I need help

Hi aqm0207,

How you try to install Windows XP Home Edition?

You may receive an error message "Stop 0x0000007B" in the following scenarios:

(a) a device driver that your computer boot controller needs is not configured to start during the startup process.

(b) a device driver that needs your computer startup controller is damaged.

(c) It can also occur if the hard drive in the BIOS configuration is bad.

You can check if the SATA hard drive is correctly configured in the BIOS (Basic Input Output System) & can also update the BIOS. If you are not comfortable to do, you can contact the manufacturer of your computer for help.

Note: Changing the BIOS / chipset can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/chipset can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

You can also check this link:Advanced troubleshooting of errors "Stop 0x0000007B" in Windows XP

Hope the helps of information. Please post back and we do know.

  • Satellite A200 - 1 GB - trying to install Windows XP Home edition but without HARD drive?

    Hello world!

    Recently, I bought a new laptop, Satellite A200 - 1 GB, and after two weeks of fighting against windows Vista I decided to uninstall it and install WXP whose permit, I bought a long time ago.

    I restarted my computer with the Windows XP cd to the inside and I start the system with it, but when it loads all the controllers and I proceed with the installation of windows xp, it says that there is no disk (probably) in my laptop.

    I hope someone can help me. Someone at - it windows XP installation experience in this laptop model?

    Hello

    The species has been described several times here in the forum of Toshiba.
    Recommend studying a little ;) would use the advanced search option Forum!

    But because you're a beginner, that I'll try to give some useful advice.
    The HARD drive is not visible because you need to first install the Intel Matrix storage controller.
    This controller can be downloaded form or another page Toshiba or Intel page.

    During the installation of XP, you will need to press the F6 key to include this iMSM in the XP installation. You will need an external USB HDD drive to do this.

    But if you want, you can build an own XP CD using nLite software and could understand this iMSM in the XP CD again.

    Help! I can't install XP! Blue screen of death every time?

    I am trying to install Windows XP Pro on an old hard drive from the laptop, beforehand I had it wiped, partitioned in two and made a NTFS format partition.

    I use a computer without a hard drive to install XP, the drive of the laptop is connected using an external hard drive box.
    The Windows XP computer on I use is a netbook without cd/dvd drive, that's why I use another computer to get windows installed first.
    The first installation is going well. I select the formatted partition I want XP must be installed. The files are copied from the XP CD on the hard drive. Then a restart occurs. The XP loading screen appears, but before the loading bar comes alive I get a blue screen.

    I am trying to install Windows XP Home Edition on XP Pro. How do I? I load it in the drive, reboot and it won't work.

    Without going into why you might want to do this, you may access your computer's BIOS and change the order of boot devices so that it looks first at the CD player.  When you start the computer, watch the screen carefully.  There will be a message that says something like, "to change the system settings, press F1.  The exact text, as well as the key, may be different.

    Restart the computer and press the key as soon as you see the message (you'll probably just a few seconds).  Once you are in the BIOS configuration utility, navigate using the arrow keys, the tab and button.  Navigation instructions usually appear at the bottom of each screen.

  • Local tech installed Windows Vista Home Premium after a hard drive failure. However, my key is Windows Basic. Is the copy, he put on my system illegal?

    Genuine Windows clean install

    Hello

    I had a problem with my laptop Acer Extensa 5230th. It was not started and so I took for Matech computers.  They diagnosed as having a mechanical drive problem.  So they replaced the drive and installed a more recent version of windows vista on.  Note: I haven't bought a new copy of vista family premium, he said he was going to reinstall vista.  It had windows Vista Home Basic, it has installed vista Home premium and said that he had validated by call from windows, but I'm suspicious because I don't think you can use a base of windows key to validate Home premium!  It means that he has put on an illegal version on windows or used the genuine key that came with the laptop.

