Reinstall XP from another XP disk on a system of E

Is it possible to reinstall XP using a disk of windows XP that came with the computer and if the computer is in system that came with windows xp pre-installed or do I need to get a cd from the manufacturer? I started with the CD and I'm about to delete the current partition which is used and that the disk install top.

I wonder if it's OK to do this because the computer came pre-installed with XP on it (this is an esystem).

I really cbf contacting the manufacturer, but I want to just make sure that any old disk Windows XP will install on it.

If you use a different disk/CD, you can have two problems:

(1) the OEM eMachines computer product key most likely will activate not or be accepted as a valid key.

(2) drivers eMachines will not be on the CD and Windows could not settle.

EMachines to call and see if you can get the replacement for media.

If eMachines does supply replacement medai then your only choice is to use the eMachines no Windows XP CD and try to perform the installation by using the product key that comes with the CD.

Also check the eMachine support website and download the XP drivers for your model and burn them on a CD.  After installation, use the driver CD to install all the drivers, starting with the card mother/chipset drivers and then all other other device drivers.

    You have the original CD of Windows XP comes with the computer. Also the original product key?

    Also the CD from your computer else you used to reinstall Windows XP is OEM or retail?

    Note: If you use the same product key that is already in use on your other computer most likely that is the reason why you have received advice. A product key can be used to enable only a single computer and not both.

  • When I reinstall windows from my dell disk, everything is great and there are no programs. Also, I can't connect to the Internet.

    Good so I bought a Dell Inspiron of the 620 years for the game and I had to reinstall Windows 7 on a drive I ordered from dell. So I reinstalled Windows 7 and now I have a lot of problems. So first of all it seems very strange, the taskbar is not transparent and all the buttons are very weird. Also, there are no programs in the start menu. Secondly, it is said there is no Internet connection available, but I plugged in everything. I can also connect to the Internet on other PCs as my laptop. Any help is necessary, because I really want to return to the game. :)

    Hello

    When you reinstall the operating system, you must obtain the latest drivers for Windows 7 Support of Dell.

    Go to this link for your model, and then select the operating system > and then select the correct chart, drivers etc. :

    http://www.Dell.com/support/drivers/us/en/19/product/Inspiron-620s

    For network adapter drivers, you can use the computer you are about to post here to go to the link above of Dell > download and save the software drivers for the office > transfer using a Flash drive and install it on the problem machine.

    Then use your game machine to get the rest.

    And here's how to reinstall using a disc from Dell:

  • Satellite A100-549: BSOD after I used the recovery from another PC

    Hello.

    Had a few probs with my laptop and decided to recover it using another pc recovery disc.
    I get the laptop is a Toshiba a100-549. Unfortunately for some reason I can't disks that were originally with her.

    The opertaing system is Windows xp. The disks I got with a Vista.
    It loads OK but goes to a blue screen after 30 seconds and restarts. Is there a reason for this and can I do.

    I think I may need to get your hands on a good drive and load it on again.
    Someone at - it copies of drives for this laptop and able to send me their. I'll gladly pay for them...

    Colin

    Hello

    Don t user recovery drive to another PC, because it won't work.
    You can use a clean Windows OS disk or the Toshiba recovery disc.

    Why? Because the recovery disk contains an image. The image is a package containing a Windows OS, drivers and other software.
    If you want to use the recovery from another PC disk then all the drivers, tools and software distributed for this PC will be loaded on your Toshiba laptop.
    This can cause the BSOD!

    So if you n t have the Toshiba recovery disc then you should use MS Windows CD!
    Toshiba drivers can be downloaded from the Toshiba page!

  • where can I get a winows vista home basic startup disk? And can I use a back up from another pc which is vista Home premium?

    be necessary to restart the laptop with Vista Home Basic, but do not have a backup, can make a backup of my desktop vista Home premium if it will work?

    Hello

    You cannot use a backup from a Home Premium computer to reinstall Vista Basic on another computer.

    There are several methods to reinstall Vista.

    There is no Windows Vista downloads available from Microsoft.

    You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

    They should do this for a small fee.

    To reinstall Vista using their recovery disk/s, you start from the 1st recovery disk they provide and follow the manufacturer's instructions to reinstall:

    You need to change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order:

    How to change the Boot order in BIOS:

    http://pcsupport.about.com/od/fixtheproblem/SS/bootorderchange.htm

    "How to replace Microsoft software or hardware, order service packs and replace product manuals.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/326246

    And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery Partition on the hard drive to reinstall Vista on how you purchased your computer.

    The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)

    Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.

    Ask them to the proper key sequence.

    And if you do not score a manufacturer of recovery on your hard drive, you should be able to make your own recovery from her disks to reinstall the operating system.

    Go to programs > name of the manufacturer of your computer > then their system or recovery tools software topics for them, depending on how it is formulated.

    If you can't find any reference to it, contact the manufacturer for advice on how to make these recovery disks.

    Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

    If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

    You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

    Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

    And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

    Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

    "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

    http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html

    And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.

    And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.

  • I want to move a program from one hard disk to another is possible?

    I want to move a program from one hard disk to another is possible? I have the original disc to the software, but it is damaged. The hard disk that contains the program barely works, so I need to transfer all the programs and data to another drive. I used the transfer Assistant, but that will not transfer this program?

    Unless you make an exact copy of the installation CD, I'm not sure there is much else you can do.

    You can always try using a cloth and wipe the disc from the Center outward. That might do the trick. Or you can use a program like IMGBurn and create a new CD and hope for the best. Other than that, I'm ideas.

You will need to request that the manufacturer how to do as each computer manufacturer has their own way of making records of this partition recovery.

    I want to uninstall my old CS5 Design Premium from my computer to reinstall it on another computer. What are the steps? Is there something special with the activation codes, etc.?

    You are allowed to have two facilities enabled, so if you prefer you can keep ut on the current computer and just install it on the new as you did initially.  If you want to remove on the other machine, the first thing to do is to disable it by opening a program in the suite and by selecting help-> turn off in the top toolbar.  That's all you need to do to disable the software.  At this point if you prefer you can uninstall it if you want.

    As much as on the new nmachine, as I indicated just, just install it like you did the first time.

    Hello

    Hmm, looks like the laptop cannot restore the operating system from the recovery image
    To be honest I'm not very well why this error pops up but eventually it s m related to the new HARD drive installation.

    Perhaps, you can format the HARD drive again using a clean Microsoft Windows CD (Win XP, etc.).
    Boot from the CD of Win and format the HARD drive.
    Then go to the recovery disk, boot from the recovery disc and try reinstalling the operating system
