Have you tried windows update?



Good Luck
search from microsoft.com



although, i suggest you to ask if one of your friend have it ( the sp2 installer) because the size is large %26gt;100mb(if i'm not wrong)
You'll probably need to buy it.
Below is a link that will take you to the Microsoft web site. Click on the link entitled How To Get Windows XP SP2 which will open a web page describing how to get this upgrade.



http://support.microsoft.com/xpsp2getins...
you can also get sp2 from www.softwarepatch.com and click on the windows tab on the left and scroll down till you find sp2, it is about a 270mb download. this is where i got mine and i have had no problems with it

Windows XP - How do I check if I have SP2 installed?

I have bought an add-on that tells me I must have SP2 (Service Pack 2) installed.



Evidently it is a key update that should have been installed over 2 years ago automatically, but some PCs still don't have it.



How do I check if I have it or not?



What do I press?



Sensible answers please - Point Hunters will be rated low!

I have windows xp pro installed and am trying to install SP2 and it will not nomatter where i go it

y is this i just installed a fresh copy of xp pro



I have windows xp pro installed and am trying to install SP2 and it will not nomatter where i go it wont instawindows update



First of all, check your install CD to see if it already is SP2. If it was included on the CD then it's already installed.



Second, try going to www.windowsupdate.com. That is microsofts windows update site. It should tell you to upgrade to SP2 if you don't have it installed.



Third, if nothing else works, is your copy of windows pirated? You will not be allowed to install any updates through the internet without having a legit copy of windows.



I have windows xp pro installed and am trying to install SP2 and it will not nomatter where i go it wont instamicrosoft excel internet explorer



have you tried windows update if not make sure this is a legal copy



switch to linux(ubuntu) best idea!
Is it possible your fresh copy of XP Pro might already be an SP2 copy. You can download Belarc Advisor and check everything about your computer including which version of XP Pro you have running
have you tried the microsoft website?
U don't need Belarc to find out ur specs, just right-click the My Computer icon, click Properties, and the General tab says it all.

Can I install windows Xp in two languages?

I have downloaded Malayalam version of windows xp. Now im using English version Xp sp2, Can I install both two languages of win Xp at same time?



Can I install windows Xp in two languages?web browser



Yes but you have to install separate copies. ie. you have to install XP twice and in different partitions.



Installing in different drive partitions is critical to avoide system conflicts.



After you do this, you get selection menu (asking you to select between two XP) during booting.



But, you have to restart your computer to shift from one XP to next.



Can I install windows Xp in two languages?windows installer internet explorer



No it is not possible....
Yes and no.



You can operate Windows XP in 2 languages, but not at the same time.



What you can do it:



1. Install XP, during installation it'll ask for language settings. Select one default.



2. Install support for the other language you want.



3. Now from control panel you can go to regional settings (or something like that) and keep changing the language as and when you want.



PS: Re-installation of OS is not mandatory for multiple language support.

To recover th administrator password requires special software and either a reinstall or thrid party access through software. You can do some searching at microsoft.com and come up with their basic information. but i also know it can be done with erd commander and fairly easily



If i clear the cmos battery i can recover the xp pro sp2 adddminsitrator password?safari browser internet explorer



Removing CMOS battery will only reset the BIOS and BIOS password.



XP admin password is stored in hard drive and you need special software or OS installation discs to reset it.
that will defiently NOT do it... that is to clear a BIOS password
NO. the complementary metal Oxide battery works on the Bios and the mother board



not the hard drive



go to google and type administrator password recovery
No, clearing the CMOS battery will only clear the BIOS password. It will not effect anything on the hard disk such as software passwords including those used by the operating system.



If you can get the .SAM file off the hard disk which holds all the Windows passwords, you should be able to run L0phtCrack against the file to perform a brute force attack.



If you believe that the password is complex, i.e includes numbers and symbols, also consider downloading a set of rainbow tables to speed up the attack.
No. You will only change the setup configs.
Google this. "sourceforge rainbow tables" you'll find a way to make a live CD %26amp; do what you need

How come I can buy windows xp professional for $39? Is store a scam?

www.OEMSOFTWEAR.com



they have windows genuine xp professional sp2 pack for only $39 free shipping. are they legal?



