computer is dell dimension 9100; when i install win xp home on my computer, a big problem happens. when i reach the windows setup screen, where you press enter, R or F3, nothing happens, as if keyboard just stops, but the keyboard works fine up until that stage. already tried this about a dozen times.

P.S. cannot login on my OS
my computer hangs on the blue welcome screen with windows logo(just before login profiles) even if i tried all the other login methods like safe mode, etc…thats why i need to reinstall XP… Really need help! Thanks

Hello,

I do not ask questions here, but I’m desperate. Here is my story: I had bought a computer 2 weeks ago.

Compaq Presario SR2180NX
Intel Pentium D Processor 820 (Intel Viiv)
250GB 7200RPM SATA
Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 950
Windows Vista Home Premium (Windows Vista is the devil!)

So, after using Windows Vista for two days I got sick of it and I wanted my Windows XP again. I tried reformatting it and then tried installing Windows XP, but then no hard drives were detected so I clicked enter and next came the ‘blue screen of death’.

So, I installed Windows Vista back and lived with it for 4 days. But then another problem shot out: My internet was extremely slow! Usually I have 30 Kilobits per second download speeds but it became 1-2 Kilobits per second, and the internet browsing became slow to the max!!

I do have Windows XP Professional SP2, but all I need is the SATA RAID driver, which I cannot find. At least that’s what I think I need.

Too long,
Ab

I have a Windows XP disk and the key from my old laptop and I don’t like Vista. Is this going to be a terrifying process?
added: It’s not OEM, bought a dumped refurb and had to buy and install the Windows disk myself.

I currently have a Western Digital Caviar SE 250 Gb installed, and want to get a Raptor and put the OS and games on that. But I still want to keep all the info that is currently on my Caviar without uninstalling Windows and formatting. How can I do this?

I’m not in the mood to reinstall everything from an external, is there a way to uninstall or deactivate the Windows on the Caviar so it can be installed on the Raptor without deleting all my info? Will Windows give me crap when it comes to activating it on the Raptor, is deactivating it on the Caviar even possible? I’m running XP Home.

Thanks

Here’s my system: GIGABYTE GA-P35C-DS3R LGA 775 Intel P35 ATX Motherboard/Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 @ Stock/ ATI Radeon x1900XT 512 mb/3 GB DDR2 Crucial Ballistix PC2 6400/SATA 250 GB 7200 RPM Western Digital Caviar SE/Silencer 470 PC Power and Cooling PSU.
