Xp setup error

If you ever had Vista on your HDD then it’s someth I also faced…

My friend got same erros and BSODs when he tried to reinstall XP after removing Vista!

In the end,onl thing he could do was install Vista…I used 5 diff CDs on his rig and none worked except for Vista…

So,Best of Luck with your problem…:frowning:

… maybe a solution would be to copy the files to a partition, boot to dos and install. If you have an external hard drive available you could do it from someone elses computer.

First of all u have no right to say in such manner.

If its an unattended setup, are you trying to install something to a drive other then the system drive? And the other drive is not formated?

You guys have gone in a complete wrong way to diagnose the issue. If you had actually looked into the txtsetup.sif i guess you would have found the answer. probably that line contains a wrong parameter for the unattended setup. It may work right on the hardware for which the unattended setup was created for, but may or may not work for the other hardware if that line contained a hardware specific parameter. Anyways, good to know that it worked after changing the DVD drive. probably that parameter got loaded right for that DVD drive you have there

hey did u follow that this i said dude try u friend computer and isntall that hd with new os :wink:
