Receive a stop error message when you try to install Windows XP.

Ubuntu Linux operating system to Windows XP/7

Hi, I just got my laptop Dell Vostro 1440 Ubuntu Linux system (I think that its linux)

I hate it. and I want to install Windows XP.

I tried to boot from the CD to install Windows, but I get the blue screen after the initial load of the installation files... Before the first prompt for "."

I tried to use different versions of the OS on the different CD/DVD, still getting the BLUEs.

I tried the forums. and I got was I have to "delete the linux partitions", but I found no action straight forward to remove. (fdisk? WTF?)

Save me from this disaster or I'm leaving life

Windows does not recognize the Linux partitions. You need to remove these first before you install any version of Windows. To do this, use the tools of partition. For example, Acronis Disk Director (not free, but very goos and easy to use) or GParted (free, works very well but not quite as easy to use perhapse [but far from difficult])

http://www.Acronis.com/homecomputing/products/diskdirector/

http://gparted.sourceforge.NET/Download.php

You will need a way to download the disk image and burn it to DVD. - or - buy Acronis or similar from a local source.

After removing the existing scores today, you can boot from the Windows CD or DVD and install.

  • I receive the following stop error message when you try to install Windows XP: Stop: 0x0000007B

    I need help with this error code: Stop: 0x0000007B (0xF7C85524, 0xC0000034, 0x00000000, 0 x 000000000)

    I'm a noob Microsoft Answers. I have an old computer, I'm trying to reinstall Windows XP.  It's a Dell XPS Dimension 3 (3.40 gigahertz Intel Pentium 4, 1 G of RAM).  It does start normally or in Safe Mode.  I tried to use Fixmbr, Fixboot, Bootcfg/Rebuild, chkdsk/r, Memtest86, Killdisk.  I tried to install using another hard drive (which leads me to believe that it is perhaps a hardware problem).  He gave the same error code, I think, even if I didn't write it.  The only thing I found that I have not tried is "How do I recover from a corrupted registry that prevents Windows XP startup" because it is said that it will not work on OEM devices.  The error code is Stop: 0x0000007B (0xF7C85524, 0xC0000034, 0x00000000, 0 x 000000000).  I tried to install Ubuntu on two disks and they have installed and worked properly.  I don't know what else to try except hardware troubleshooting, although I'm not too good with hardware problems.  If you have any recommendations that could put closer me to a resolution I would be very happy!

    PS Windows XP actually ran on the second hard drive, I have tried (which is currently the drive in the machine at this time).  I installed it and it starts directly in Windows.  Yay!  I have restarted this configuration several times without any problems.  But I had a problem with the Microsoft Security Essentials update so I thought that a clean install would be better.  In hindsight, I wish I had tried harder to solve this problem, but I did not.  The first hard drive suffered a crash of Windows led me to be upgraded to a Windows 7 computer.  It was more than 1.5 years ago.  I just thought that the full back story might help.

    Hello

    I'm close to some (but my experience tells me very little is certain at 100%), which has a generic windows installation CD install without the need for the Setup F6 disk, as long as the BIOS is set to RAID Autodetect / ATA (or possibly 'mix'). AHCI is a more efficient disk access method but requires F6 floppy or "slipstreaming". If the CD is already slipstreamed for your PC, AHCI should work without F6. As you say your default BIOS to auto detect RAID/AHCI, I expect a CD specifically for your system to support it, while a generic CD would not.

    I doubt that they will provide F6 floppy but you never know. If you do not ask that you probably won't get.

  • Error message when you try to install Windows on OSX 10.10.5 10

    I have a Mid-2014 retina Macbook Pro and I am trying to use the Bootcamp Assistant to install Windows 10 on OS X 10.10.5 and Bootcamp version is 5.1.4. I can't upgrade to El Capitan from now due to work related software, long story!

    I took the steps so far:

    (1) reset the PRAM.

    (2) reset SMC.

    (3) ensure that only a single partition is present using disk utility.

    (4) check the permissions of the drive and repair at least twice.

    (5) check the disc.

    (6) use Bootcamp assistant create the Windows Installer by using 64-bit Windows 10 iso file downloaded from Ms. All boxes have been checked.

    (7) in a suitable place when Windows Setup asks me what partition choose, I select created Bootcamp partition and click on Format. Product key has been entered each time.

    (8) installation continues until the point where it says "Ending up", then a pop-up window comes up saying "Windows cannot update the configuration to start the computer, Setup cannot continue."

    (9) I click OK and the window behind what is said "installation has been cancelled, any changes made to your computer will not be saved."

    (10) the computer is stuck on this screen for awhile. When, finally, he tries to restart, I just get a white screen. and eventually everything goes off.

    (11) when I turn on again, if I hold down the Option, I can see the OS X partition, partition Windows, recovery disc, then Windows on my USB (in yellow) and the "EFI Boot' in yellow.

    (12) I tried to click on Boot EFI, and goes through the same installation process and gives me the same error.

    (13) I tried to click on the Windows USB button, it starts to install (with the normal resolution unlike every other time) and this time gives me the error message "Windows cannot be installed on partition disk 0" (View details) "when I click it, it says"Windows cannot be installed to this disk. The selected disk is the GPT partition style. »

    I'm pulling my hair out on this one (and I don't have much to lose) Please HELP!

    Your Mac of 2014 is able to support two different types of Windows, most modern BIOS or EFI old installation.

    The Windows icon on USB is the method inherited from the BIOS while the start EFI icon is the most recent and modern method. Each has its own requirements for partitioning.

    2014 BC on 5.1.4 Assistant should have three check boxes. The first two should be checked only once to build the installer, while the last one can be used as needed.

    1. use the last checkbox to delete the current partition of BC.

    2. use only a USB flash drive (USB2 is preferable), other USB devices or SD cards cause problems.

    3. run SMC/NVRAM reset external storage after everything is disconnected.

    4. the USB should be directly connected on the Mac. Do not use a USB hub.

    5. your ISO source must be an ISO only 64-bit and about 4 + GB. ISOs larger and mixed-mode are not valid for MCR, although they can run on an ordinary PC.

    6 re - run BCA and check the last box - only install or delete... and try again.

  • Error message when you try to install Windows Server 2008 64 bit

    Hello

    I have ESX 3.5 SP2 running on Dell 2950 2 x Quad-core servers and I wanted to watch Windows 2008 Server - 64 bit. When I tried to start the server after creating the new machine virtual and on installing the software on it, I received the message attached - how can I go about fixing/work around this?

    Thank you

    (A) make sure the BIOS of the ESX PHYSICAL host has VT extension enabled.  Power off the computer, then power it restore AFTER the change.

    (B) configure the VM for 64 bit instead of 32 bit.  change the settings for the virtual machine.

    Also have a related problem about MS Maliciouws software removal tool. For download, but read in the KB that: in XP, the vacuum cleaner will remove the malware, but doing so may trigger the File Protection Win with damages to my operating system.  the tool will attempt to repair the damage, but to rehabilitate prior to infection, that I need to insert the CD of Win. As my computer came with Windows preinstalled, I do not have a disk and will not take the risk of damage, that I can't fix. Do I not download or not... ? Another solution... ?  I also fear that this tool could settle into the routine Win Update and need guidance on the prevention of this facility, if possible, or what to do if it cannot be prevented.
