Your choice of course, but which is almost always a very bad way of
solve problems. What problems are you having?

I bought the desktop on 2004 computer and when I insert the disc indicates that the disk of Windows XP is SP1 and I need the windows XP SP3, there is something I can do to reinstall the windows xp with SP1 software? Thank you *.

You're hurting. You can not install Windows from Windows.
You must boot from the Windows CD to do so. And to boot from the
CD, the CD must be first in the boot order. If it is not first of all, you
have to go into the BIOS Setup program to change.

When you start from the CD, simply follow the guests for a cleaning
installation. The new facility will begin formatting the
drive and it does not look or how carefully SP version you have
installed.

And note that reinstalling Windows itself will result in loss of
everything on the disk, so make sure you you have a backup on external
media of all the data you need. Your programs should all be
reinstalled from their original media.

    Hello, as I said in my title, I reformatted my IDE HDD and reinstalled Windows XP Pro SP3, and before that it loads, s it just shows a BSOD screen without me being able to read. Anyone know the problem?

    Microsoft? Why always SP3 Gets the problem? -__-

    Boot into the Recovery Console Windows using an XP bootable installation CD.

    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.

  • You need to reinstall Windows XP. Do I need the CD of the motherboard?

    Hello

    someone gave me a computer with some virus on it. I want to wipe the hard drive and install xp. Here's the question-have I need motherboard cd (which I don't have) for installation? or can I just put the xp cd in and then finished?

    the mb cd would not have the bios or other important things on that I might need?

    any info will help you.

    Thank you... pat

    (it is a different computer from my other post).

    You can install XP from installing XP, but you need to maybe go online with another computer and download the network drivers (put it on a USB key) and install those first. From there, you can do just that with the new PC. You can visit the Web site of the manufacturers of drivers for everything.

    Most, if not all, stuff on the CD are available online. It's just get online which can be the first hurdle.
  • Reinstalling Windows without installation disks

    Let me clarify some things that I think are made:

    Laptop = ideapad z575 which is a windows 7 64 bit computer.

    Windows wouldn't boot because it has an error since avg and update wondows - avg seem to be ashamed that their driver is the last show at startup but remove avg then showed another driver and it all points to a depth of problem.
    In short, I feel that a reinstallation is the best way forward.

    I saved my data sisters so happy to do a quick format and reinstall of windows 7 - have the serial number sticker, but no disk I do not think that it shipped in all.

    I didn't modify all partitions, but using a utility disk in the back that I was able to access it via the standard boot drive I can put another active partition... now to return back I had to create a bootable utility that I made from USB, it also allows me to inspect the readers through a windows interface.

    So I am here and able to do a lot in the back through my USB. I saw and was able to run a recovery program that is located on one of the partitions. But he told me that something was friends with readers and I think it's because of my defining a different partition as the only active.

    What is the next best step for me it feels exaggerated do not use partition lenovo gave to reinstall windows, hoping I wouldn't need browse and find/download all the drivers, etc... and not to mention updates of bios etc...

    I can say that I have the following discs and back access and access through GUI.

    When I say access via the GUI I found that I was able to do this system revoery options screen when he says click to search the drivers an interface will appear and where I can the eyebrows of all partitions and USB - which was pretty cool. The button says "Load Drivers" and from there, I can choose the partition and try and run one touch back.

    When he first boot from USB it looks like as it is by default and selects a Boot called drive (X and the default folder is the Windows/System32 folder.)

    Here are the disks or partitions I can see and explore

    Lenovo (C 27.5 Free GB GB 28.9 contains just request files and drivers.)

    Local disk (E it looks like there's a Windows installation on it that I can see my sistsers files in the my documents (I got these by using XCOPY to get the complete recursive directory and do be careful if you use just "copy" as it will ignore folders and files inside!)) For me, it's the normal bootable disc and one that is broken.
    349 GB free of 421 GB so this seems to confirm that it is the main trunk and use the partition.

    Local disk (D only 166 199MB MB no said no files and folders at least since the GUI - perhaps back can show me something...)

    Start (X 29.1 MB of free space of 31.5 MB I don't think it's my USB (NOT confirmed) the last modified date is 2009! he seems to have a windows installation - is possible to reinstall from that?) I tried to click on a setup.exe found here but it does not work via the GUI as it comes to find specific drivers is not not a general file Explorer.

    I have 2 drives USB also visible to help me. I got the above files to another on the ERD. And the 3rd is the CD. If these are known as CDROM (F, Reapir disk (G: I did that) and 32 GB Flash (H)

    Maybe I need to burn an iso install wondows in the latter. Who can be a last resort.

    What is perhaps a few right steps to take right now. I think I should be able to change my active partition and get a contact working again by reversing what I was doing back disk partition - don't remember the name... a few trial and error required.

    But I hope that with this info I can get my sisters laptop that works again. I think also that if I took it to a local shop they will simply be to format and reinstall windows 7 and drivers do not care to take the time to maybe get to a situation of factory. It is because the baisc economy. I don't want to go that route because I know I can do what I want to just make the best way.

    Knew nothing about this function - will keep in mind for the next window of time slows down or does not start - throw his toys out of the pram etc... suffering from windows computer slow? You are not alone

    In any case, I think I've sorted it. Hope that C is not too fragmented because I chose to not be complicated with a format and keep the original scores. In this way its just easier.

    Wifi that I had remembered to disable in the BIOS.

  • How to find product key Windows XP home sp3

    I just reinstalled Windows XP home sp3, and I forgot the product key. Where can I find it? I have 30 days to activate it.

    Too late.

    The product key is on the packaging (box or envelope) that contains your Windows XP Home CD.