How come I can buy windows xp professional for $39? Is store a scam?windows live messenger



I've seen this before on EBay. It's an OEM version (ships with a new computer system), so it just comes in the box. Some companies (IT departments) that get alot of computer systems passing through don't really need all of these "backup" disks laying around, and if they sneak out and appear on the internet, oh well. However, on EBay, to make it legal, they shipped the sofware with a working (or nonworking) junk piece of hardware, like an old memory stick so as not to violate license. However, in this case, who knows if they've already used the cd key to activate something.



How come I can buy windows xp professional for $39? Is store a scam?microsoft money internet explorer



This might or might not be a scam, I would say 80% scam, 20% not-a-scam in my opinion. I found very few listings on Google and there's not really any info on the site. I'm not sure, but I'd say it's a scam. And most results say office, not the OS.
More than likely yes it is a scam. It is illegal to sell oem software w/o hardware as far as i understand.
I wouldn't go for it.



1. the advertis free shipping from over seas



2. they don't show up in BBB.org (http://search.bbb.org/)



3. usually a company that is selling software will have company email and not a personal email (and they offer no telephone number)



4. site just looks poorly constructed. If it's legit, it would surprise me.
Careful, that might just be another license. If it really is the full version, scam, if the store isn't listed on Bizrate, http://www.bizrate.com/ (in store ratings) then I wouldn't buy from them. I would also see if it is possible to look them up on the BBB, http://www.bbb.com/ if they aren't listed there then that just screams scam. If they don't have any lables from the BBB or Bizrate on their site, I won't buy from that store.



On the other hand if a store has the Bizrate seal of excellence on their site... buy from them, you won't get let down. Even better if they have both the Bizrate seal and the BBB shield... wow... don't shop anywhere else.

There's something wrong in either your CD or CD-ROM drive

It sounds like some sort of rom file was corrupted in your computer or a damaged disk drive. There shouldn't be any harm done to it now but you should talk to a local computer technician.
Ubuntu uses a different boot sector type - incompatable with windows.



Boot off DOS diskette (win95 startup disk?)



at the command prompt



c:%26gt;



type in



fdisk /mbr



go and load windows - it will work now.
insted of changing hard disk, try changing your cd-rom drive. if the same problem arises, try changing RAM. It's definetely either cd-rom or ram problem. I faced such problem %26amp; solved changing any 1 of these 2.



THANK YOU.
Since you have changed the harddisks and also tried several installation disks of different OS, the error remains. It would appear that you have a faulty or dirty CD drive. The drive is not reading the CD properly and terminte the installation process prematurely.



Try changing anther CD driver and try again.



Sometimes, pulling up the connectors at the back of the drive and at the motherboard and re-seat them may fix this kind of problem.



If you have a dirty laser head in the CD drive, one would have to open up the case and use clean water or spirit with soft cloth to clean the laser head. Do not use other cleaners

Windows XP Service Pack 2 Frequent Crashes.?

I have just reformatted my windows and installed and now it is run on win xp sp2. But my computer would crash/freeze completely all of a sudden like once every hour or so. I also have antivirus program BitDefender 2008 installed and have just ran its registry scan/cleaner. I’m now trying hard to find out the cause and to fix this. I was thinking, could the registry scan/cleaner have messed up the win xp’s registry and thus causing these crashes? Also I’ve noticed every time I shutdown/logoff windows, “spool.exe” would have trouble closing and I would always have to force it to “end now”.



Windows XP Service Pack 2 Frequent Crashes.?windows movie maker



Try using your xp CD to repair your current windows (it is not a reformt, you wont lose your files). As for spool.exe, some people are saying that it is part of a worm/virus but one site says it is a windows file. Try downloading a program called spybot (http://www.safer-networking.org/en/index... and download their latest scanner to see if you can find that file.



Also if your still getting errors with SP2 then I am sorry but you might have to reformt and only install SP1 (had same kind of problem with old computer) either that you you buy a new HDD because your current one might be dieing.

Display setting needs to set at every restart in window xp pro sp2?

hi, i m using xp in domain. a user in an administrator group gets the resolution of 1024x768. but a normal or domain user get 800x600.



the user must be add in admin group then and only it will get 1024x768. my system is hp d530cmt. display adapter is intel 82865.



even i had installed latest display driver but there is not solution for that.



if u have any tips or trick for the same. pls give me.



Display setting needs to set at every restart in window xp pro sp2?windows media player 11



i think you have some group policy security enabled in domain computer.. you should check in domain computer group policies in



administration tool %26gt; policies



Display setting needs to set at every restart in window xp pro sp2?microsoft publisher internet explorer



Your problem exists that the administrators has pre-determined that users will only gain the 800x600 resolution. The users are configured as a manditory configuration which means the individual user cannot change their settings and everytime they log in they had a basic required setting. If you want the larger settings, ask the administrators to change your settings in the users group settings.
This may not be an issue with group policies as group policies generally create restrictions and allowances. If you are able to change your settings after logging in then I would suggest you talk to the administrator about updating your user profiles. Mandatory profiles are generally used to update display resolutions, printer settings, power options, task bar configurations, and other areas of configuration requirements. Just keep in mind that policies are restrictions while mandatory profiles are configurations.

Enabling PAE on Windos XP Home SP2?microsoft excel



I think you are looking in the wrong place for the answer PAE will not find the missing RAM. PAE (Physical Address Extension) is a feature provided on recent processors to allow the use of memory above 4Gb (the limit on 32bit system). As you do not exceed the standard 4Gb limit of a 32bit system PAE would be useless.

Windows SP2 installation frozen?

I just recently reformmated my laptop. (I have windows XP) I installed all drivers needed and also critical softwares on windows update. Everything was successful except I cannot install windows SP2. I downloaded it, but when I proceed to installation it would not get past "checking product key" section. It would just be frozen, and there is no error code. I have a genuine copy of windows XP so I don't understand why it won't work. I have tried more than 20 times and have also left my laptop running without any programs opened for several hours, but still it would not move past "checking product key" point. Do you know what is wrong and how I can fix it?

Is windows sp2 really needed cuz i reinstalled my xp copy with sp1 and my computer seems faster?

No it's not needed, but it does make certain aspects of your computer safer if you're not familiar with all the in's and out's.



Is windows sp2 really needed cuz i reinstalled my xp copy with sp1 and my computer seems faster?internet browser



Well, you're right, Windows XP SP2 does slow down, older... and... I do mean OLDER systems. That's not a problem for someone like me who is on top of the latest and greatest. But, I would suggest that everyone installs SP2. It's more of a memory problem than anything else. I'd say have no less than 256MB of memory if you want to have SP2, 512MB highly recommended, 1GB is even better... but why not have 2GB of PC3200 memory (which is what I have in my desktop).

It is absolutely necessary at this point in time if you are connecting that computer to the internet. The number of exploits that are available (and now fairly well documented) to even novice "hacks" makes it needed.

You can obtain free Windows Update support, including SP2 installation issues, by contacting Microsoft support: http://support.microsoft.com/oas/default...



Also see: Windows XP Service Pack 2 problem Solver: http://winhlp.com/WxSP2.htm



This fix will probably work:



1) Please go into the CMD prompt (Start/Run --%26gt; cmd.exe )



2) Then type cd /d %windir%\inf and make sure we are in that directory.



3) Then type ren oem*.inf oem*.old, it will go back to the prompt after giving you some error (Do not worry about it)



4) Then type ren oem*.pnf oem*.old1, it will go back to the prompt after giving you some error (Do not worry about it)



5) Then goto start - run - type "%windir%\inf" and you will see the files in the folder.



6) Then find the file by name INFCACHE.1 and take a backup of it to desktop (by copying it to desktop) and delete the INFCACHE.1 from c:\windows\inf.



7) Close all windows and reboot the computer to safe mode and start the installation of SP2 and it should go fine.

Press alt-tab sometimes a window will get tucked behind another one.
I used to have the same problem on my earlier computer. Make sure you have SP1 installed first, that might fix it.
According to Microsoft (see article in link below), the license key you used to install XP is "known as an invalid product key."



I don't doubt that you have a genuine copy of windows XP. The article in the link below shows how you can verify whether your copy of XP is valid.



If the product key continues to give problems, contact the place that sold you the original XP product and license. Maybe they put a wrong sticker on the system.
It sounds like you may have a validation problem. Not accusing you of having bootleg software, :-), it is a known problem with the Windows Genuine Advantage Program. The best thing to do is contact Microsoft and give them your code key over the phone and they will tell you how to fix the problem. You might also look at the Genuine Advantage website for more information.

When you purchase a new laptop, you go through a brief small install that personalizes the settings for you which will include ask you for the admins password.



