• Product ID invalid when you try to install Windows XP on VMware.

  XP installation of VMware

  Hello

  I have a PC under win 7. and I am trying to Flash an old router to wireless access point for a spot of dead in my house. To cut a long story short, I need to Flash the router using a software program that does that on XP (I tried the compatibility options in Windows 7 and it does not work). Then I put on the implementation of a virtual machine using VMware and an old copy of XP, I had. However, when I try and install XP I get the error that the product id is not valid. Now, I know that the software is legitimate - it was part of a XP operating system provided with an HP laptop - so my question is how I can get through the installation? I will not buy another XP code - after all I will ever use again once I finished the flash - and for the same price, I could buy a new router!. I just want to save the Earth, a small piece of discharge potential and save myself $20!
  Any help appreciated

  Hmm I think the BSOD appears because you didn t add SATA drivers in the Win XP operating system.

  However, you can try to install Win XP on your laptop without the use of the SATA driver, but you can change the SATA AHCI in the BIOS in compatible mode.

• Error when you try to install Windows XP Service Pack 3: "We apologize for the inconvenience, but Windows did not start successfully. A recent hardware or software change might have caused this.

  Windows XP SP3 problem

  Recently, I met a problem with my PC and was forced to use the system recovery. Now I'm back to factory settings and try to install Windows XP Service Pack 3 on my computer. Windows Update won't work for me, that whenever I try to update I get [error number: 0x8024400A]. I think it's because I use Service Pack 2, or that's what I concluded after researching the problem, anyway.

  This is not my real concern, however. Because I could not get the update automatically, I tried to download and install the "Windows XP Service Pack 3 Network Installation Package for IT professionals and developers" myself. The first time I did it, I restarted the PC after the installation and was met with "We apologize for the inconvenience, but Windows did not start successfully. A recent hardware or software change might have caused this. "  I went into safe mode and went to a just system restore point before SP3 was installed, but now I don't know how to install it correctly without encountering this problem after reboot. I'm hardly the easy just stick with SP2 when there are potentially important available updates. How can I get Windows Service Pack 3 is installed on my PC?

  It's certainly interesting!

  If the cause of your problem is to have a HP PC with an AMD processor and an original image on your hard drive (and of course it sounds like this is the case), the solution should be to rename the file intelppm.sys and launch the sp37394.exe patch. Once done, the SP3 file that you downloaded from here:
  http://www.Microsoft.com/en-US/Download/details.aspx?ID=24
  SHOULD work!
  I'm puzzled why there is no intelppm.sys file in your directory C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers.
  Since you recently returned to square one with your PC ("return to factory settings"), then you may as well run the patch from this page:
  http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?cc=us&LC=en&DLC=en&softwareitem=PV-60484-2
  and try the SP3 Setup file again.
  But, first, let's be absolutely sure that we are both using the same terminology. Please answer the following questions:
  1. have you safely backed up ALL your data?
  2. what method did you use to ride "back to factory settings? I think that your choices have been a destructive restore (full) and a (partial) non-destructive recovery. The first erases the disk and leave you with a pristine image and NOTHING ELSE (which means that all of your programs and data get deleted). The other (which does not always correctly) is supposed to leave programs and data intact.

• try to install windows defender get message / delete microsoft client protection and try to reinstall

  try to install windows defender get message - remove microsoft client protection help please

  You apparently Forefront security or installed Microsoft Security Essentials. If this is the case, you can not install Windows Defender. MSE already has an element antispyware anyway. So what antivirus/security software you have already installed on the computer? I don't like Windows Defender on XP machines in any case. A better choice is MalwareBytes' Anti-Malware (free versions). Install and update / it run manually once a week or more. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

  Problems installing with "Windows Defender"

  While trying to install the 'Windows defenders' program, I was unable to complete the installation when a message popped up saying; "Found Windows Client Protection. Remove this product and return them to the installation to complete the installation. "I checked my computer for a program called"Windows Client Protection", but found nothing. I'm confused. What should I do to install "Windows defenders?

  My operating system is Window XP, Service Pack 3, 32.

  Hi Mitchjr,

  ·          You have databases of security of Microsoft or Windows live OneCare software installed on the computer?

  If you have two Microsoft Security databases or Windows live OneCare software installed on the computer, you will not be able to install Windows defender on the computer. You will need to uninstall them or do not install Windows defender on the computer.

  If you don't have Microsoft Security Essentials or Windows live OneCare software installed on the computer then you will need temporary deactivation of security software installed on the computer and then try to install Windows defender.

  Important: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you do not disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network during the time that your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.
