tried Java Uninstall Tool, it does state that "there is no old versions of Java on your computer. So I'm wondering can I just use "programs and features" it manually uninstall any version of Java, if I need to.
see you soon

As I have also implemented "JAVA_HOME" to "jdk1.7.0_21" when I tried to install Android Developer Kit, so I need update "JAVA_HOME" accordingly? The Setup was difficult, and I don't know if it's this set up "JAVA_HOME" step makes installing ADT work.
If the instructions for installation of this product requires setting a JAVA_HOME variable then Yes, otherwise no.
Try is certainly a good teacher, but I prefer to read documentation first tent to make it less educated.

Since Acrobat Reader downloaded DC I can't sign my PDF documents. It does not give me the option more and yes I am connected. On the old version, I got no problem with clicking on "signature" and draw the area where I needed my signature, put the password and "POOF" my signature would be there. With this new version, it won't do that or give me the option. The online help is useless. I need to explain to me how connect you as I used too?
I assumed that you had a digital signature created in your player application of old and whenever you use to fill out a pdf with a signature field signed you it. But in order to draw and then sign you must use Acrobat Pro DC no DC drive.
Thank you

Do I need to uninstall the old version 5.7
After installing version 6 do I need to uninstall the old version 5.7. After installation, I imported the photos of a job and realized that they had imported 5.7 installation.
Hi Pete,.
Lightroom 5 & 6/CC times are individual applications and can be installed at the same time, unless you don't need them.
So, in short, the answer is Yes, you can uninstall the old version where you don't need.
See you soon!
