While trying to install Windows XP, I get an error message that the files are missing.
problems with reinstallation
I have a laptop from my father in law. He still had his personal information on it so I tried to do a reinstall of xp from my cd. I did a format and begins to install. Then it appeared that there are missing files, and he did not finish the installation. Download a copy offline, or I have to purchse a new cd in a store? Thank you jennifer
It's not really answering your specific questions but most laptops come with a hidden restore partition that will put the laptop to a State "day one." Who can be the best option because it normally loads all the necessary drivers and applications too.
If you have published or look for the brand and model of the user manual it will detail the recovery options. A reinstall like this formats the HARD drive and start again.
Or did you specifically want X.P. and the lappy was initially delivered with Vista or W7

Original title: could not start the Service "Windows Defender" (WINDEFEND)
When you try to install Windows Defender, I get an error message that
"Service"Windows Defender"(WINDEFEND) was able to start. Make sure you have sufficient privileges to start system services.
How can I check which privileges I have and I need?
I noticed in the management of the tasks that Norton symlcsvc.exe ran and I was wondering if it was who collide with the Defender, so I temporarily stopped Symantec process running in the field of Services, but still had the same result, try to run the installation of the Defender.

Issue of Windows install
I just bought a HP Photosmart printer and I am trying to install the software on my computer. (OS is Windows Vista.) When I try to install my software, I get an error message that "Windows Installer could not be accessed". I ran "msconfig" and found that the Modual from Windows Installer status is stopped. How should I proceed?
Thank you, Jeanne Vecere
You could try to go to the MICROSOFT website, go to KNOWLAGE database and in the search bar, try the search for WINDOWS INSTALLER. Look for any version that is newer than the one you have. If this fails, try searching on GOOGLE. You can also try to do an update to WINDOWS VISTA.

Original title: Registery Error Message
During startup, I get an error message that the registry database cannot find a file and modify registry to delete the reference to the file in the registry. How can I do this?
Hello
- What were the changes made before the problem occurred?
I recommend you perform the clean boot.
Configuration of your system in a clean boot state helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem. If so, you need to maybe contact the manufacturer of the program for updates or uninstall and reinstall the program.
See the following article in the Microsoft KB for more information on how to solve a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or Windows 7:

I would like to install Windows 7 32 bit Home Premium on one of my old notebooks - I have the license key, but no media. The DVD - ROM drive is not reliable stuff, so I thought that a USB stick installation would be worth a try.
I have downloaded the file ISO in Digital River today, only copied the hard drive of my computer. I installed the MS tool to make a bootable USB key. When I select the ISO file I have downloaded, I get an error message that is not a valid ISO file. No idea why? He came from Digital River, so it should be a good record.

Digital River download site has been up earlier this week, and I downloaded another copy, so Windows 7 Home Premium - 32-bit. The name of the ISO file differs from previous downloads of this site, but this time, it worked.
