I bought recently a boxed retail version of xp pro. However on the lid it said that the country of origin was the USA. Is it legal to install and use this on my computer in the UK?

The CDROM in my notebook has died and I desperately want to reinstall my XP Home installation. Luckily, I had copied the installation CDs that came with my notebook on the hard drive some time ago. What I would like to know if it's possible, and safe, to reinstall Windows from the Hard drive using the copied files from the CD?

I have problem with my computer running windows xp home. I have reinstalled windows many times in last 2 weeks and during this I also opted for the complete format (not the quick one) of Hard drive but after a day or two computer again stops working showing a blue screen and telling that windows have shut down to prevent some damage and from here it doesn't boot anymore. Some body told me that I would have to format Hard drive by DOS. Can anybody please tell me how. Remember that currently computer is not in bootable stage. thanks.

Re: Using two computers on the same Cable or DSL line. I am writing this letter to ALL Wireless Router manufacturers. I have a Linksys Wireless Router Model:BEFW11S4. It is 7 years (yes, count them, all of seven little years) old.

I found that there are no links to any wireless router setting websites that are congruent with the screen shots from Linksys' own self help technical support site. I have had to call Linksys several times to resolve this issue only to be placed on hold for le…

I have 2 CD drives on my PC. Both are cd burners. I am trying to copy an entire disk. The burner software copies the source info OK, but when it tries to burn to the target I get an "error" message. I have tried burning using both drives, and I have used 2 different burner softwares. Not sure what to try now - all help and suggestions appreciated.

We have been using Terminal Services for our desktop provision to staff for many years now and as a result we have many dozens of HP thin clients out in the field (and by field I mean teleworking locations and in the homes of our staff). 80% of our users are able to work remotely in this fashion and the remaining 20% work on the terminal servers using thin clients on site. We are looking to move to Windows Server 2008 and one of the main features we are looking to implement is the TS Gateway. Unfortunately while users with access to PCs and laptops (~20%) should have no problems I am growing concerned for the thin client users. Is there a list of sup…

Hi, XP SP2 fully updated except SP3 Trying O1O Defrag pro Says on chkdsk that "errors occur" and interrupts process. Have done 3-4 times chkdsk ( in nomrla mode and reboot, and 2 in safe mode) No change : O&O defrag state on errors, so does partition magic How shoudl I proceed to correct these errors ? Other related question: - if I do a format and restore an image of that partition ( Acronis TrueImage), will that restore the errors at the same time ? - if so how can I do without having to reinstall XP and progs ? Drive itself is OK ( from SMART data, nothing stating failure(s) ) TIA for help !!
