I have had two computers with Windows 98SE and three with ME, and now have one with XP, so I know all the different quirks. XP is quite stable. No run time errors like 98SE, no crashes and reboots. I find it a very easy to use, very stable system. I also like many of the features, such as the error log. Instead of listing errors that mean nothing to you, when you right click on the event you get an explanation of what that error means, what caused it and a hyperlink to link to click for further informations and solutions.I highly recommend this to anyone tired of the constant errors and crashes if other windows versions.
Remember that this software is Original Equipment Manufacturer software. It cannot be used to upgrade from Windows 98SE. There is no upgrade software on this disc. You can do one of two things.1) Get your hard drive partitioned and then load Windows XP into the new partition and make your computer into a dual boot (multiboot) machine.2) Wipe your hard disk and install Windows XP (Clean install).I ended up getting someone to do a clean install for me, because of problems with an ethernet interface board which was not compatible with my old motherboard.I found a book called Windows XP Inside Out usefull (ISBN-10: 0-7356-2044-X).Do not be tempted to install Windows XP alongside your old operating system. You can do this, I did.This review has been typed on the machine running this software.

Most of the hardware used in this experiment is not much different than it was for my Windows 10 dual boot approach. The hardware is now several years old but still scores within the top 30% of systems according to benchmarks, and was built for Windows 10+, not for legacy operating systems. It runs Oculus Rift VR software perfectly with the help of a 2070 Super and a still decent 4790K CPU. My 3DMark 2021 score on Windows 11 is around 8,500 (Battlefield V 1440p Ultra @ 100+ FPS) and my PCMark 10 score is around 6,030 (8,830 for Essentials, 8,525 for Productivity, 7,910 for Digital Content). On the windows XP 32-bit side, my 3DMark 2001 score at 1920x1080 is 72,145. Both systems are working great for their intended purposes.
One prevailing issue with getting Windows XP to cooperate on modern machines is its lack of USB 3.0 support. Or, more broadly, a lack of chipset drivers for many modern USB controllers. You can determine if this will be a problem for you if you have a keyboard/mouse hooked to integrated USB ports and are unable to use them when booting the Windows XP installation disc. I would recommend attempting this process several times with them plugged into different ports on your motherboard, since often there are multiple USB chipsets used and some (especially USB 2.0 variants) may still be picked up by XP especially if burning the SP3-integrated version or with other custom slipstreamed drivers.
I would always advise against downloading windows 7 from Illegal sites online. The main reason being most of these pirated copies of windows 7 are modified and have various spywares hidden in them, which are almost undetectable by most antiviruses. Using a pirated copy of windows 7 on your computer will compromise your private data to hackers and at the same time you will not be able to receive major updates for bug fixes and security.
Hi, my laptop was encrypted with some virus, thus I had to re-install my Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit. I followed the guidelines online in order to install the windows from a boot-able USB and successfully re-installed windows. However, within 2 days time I have started to experience the blue screen crash on the newly installed windows. I used the original product key of my previously purchased windows. Can you please suggest me what to do?
Hi I am using this to install on a laptop that has XP. I downloaded the file on that PC and then created a bootable flash drive. I am waiting for it all to load onto the flash now my question is do I just plug it in to the pc as is with XP on it or do I have to do wipe it out first?? Please help me I have been messing with this machine for 2 1/2 days now, thats why i decided to put windows 7 on it.
The windows 7 file you downloaded is in the .ISO file format. You need to burn it to a DVD or create a bootable USB flash drive using it. Once you have created any of them you can proceed ahead to install windows 7 on your PC. You can foolow this guide to create a bootable windows 7 USB flash drive: -to-create-a-bootable-usb-pen-drive-for-windows-7/
hey i ve downloaded win 7 home preminum but while copying windows file at starting it says you have unplugger ur usb drive or cd/dvd and when used to boot from pendrive it asks for cd location for driver to be installed
So Im trying to use the windows 7 dvd/ cd tool to open the iso but the iso does not appear on the app?Do I just plug the cd into my other computer that needs to be booted and it should work on that?
by looking at your post, you actually trying to install windows on the USB drive, not the laptop since USB drive use FAT32 extension and not NTFSsince like your confusethis link come with picture so i i hope it help you; -7-usbdvd-tool-create-bootable-usb-drives-dvds
With a dual-boot (or multiboot) setup, you can install multiple operating systems side by side on the same computer and simply choose which one to use each time you boot. So, why would you want to do this?
The Windows XP boot manager is responsible for loading Windows XP, and, optionally, allowing you to boot into any other operating systems you may have installed. If you've set up a dual-boot (or multiboot) system, as described in the previous section, the list of operating systems that is presented when you first turn on your computer is stored in the Boot Manager configuration file (boot.ini).

First of all, I would like to thank you for a great post with lots and lots of information.My mother's laptop is a Toshiba Satellite C55-B5350 which originally had Windows 7 Pro OA X18-82072 but I assumed she upgraded it to Windows 10 when that rolled out. I believe the hard drive is completely empty, except a 30 MB Boot drive I can only access when trying to load drivers. I followed the steps of downloading Windows 7 Pro SP1 COEM, then using Rufus with a 64gb USB and the "MBR partition scheme for BIOS or UEFI". Everything loads correctly and the first couple of prompts go smoothly but once I get to the part of installing Windows on to a Disk it fails and spits out an error of "Windows is unable to install to the selected location. Error: 0x80300024." I've tried looking at other sites and forums but everyone else had multiple disks/partitions and were typically dual-booting. I just have one disk showing, titled "Disk 0 Unallocated Space". How should I move past this error in order to do a clean install of Windows?
Also in the Skylake article -dell-windows-7-64-bit-reinstallation-sp2-oem-iso-for-a-uefi-bios/ you reference both English and multi-language ISOs. The multi-language ISO is under the NEW folder. Not sure what is under the old folder.
I just found the post 14/9/16 (with great Dell link) where you said you had issue on the 790 and 7010 (Interestingly, noted above, the Dell download for the 7010 is the English version of the Skylake ISO), but not clear why your image failed to load on the 780 (I will retest with a fresh USB stick when I can). Is this based on the 2011 DVD D0V2K? The 0x80070015 error looked like this -systems-with-the-intel-skylake-or-braswell-chipset-cannot-boot-to-dell-windows-7-media-due-to-no-usb-20?lang=EN . 2ff7e9595c