If you lost that password, hold down the f5 and start the machine in safe mode. Then go to the control panel and reset the password.

How can I get a genuine windows xp copy without paying 150.00?

3 yrs ago a computer repair man in my town fixed my pc. It came with windows me and I let him upgrade it to xp sp2 but he didn't give me a cd for it. I don't know how to get in touch with him and I can't remember his last name and I don't know where he lives. Just last week I got a message on my computer screen saying I may be a victim of software counterfeiting because my copy of windows isn't genuine. I can't afford to pay $150.00 to buy a new copy of xp and I didn't know the man was putting an illegal copy on my pc. Can anyone help me or tell me what I can do?

There is nothing you can do once Microsoft detects your copy of xp is illegal,except to buy a new cd and install it. Walmart has the home edition for around 100 bucks.

Go to newegg.com they are usually cheaper. I don't know about xp personally but they are warehouse price not retail. You can also delete the most current update to windows. that's what I did and It got rid of the warning message ^_^
ring up microsoft and tell them you were sold an illegal copy...but you will have to give them the details of this guy and they can fine him...but in the end if you didnt pay for either an upgrade to WinXP or the full version then you will have no other choice but to buy a legit copy of the OS

Format unix kubuntu for windows xp installation?microsoft updates



you need 2 partisans on your hard drive you need to put windows on in the first partition and you need a swop file



Format unix kubuntu for windows xp installation?windows server 2003 internet explorer



Well from what you say I guess you want either to remove kubuntu or just install XP. Well just boot from your kubuntu live disc and partition the drive.
From another computer, make a nuke cd disk from



http://dban.sourceforge.net/



Boot from it and let it clear your boot area and drive, then you should be able to install ok.



If you can get the Windows cd to boot, have it delete the partition, then format.
run your kubuntu live cd, click on install, on the partition dialog box delete and then create your partition and format it as ntfs or fat32....

How to get rid of Windows XP copied files?

I have installed a new hard drive a few months back. At the time, I apparently made a copy of my Windows XP by dragging the Windows folder from one drive to the other. (I know this was stupid)



So now I have Win XP SP2 on my default "C" drive (where I want it)



and I have Win XP folders on my new "F" drive.



I can delete the Win files from the F drive, but they reappear after I restart.



How can I permanently remove all Win XP files from my new HDD which has over 250g worth of files on it? I would format it and start over except that I would be losing everything.

Windows xp passwords?microsoft vista



You can try this service: http://www.loginrecovery.com/



If you do not want to do that you can take your hd to another pc and hook it up as a slave drive. You can get any files from it that you need. You may be forced for reset the NTFS permissions using this method so if you change any system files the drive may not be bootable again any you may need to format it.



Windows xp passwords?windows xp pro internet explorer



Well there is a few ways. The way I would go with is call tech support and they can talk you though it. The other ways will be to hack your own computer from another one and create a new account and than use that to log in. I would go with the first one because if you use the hacking you can get in trouble.
http://www.password-reset.com/?gclid=CN3...
Go to this site



http://home.eunet.no/pnordahl/ntpasswd/



and get the boot CD. You can then set the administrator account password so you can log on.
The best solution would be to boot into Safe Mode and use the Administrator account. This assumes the previous owner did not password protect the Administration user – something uncommon for most Windows users.



* Simply reboot – or power on the system – and press [F8] when you hear the beep



* Then select [Safe Mode] from the list and wait for the system to come up



* Select the [Administrator] account and access the Users tool from the Control Panel



* From here you can change, remove, or delete passwords and user accounts



* Make your modifications and reboot into “regular” Windows and all should be fine



There are other alternatives should either solution fail but the more “advanced” solutions get a lot more technical and can be used for less than ethical reasons so I will not disclose them in an open forum. You are welcome to email me if this avenue is of last resort.
There are hacker tools that you can purchase that can reset the password, I bought one, cost 29.99, worked like a charm.



I can't remember the name of it offhand but just do a search under forgotten xp password.
Pull the hard drive, make it a slave on another PC and pull the files you need.
call your manufacturer, I had a similar problem once on a dell and they got me in in about 3 mins.

This is a hard one. Windows XP paging file.?

XP SP2, 160GB HD (brand new). 768MB RAM



On profile logon to Windows I get "Your system has no paging file set or it is set too small". It then goes on how to fix it. I've browsed the web, done the suggestions. no help.



Pagefile.sys is not being created on the root of C: I have checked, rechecked, blown away and recreated permissions for SYSTEM, Administrator(s), and the users. Permissions seem fine, I can access all files without fail. Software installs no problem. Still, this error.



I have:



Tested RAM - good



Tested HD - good



Tested MB - good



Done XP repair install. - goes great.



Updates apply without issue.



This is the last hangup i've got before this system is running normally. Anyone have any other suggestions?



This is a hard one. Windows XP paging file.?windows media center



Right-click on My Computer and choose Properties.



Go to Advanced.

Choose your C drive and then System Managed size.



This is a hard one. Windows XP paging file.?nintendo ds browser internet explorerThis answer is incorrect for the issue at hand. Following Joshua's instructions do NOT solve the problem as stated. He simply states how to set the page file. Well, you can do that sure, but when you reboot, your changes ARE NOT SAVED. That was the issue. Report It


Try this it might be of a help to you:



Right click on my computer and click properties.



Go to advanced tab.



There will be three settings buttons, you need to click on the one that is under the performance section.



Then go to advanced tab on that window.



On the bottom of the advanced tab there is virtual memory.



click the change button.



And then there will be three options to select from, even the custom size or system managed size or no page file.



To to do a custom size put it from 16 to 1500.



See if this will resolve the issue.



If not try the system managed size.



Then try to do the repair from the XP CD.



Hope it helps
I'm betting you've tried the other answers, here's a couple other ideas.



Make a DOS boot disk(this cannot be done in a dos window) with the ATTRIB.EXE file on it. Boot from the disk, go to C:\ , type attrib pagefile.sys and enter.



If it's there, it will show as having the H and S and maybe R attributes. Change them like this



attrib -h -s pagefile.sys (add -r if it was there)



now, delete it and reboot to windows, if it's still a problem, it's a registry thing, the D word value is incorrect in the key shown below(example).



From Start, Run, type regedt32 in the box, click ok and go to the following location:



Hkey_local_machine\System\CurrentContr... Manager\Memory Management



There you will find these entries:



PagingFiles:Reg_Multi_SZ:C:\pagefile.s... 190 380 (or similar)



TempPageFile:Reg_Dword:0x1



If the PagingFiles: entry is populated, delete the entire TempPageFile entry then reboot.



best I can do, hope it works!

Do I need to have Windows SP1 to download Windows SP2?

My computer recently died and I had to install a new hard drive. I now have Windows XP (Home Edition), where before I had Windows 2000. There are a lot of updates to do... but at the moment I have neither SP1 or SP2. What should I do?



Do I need to have Windows SP1 to download Windows SP2?microsoft office 2003



Install windows then install SP2. SP2 includes all the SP1 data.



Then install all the other post SP2 updates about 100 of them.



don't forget to install all your drivers.



Do I need to have Windows SP1 to download Windows SP2?windows xp professional internet explorer



Get SP1 first, then do SP2.
yes, you need SP1 installed first.
SP2 is very essential for the safe functioning of your computer
No you dont need SP1 to install SP2. Once you have that installed, windows update should take care of the rest.

What Windows XP cd do i need to get windows on my macbook?windows mobile internet explorer



It's MAC for a reason. u can't!!!
Either one will work as long as you have the Macbook with the Intel chip.
I'm not too experienced with BootCamp (or Macs, for that matter.) but I believe that you will have to use SP2.



You can't upgrade a system that is not there, so you can't use the upgrade disc.
You will need the full version of XP, not the upgrade, unless you already have a older version of windows on your Mac....
Doesn't matter what cpu it has, macs are designed NOT to have a bios chip. That's means cannot be used like a normal pc.



You can, however, make a dual boot on it with winxp and Mac OS X. It has to have the OS X on it for it to work.
any will work as long as it has intell on the mac box

Unofficially, yes it is. It's available to manufacturers, university network admins, and other testers. It was still in beta but I think recently it was finalized but just awaiting an offical release.

Why does Windows XP freeze while i am installing it?

I am installing xp SP2. It gets to the point where it detects how many harddrives. then it searches for previous versions of windows. it takes a long time to do that. it freezes when you pick what partition on what harddrive to install on. anything i can do? help would be appreciated



Why does Windows XP freeze while i am installing it?microsoft powerpoint



Check the following,



1. CPU fan is working fine (may be your processor overheated).



2. Verify your HARD DISK for bad sectors.



or try to create partition and format the hard disk using thrid-party softwares. Like Nortan Disk Manager or Seagate Disk Utilities.



