Windows XP installation software to reinstall windows?

I have a dell computer with Windows XP Home on the side product key.  How can I get the installation software to reinstall windows?

Dell should have provided you with a Windows XP Recovery CD or recovery hard disk partition. You check specific instruction manual. At least on some Dell compters the procedure press the F8 key during the boot process.

  • Whenever I turn on my computer I get a box that pops up and say "Update: there is an error during installation." Please reinstall the application.

    Whenever I turn on my computer I get a box that pops up and say "Update: there is an error during installation." Please reinstall the application"How can I do this?

    Original title: when I turn on my computer

    You should consider carefully as pop - up and determine what application has a problem.

    If he has no idea anywhere in the pop - up, first physically disconnect your computer from the Internet (because in the following steps, you will temporarily disable your antivirus software).

    • Click Start and type "msconfig.exe" (without the quotes) in the search box and press ENTER.
    • When the "System Configuration" window opens, select the tab "start".
    • Uncheck the half of the listed items (for your convenience, click on "Startup Item" in the column header to sort the items alphabetically)
    • Click OK and restart (click here to avoid the warning that you are in a diagnostic mode)

      If the pop-up warning does NOT appear, the problem application has been one of the items you unchecked.  If this is the case, reopen the System Configuration and check again half of the elements that had checked you.

      Similarly, if the pop-up warning appears, then the application problem is that remained turned on. In this case, open the Configuration of the system, again check the items that you had disabled, then uncheck half of the remaining items.

    • Restart and continue the process until you have identified the problem application.
    • Once you have identified the problem application, open System Configuration once more, select "Normal startup" on the "Général" tab and restart.
    • Do not forget to reconnect your computer to the Internet
    • Uninstall or reinstall the application issue.
  • DVD HP dvd200i drive: HP DVD Writer dvd200i installation software

    I removed my OEM HP DVD Writer dvd200i from HP Win XP machine died at a Win 7 machine.  It is not recognized, so I guess I need s/w installation.  Am I correct, and where can I get the s/w?  I searched HP support and can't find any s/w installation it for HP DVD Writer dvd200i model.

    What you need is not the installation software, but a driver.

    To appear in Device Manager?  If so, clidk right it and update driver.  It must install at least one generic driver.

    This isn't a young unit and unfortunately HP only provides drivers for it up to Windows XP.  You try to install the driver compatibility by right click on the downloaded exe file then compatibility mode.

  • I usually have problems with the installation software online, cannot install the creative cloud error 202

    The installation software that works online usually does not work on my mac, I can for example update adobe flash on my mac, never.
    When I try to download the creative cloud for the error of the trial I get an error Code: 202 regardless of how many times I try to redownload the dmg and run the installation.
    What I do with flash is usually wait a complete pack to be KMD and that works, I mean... when he can actually download the full pack and just install it instead of download an installer that requires even download stuff while doing the installation. I'm still some flash versions behind because of this.
    Also, I was able to download the software from my pc and then install it on my mac, but I can't find a link for creative cloud + photoshop trial.

    In other cases, for example for new OS versions I can get the installer from another mac, as there are instructions for the installer to a version installed.

    I need something like this available, including at - it something like that?

    Make sure that your computer meets the specifications.

    If it does and if you follow the 7 steps you can download directly here: Adobe CC 2015 Direct Download Links: Creative Cloud 2015 Release | ProDesignTools

    If you have a problem from the download, you follow the 7 steps, or your browser does not accept cookies.

    the most common problem is caused by failing to meticulously follow the steps 1, 2, and/or 3 (which adds a cookie to your system, allowing you to download the correct version of the adobe.com site).

    My lightroom was great before the crash to work and I have a lot of work still pending.

    You will need the catalog file and all your images. If you have also stored your images on which crashed HDD you will need to copy them as well.

  • Error installation software device driver for removable devices in Windows Vista x 64

    I have Windows Vista x 64 installed on my PC and nVidia Forceware motherboard and graphic cards.

    When I plug in any removable drive into my USB 2.0 port, Windows starts the installation of the device driver software and then sees it as an unknown device. The dialog where he asks me if I want to 'locate and install driver software', 'Ask Me later' or 'don't show this message for this device.

    I select the recommended option: "locate and install driver software.

    I click 'Continue' when Windows asks me permission to continue.

    Then, when the execution of the installer of the software in the bottom right of my screen, the installation of driver software for device, it shows "unidentified device failed.

    Then another window pops up saying this:

    "Found New Hardware - device unknown".

    Windows encountered a problem installing the software driver for your device

    Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error trying to install it.

    Kodak

    An error occurred during the installation of the device:

    The driver for this device is missing a necessary entry. Maybe it's because the file INF was written for Windows 95 or later. Contact your hardware vendor.

    If you know the manufacturer of your device, you can visit their website and check the support section for driver software. »

    That's what he does when I'm trying to connect my Kodak Easyshare M550 digital camera. I would go ahead and contact Kodak, but the problem seems to extend to ANY removable device on my computer.

    For example, I have a Lexar Flashdrive. When I plug it into my USB 2.0 port, it Windows says the following:

    "Windows needs to install driver software for your USB Flash Drive", etc...

    'Install the device driver software', 'USB Flash Drive search Windows Update'...

    Then a window opens asking me to "insert the disk that came with your USB key. Problem is that no driver disk not supplied with the hardware that Windows Vista is supposed to come with the drivers. I know this because the camera and usb flash drive worked very well until I reinstalled Windows Vista on my new hard drive (new installation, because my old hard drive crashed) and I've NEVER had to install device drivers for Windows to recognize it as a removable drive and operate automatically.

    Also, I installed Daemon Tools Lite and I had to manually "Update" the device driver to point to the "Windows\INF" folder in my hard drive, after copying the cdrom files needed for the specific subfolders for windows to let the program assign a drive letter for the drive virtual it creates.

    I think that perhaps not all device drivers have been installed when I installed Windows Vista, this time. If that's the problem, I don't know how that could happen, nor how to fix it, but I really prefer to find a way to solve this problem without reinstalling Windows Vista again. I don't mind not manually install the drivers as long as someone can show me what files to copy and where to find them on the Windows Vista disk that I bought at Microsoft. I KNOW that Windows HAS come with these drivers.

    If anyone knows how I can fix this, please tell me, because it's ridiculous to not be able to use any removable device readers (except for the use of all Flash drives). Thanks in advance.

    I know it can be frustrating to solve problems.

  • Drive hard crash, now is not the installation disc to reinstall windows 7

    Original title: Windows 7 Home premium Installation

    I bought the Asus laptop who already have Windows 7 Home premium oa installed in sea. The problem is that my hard drive got crashed and I bought a new and now I want to install my windows on this drive, but I don't have an installation disc. What would be supposed to do? I have just the product key for Windows 7 Home premium oa sea.

    For 5 years, Microsoft made it fairly easy for users of the Windows 7 operating system to get reinstall media. If you have lost your support disc or installation retail collection; either it has been damaged or defective; You can download a copy of the edition that you have licensed from a membership site called Digital River. More recently, Microsoft ended the availability to reinstall media that you can download as a. File ISO in Digital River, which is a digital reproduction of an optical disc.

    It was particularly convenient for people who could not easily get the manufacturer's recovery media, did not want to pay the fees required to get or preferred a clean configuration without the software packaged manufacturers or even a recovery partition does not work. It's easy to use, all you had to do was reinstall and reactivate using the product key located on the certificate of authenticity and download all the drivers on the manufacturers website.

    Given that this option is no longer available, what are your options? See the article for more details:
