Hi, T His is probably because you installed SP2. You need to put the disk in and get the BIOS to boot from the disk - I don't believe I had to change anything to get the bios to boot from the CD - it just asked me to press any key to boot from CD ab boot time, then the setup program launched.

How to. Hi Andrew, I do have all Of these drivers. Installing them is no problem. Installing my copy of XP Home is. I can't do it within Windows, as Windows tells me that a newer version of windows is installed. If there was a way to install from a command prompt. I've tried formatting the C drive, but windows won't let me do that either, not sure how you'd do that these days.