After that try to install the XP (SP2).



Need more help, reply me.

It sounds like you have low memory on your system. Without more information, I couldn't say for certain.



Make sure that you have enough free memory to install the service pack. If you're not sure what that is, check the microsoft site.
i think ur trying to upgrade or reinstall cuz the same thing happened to me i would say give it 20 - 30 mins b4 u even consider rebooting
How long did you wait? Like the above poster, I'd say wait half an hour. ;)

Windows XP with service pack 2 updated.



Device recognized just fine on two friends PC's with XP SP2



Got device off Ebay and works fine. Manufacturer unknown.



tried all USB slots in front and back of PC



Dell computer and is about 3 yrs old.



I have had no issues with any other USB or Plug%26amp;Play device



From what I have researched, I am not missing the necessary driver. It IS on my computer.



possibilities mentioned so far are



Registry error



BIOS



I would really like to avoid reinstalling XP if at all possible.

might be wrong usb ex. usb 2.0 device or hub are not compatilble with each other



Unknown Device with USB flash drive in Windows XP. Please read details fully, and any help would be great!?microsoft internet explorer internet explorer



well good news it has nothing to do with your OS. you need to update your BIOS you can find the most recent updates on the manufacturer's website of your motherboard along with instructions. I strongly suggest you read the instructions carefully
All you have to do is go under device manager and right click the unknown usb port and click properties and click driver and then click update driver, Well you should have downloaded the driver from the manufacturer first but then find where you put the driver and use that and it should work then or after a restart.
may have USB 1 ports and will not work with the device -- not a registry im sure of that one -- umm why the BIOS would stop and give device error - in the Bios would either turn on or off the ports. assuming the driver is installed for the port.



I have a toshiba laptop that is about 3 years old as well and has USB1 ports and some (newer) thumb drives wont work on it
Can't be sure this is the issue but it is possible that your machine is USB 1.1 and the device requires USB 2.0 and will not work on 1.1.



If you do have USB 2.0 you may not have installed the enhanced drivers to activate 2.0.



Just a thought.
I have the same problem I just right clicked on it and disabled it , my computer is running fine without it.

Mp3 player not recognized in windows xp, usb problem?

hello,



i have a problem with my usb drivers I think. Whenever I try to plug a digital camera or mp3 player in it tries and asks me to install drivers. I think that Windows XP normally should have generic drivers for this? I tried to install the drivers from the MP3 Player CD and it says that these are not the right ones.



I have an ECS K7S5A Motherboard with USB 1.1 and Win XP SP2.



On my notebook the devices work without problems and without installing extra drivers.



I deleted the USB Controllers in the device manager and reinstalled it and it didn't help.



Mp3 player not recognized in windows xp, usb problem?windows server 2003



does it take a 2.0 usb port, here is a good driver update place if you ever need any



Mp3 player not recognized in windows xp, usb problem?windows xp service internet explorer



There could be a problem with the MP3 player's driver. Usually you can download updated drivers on the manufacuter's website.
What you need to do is install the BIOS Host controllers. It should be in your Motherboard Drivers CD. If you don't have the CD, u can get the driver's from the Motherboard Maker's site.



Make sure u search the right driver's for your motherboard's model.



Usually this happens in some brand desktop models (Dell, HP, IBM).



If that don't work, there might be a chance that the USB jumpers on the motherboard might be set incorrectly. For that u need to open your desktop %26amp; use the motherboard's manual to locate the USB jumpers.



It's definetly not your MP3 player. If it works on 1 PC, it should work in other PC's.



Hope I answer your question!

My hd already have xp pro sp2 on it .still windows want detect it why?

can i manualy add my hd or something like that?????



My hd already have xp pro sp2 on it .still windows want detect it why?microsoft exchange



I don't understand your question. Maybe you don't even understand it.



Ok, if you are using a computer successfully, you ALREADY HAVE an operating system on it.



So, what exactly is "it" when you say "still windows won't detect it"? Your HD or xp pro sp2????



Did you insert a HD with a copy of xp already on it? Or does you computer just not recognize the fact that you put a new hard drive in?