    In addition, on computers of brands, if this happens again, how is a technician for legally to reinstall the original windows that it came with the new hard drive? How to install windows vista basic on the new hard drive by using the original key to make it genuine? What windows installation disc would you require? or is it easier to just buy a new copy of windows?  I heard that many technicians, prefer to install illegal versions of cracking of windows instead of the customer to buy the new installation of windows.
    Kind regards

  • We get an error "could not create a new partition or find existing. "For more information, see the Setup log file" error message "while trying to install Windows 8

    * Original title: 8 victory moved - Error Message: failed to create new partition...

    I have Win XP on my Dell Dimension 5150, which is the dual boot with Linux Mint 12 Lisa and this is my favorite of the bunch.

    I bought the DVD of 8 Pro Windows by an Australian retailer.

    Win XP is on a 39 GB partition with other application files. I had to delete several files to get the free space necessary to WIN 8 and finally finished by formatting the partition and passes for a COMPLETE new installation.

    Unfortunately, I now get the "failed to create new partition or find existing. For more information, see the Setup log file"error message. I can't find a Setup log file that I do a boot from the DVD.

    I tried to delete all external drives and other USB devices, including my Modem but my Wired USB keyboard/mouse.

    Two internal HARD drives are as follows:
    Disk 0 Partition 1-110 GB - system (LINUX)
    Disk 0 Partition 2 - 3.5 GB - logical

    Disk 1 Partition 1 - 47 MB - OEM (reserved) [DellUtility]

    Partition on drive 1 logical - 39.1 GB - 5:PROJECTS
    etc to score 8 with 9 MB of unallocated space.

    I have tried both 64 and 32 discs with the same result.

    As I have now is no longer no matter what Windows on my computer, what's the next step? If any ;-)

    Hello

    I solved the problem. It seems that you can not install on a secondary partition with in an earlier version of windows. You must restart the computer and run the installation from a dvd or other media.  Once you get the installation running you should be able to install on another partition without any problems.

  • BOOTMGR is missing, press Ctrl + Alt + Delete while trying to install Windows Vista Home Premium 64 - Bit

    Now that I got my 64-bit Vista in the mail and quickly install disc he jumped in my DVD player. The installation process went well until I was asked to choose which hard drive, I tried to install Vista on. I tried to format my hard drive to this screen, I was working with Vista 32 bit before that and saw no need to divide my two work machine with two separate versions of the same operating system. After formatting the hard drive, I have been unable to click on the 'next' button and engage the next step of the installation process. There was a message is displayed to the bottom of the window, as well tell a word about the installation of a machine already running windows. I would be happy to provide further information to the topic of my problems during this step, but my problems do not stop here.

    After you notice the message described above and do not get farther in attempts to install later, I decided to try to reinstall the 32-bit version of Vista and then maybe try to upgrade to 64-bit. However when I put in the CD at retail, rather than receive messages at the start of a disc, I have met with the harsh reality of "BOOTMGR is missing Press Ctrl + Alt + Del to restart." Since then got trapped in a painful loop switching between disc 32-bit and the 64-bit disk in the hope that it would finally let me begin with him.

    In addition to this logically faulty tactics, I also searched some online solutions. I made sure that my DVD drive is first in my boot order. My computer will not yet make Flex and give me the ability to boot from a disk.

    My question is this; How can I get my computer let me boot from a disc again?

    I will probably also need help to drive problem hard he, but as I can not even in a position to provide information on this issue at the time I need to have the above resolved dilemma first.

    I have a Dell Dimension 4300 S and I recently installed Windows XP Home Edition SP1a Version 2002 from the disc I have. When I try to download the SP2 and SP3 from Microsoft I get this box that says "extraction error." I can't download anything and sometimes, when I'm on the internet on this computer, it says "Internet Explorer has encountered a problem and needs to close" and I send error report and, sometimes gives me the blue screen and starts dumping memory. Also, it wont let me on the Windows Update page and the computer won't auto updates.

    Does anyone know what is the problem? I reinstalled Windows XP Home Edition SP1a Version 2002 two or three times now and linked the repair disk, and I always get the same problems.
    Let me know if I have to give any specs or whatever it is.
