Hi, can anyone please explain why in this site bellow it says that:
"If you are attempting to clean install with a Windows XP Home or Pro Upgrade CD, you will see this screen, which requires you to insert your previous Windows CD in order to verify that you qualify for the Upgrade version. Curiously, it says that you can use CDs from Windows NT 3.51 and Windows 95 in addition to those from 98, 98 SE, Millennium, or 2000, though these products cannot be upgraded to XP. Once you’ve proven that you qualify, hit ENTER to continue." http://www.winsupersite.com/showcase/windowsxp_sg_clean.asp
So does this mean that if i want to update my windows from 2000 to Xp i will need a previous windows CD ? I read somewhere else that only a Windows Xp CD will do, thats why i am really confused…
Windows 2000 to Xp (Clean install) ?
I installed windows xp home edition on an older computer(emachines, 366mhz, 128 ram) and now it crashes constantly. Sometimes I get the blue screen of death. It always says there is a different reason for the crash though. Other times it just reboots. I have tried registry cleaner programs but they seem to have made the problem worse. My computer only crashes occasionally if I use one program at a time. Using morpheus, winamp, and windows media player seem to increase the frequency of the crashes. Maybe my computer shouldn’t be running windows xp? But is there anything I can do to make my computer run smoothly?
Windows xp needs 128mb to run, so my ram should be good enough.
I had to re-install my OS back to windows XP home,service pack1. I’m unable to install service pack2, errors keep occurring.