Ok, if XP doesn't recognize a hard drive, just do this:



1) Make SURE your jumper is placed in the SLAVE position



2) Make sure everything is plugged in correctly... cables and power



3) Make sure you have the correct drivers for your dard drive



Now, if you put in a hard drive with xp pre-installed, it will just plain not work. Why? Because your master boot record indicates that you are ALREADY using a different windows from a different hard drive. AND since it was pre-installed, it would have beem preinstalled on ANOTHER COMPUTER. That means that it ONLY INSTALLED the hardware for the OTHER computer onto that hard drive. In other words, it won't recognize THIS computer.



If you want to run 2 versions of windows on the same computer, you must:



1) Have two hard drives OR partition the hard drive into the correct partitions



2) Install (from YOUR computer) both operating systems in their rightful places (one in each HD or partition)



Now, with that being said, running a duel-boot machine is a VERY advanced thing to do. DO NOT attempt it unless you have READ ALL ABOUT IT and KNOW what you are doing.



Hope that helps!!!



My hd already have xp pro sp2 on it .still windows want detect it why?windows vista ultimate internet explorer



can't detect your system or can't detect your harddrive? try to remove the cables and attatch it again. To test if your pc detects hd try pressing delete button when starting up and boot to bios, you can check your hd if its detected it there. If your system can't be detected, you might have to install your system again which may be caused by corruption of files or other reasons.
have you set the hd to boot off that one in the bios under hard drives? but it is because the bootloader isnt engaing.if you installed it on that machine its probably because the bios doesnt know what drive windows is on



http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthr...



you probaly need to change the jumper settings on the drive if its on a different cable as it wont necesaily be the main boot drive
what is hd- hard disk ???



you dont need to add hard disk drivers for windows xp. but if you are using external hard disk, which is non plug and play, they you should install drivers for that device.

but this is the way i do it, you do not have to follow my way, but just use about 20 gigs for xp

I'm not sure about how much space Visual Studio will take, but I think about 10 Gb will do fine. Add another Gb for each 512 Mb of RAM you have in your computer, so you'll have room for the swapfile.
10gb
seven is plenty
why bother, youre already using linux, get a different release. i use linspire xp2007, and run windows applications in a VM shell.
If you can manage 10 GB would be sufficient but i would like to know why you want 3 OS on a single machine is it really necessary ?

Window's XP SP2 wordpad file manue SEND yields error 000004C7?nintendo ds browser



I can't believe I know the answer to this... but I do. This isn't a problem with wordpad. This is a problem with your email client. Your problem is probably with outlook or outlook express. Either it's not configured properly, or it's having errors. Try reconfiguring your outlook account and try again. If that doesn't work, try downloading Mozilla Thunderbird and setting that as your default mail client and checking to see if wordpad will use that instead.

How can i get windows xp pro running without buying it, all i need is the code?

its a emachaines t1842 and i dont think its the original hard drive. it was giving to me and it just needs the code for windows, it has xp pro sp2 on it. do i have to go out and buy the software just to get the activation code for the windows that is already in it,or is there a generic code out there



How can i get windows xp pro running without buying it, all i need is the code?windows xp professional



you would have to call up microsoft and tell them your story and get a code from them and worst case you will have to buy a code from them for like 50 to 99 bucks...



How can i get windows xp pro running without buying it, all i need is the code?windows xp home internet explorer



codes everyware



go too



crackspider.us



type in windowz xp and try and find what version you got
almost impossible I would say call microsoft they should solve your problem..



but I am creating a program that will fix your problem so if you want to wait a while I'll give you it
You've got two chances firstly if the copy of window is valid ie not pirate, then the person who gave it to you should have the install disk or a system recover disk and should then also have the code, if they've lost this you can buy a new code from microsoft as long as you can prove that you've got original software, if you can't prove it's valid your only option is to by a new valid version



(or you could look on the internet and get a copy of Linux for free something like the Debain version when installed with the Wine software it 99% compatable with all windows software and you can fit it with a front end that means it's identical to XP from your point of view)
Unless you're absolutely sure that the code you have is authenticated you can run into some real problems. Microsoft should help solve this problem, but even if they make you buy the code, they shouldn't make you buy the whole software package again.
You must buy your own windows xp cd and register it with Microsoft. Any pirated xp will be detected and you won't be able to use the internet.If you do get on the internet,they will authenticate your xp to see if it is pirated-if so,they will not let you get security updates or windows updates.
