Windows XP can be installed on a new hard disk that is 500 GB?
The hard drive on my Dell laptop d 620 crashed so I bought a new one that is 500 GB. The windows software that
has been installed on the computer is Windows XP. My husband wants the same thing on the new hard drive. The old hard drive
has been 80 GB. My family tried to install Windows XP on the new drive and tells me that it is not compatible with the
larger capacity hard drive. It's not logical to me, but I'm not that computer savy. Is this correct? Thank you, Kathy

You need two things to support a drive larger than 137 GB:
1. a motherboard with a BIOS and a controller that supports 48-bit LBA supported (or alternatively, an add-in controller card that does).
2. at least SP1 of Windows XP.

McBook hard drive is dead and can not install Photoshop to new hard drive
Dear support team,
Because of my McBook hard drive died, so I replace the new hard drive but I can't install Phototshop to my new hard drive because of the licensing problem. Help, please.
What version of PS do you have? If you have CS6 & previously, you will need to contact Adobe to have them reset your license.

Installation of Windows XP Service pack 2 on a new hard drive
I have a Dell Precision 380 and intend to install a new hard drive. The new hard drive will be the same mark and the same size as the original hard drive that came from Dell in the computer. It will be a Seagate 160 GB. I have the disk of Windows XP Operating System installation Dell provided with the computer (Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2 CD for reinstallation). It is a SATA hard drive.
After I install the new hard drive that is not partitioned or formatted, I intend to load the operating system in the same way I reformatted the original hard drive in the past. When I reformatted the hard drive in the past, I started by pressing F12 and follow instructions on the screen and had no problems with the installation. Everything was fine.
Now my question is the same procedure will work with the new hard disk that is not partitioned or formatted. When I press F12, I take you through the same procedure as before? Will be the operating system as it is installed on the new hard drive partition and format the hard disc, as he asks me questions during installation? Will I need to do something else or simply follow the installer as it appears on the screen? I should be grateful if you would help or advice.
Hi cbcenterplus,
Its good to hear about this issue with the system has been resolved to your satisfaction. If you have any questions in the future do not hesitate to contact.
Thanks and greetings

Windows 10 can be installed on Boot Camp Version 4.1
Hello
Windows 10 can be installed on Boot Camp Version 4.1? Whenever I do a page search thishappens which show how update but I have read that Windows 10 requires an updated Boot Camp (v6).
Or better yet 6 Boot Camp out again? If so, how do I update my Boot Camp?
FYI: that's what I did to get the version of Boot Camp, I went to my Windows partition click on icon Boot Camp and click on the button on Boot Camp and I got 4.1.
I'm running Windows 7 on Mac OSX El Capitan.
Any advice?
If you already have installed W7 you can pass up to W10. Bootcamp may be necessary if you need to re - install W10. If your model of Mac is not listed in the link you found, Apple does not officially support W10 on your Mac, which means that there is no W10 driver certified for your model of Mac.