    If you have lost the package, then before you reinstalled you might have found the key to the registry using one of the available tools (e.g., http://www.magicaljellybean.com/keyfinder/).  Now that you have reinstalled, however, that the key is missing.

  • Windows 7 SP1 w/IE 11 freezes, slow performance with switching webpages, downloads, games run very slowly and when to play simple games (for example, CandyCrush Saga) it ignores the graphics and music.

    I have an older Toshiba Satellite laptop I found that, after buying new laptops, I return to my only older because of its speed of travel from site to site, download and never had any problems with games.  I was running Windows 7 Home Edition, IE 9.

    About a year ago, I decided to upgrade my Windows 7 Home Edition to Windows 7 Professional and updated my browser IE 11.  Laptop still has a large.

    Then about 6 months ago I started to receive messages when you enter a Web site that I need to install Flash Player to view the page.  I checked my modules and Shockwave or Flash Player have been activated and would download it again to display the Web site (which I had already visited several times without any problems).  This has happened on several different sites.  Then I started to receive messages that I needed to upgrade my IE8 browser to a newer version.  I checked HELP to make sure that I still installed IE11 and I did it, I started getting these messages more often then I went to the aid of Microsoft Office on what to do if your Web pages telling you to upgrade.  Basically, IE11 is reset or uninstall IE11.  Reset is not good so I tried the method of reinstallment.  I uninstalled IE11, went to the download page for Microsoft IE11 and proceeds to download IE11.

    I saw a message that I couldn't download IE11 because I need to Windows 7 SP1 or later or Windows server 2008.  Then, I went to Microsoft requirements for the installation of Service Pack 1 for Windows 7 and follow-up procedures one (i.e., uninstall Adobe Acrobet, disabling Microsoft Security Essentials and Windows Defender and firewall, etc.) and after the installation of SP1 for Windows 7, followed all procedures to know what to do after the installation of SP1.  Downloaded all the updates (which were more than 120) restarted and was satisfied with fluent how my laptop worked once more.

    After a week, I noticed my phone to talk more and more to load pages and would begin to get Windows Explorer "unresponsive".  It started with almost everything I opened and I tried to edit Web pages or click icon to redirect me to another window, I kept receiving "not responding".  Rose (Microsoft), what to do and monitoring tools to try to fix the problem.  Initially, the problem was to find for a few hours, then starting upwards.  After a few days, my laptop almost took 30-45 seconds to switch between the tabs or windows.  After a search through questions and answers in the Microsoft community and Microsoft Web pages, the bottom line was reinstall Windows 7 SP1.

    Yet once, uninstalled and reinstalled Windows 7 SP1 and again ran perfect for a few days.  I turned on computer laptop yesterday and noticed that it took a long time for the upcoming Windows logo and has a black screen for a few seconds before the logo appears.  Of course, out of nowhere, I went to IE clicked icon and took forever to get to Yahoo (which is my predefined Web page).  Each page, I'm going to again is freezing, "not responding" and very slow operation.

    It is so frustrating because I added not all programs at all.  I am running IE11, Microsoft Security Essentials, and that's all. Outside of Windows Defender, firewall, Explorer, Media player, etc..  Microsoft Security Essentials (I did a full scan) has detected no viruses whatsoever and I 264 GB 285 GB free on my C: drive.  Therefore, there is no problem with the free space.  I have deleted the old files, temp files, analyzed and defragmented my hard drive and am just lost as to what is the cause.  All my drives are underway and have no conflict with all devices.  If I go down my Windows Professional so I will not be able to download anything higher than IE9.  I love IE11 and am happy with Win 7 SP1 if only he would stay longer than 3 or 4 working days.

    Do you have any suggestions?

    How to reinstall Windows 8

    You have two options:

    If you want to reinstall Windows 8, which means remove applications and personal files and settings, you can use the reset and refresh. This is equivalent to a clean install.

    To do this, follow these steps:

    · Press the Windows key + i on your keyboard to show the charms (if you use a touch screen: touch the right edge of your screen and drag your finger to the left)

    · Click settings

    · Click change PC settings

    · Click general in the left column

    · In virtue remove all and reinstall Windows, click Start

    Then follow instructions that will be provided on the screen to reinstall Windows on your PC.

    Option 2:

    If you create an installation DVD or a USB bootable, you can use them to reinstall Windows. First, you will need to reinstall license qualification, then begin the upgrade to Windows 8. License of qualification means that you will need to reinstall Windows XP, Vista or Windows 7.

    Option 3:

    A workaround for this situation is to create a system image of Windows 8, just after you have upgraded. So if your drive plant, you can simply restore the image on a new hard drive or restore the image on the same drive, if you want to reinstall Windos 8.

    See the following for instructions on how to create an image of the installation process of Windows 8:

    (references Windows 7, but the same principles apply to Windows 8).

  • Reinstall Windows XP SP3

    I recently reinstalled Windows XP SP3. Reinstallation was successful, however, I think having acquired a "drive F" that I didn't have before. This disc is only 3.14 GB. All downloads (for example. Microsoft Office) seem to default to this disk and the available disk space is so low that the download does not load. This disc also has software like Windows files that seem to be duplicated on the local C drive.

    Why is my Local Disk F?

    Why are there records that appear to be duplicates?

    How can I increase the size of this drive?

    Note: I have not loaded one of my programs and files, and yet I seem to be low disk space!

    If there is anything you want to keep it on one of the drives (don't forget!) then during installation you can choose to delete the partitions and just leave XP to create a new. In this way it will fill the entire disc usually.

    There are other ways to do it via diskpart tools or a third party to kill the partitions, but the installer can do it too.
