Gigabyte motherboard with XP worked for a while with 2 HDDs (500GB) in RAID Array, I guess. By mistake installed another OS on one of the disks. Since then error by booting from the one left disk - STOP 0x00000007B (0xB84C3524, 0xC0000034.....) Tried some recovery tolls from Mini PE, what brings another BSOD: STOP: 0x00000067 (0xooooooo1, 0x00000008, 0x00000035..... I am able to read files on the hdd, after connecting the disk to another computer as a USB drive, but I would like to boot the disk in order to use the licence and upgrade it to Win 10, if not Win 11. Thank you in advance for your ..read more

After been sat for about a year (indoors), my Dell XP laptop will not boot. 1 It will go through the repair, but that doesn't succeed 2 There is a Dell checking utility. That's got a full set of OK results for memory, hard drive etc. 3 The laptop will not even boot up from the XP CD. 4 Viruses etc are very unlikely, as I don't connect the laptop to the internet. Any ideas on how to proceed ? I need the laptop running XP, as it contains diagnostic software for my car, which requires a 32 bit OS. Ideally, I would repair the installation, as the software for my car has a very lengthy installat ..read more

I've been wanting to get an old P4 system of mine running Windows XP on the internet for quite some time. The thing is that I switched internet providers a while back that switched my internet security from WPA to WPA2 which I have not gotten it connected since. I know that there's an update for it but I forget which one that is, and I believe last time I tried that update it didn't do anything. But a redownload would be nice. As for a browser google has become somewhat unreliable for XP, even though I used it years after it was discontinued a better one would be great ..read more

So my windows xp’s sound wasn’t working, and I thought that the sound device on the motherboard wasn’t working, so I installed the X-Fi Xtreme sound card. Still no sound, so I went to the website and installed the files via usb (this pc has no internet) and when I try to open the control panel for it, it says that the device isn’t detected. It’s plugged in correctly (there’s no PCI-E port so it just goes into the motherboard) and I’ve cleaned the contacts with an alcohol swab. Still not working and I have no idea what to do ..read more

So I've been trying to get a machine up and running with windows xp. I got a new hard drive for it, but I failed to realize my copy of XP is meant to be an upgrade, and the hard drive for this one is completely brand new. Thing is, I don't have any copies of the actual windows xp os. Is it possible to get it onto my machine via usb flash drive? If so, how should I go about doing it ..read more

I have an old custom Windows XP computer that I built a while back and I recently put an Nvidia graphics card in it to boost its performance but I don't have a manager for it. The onboard graphics has its own manager installed but its made by VIA/S3G which is incompatible. I once did get a manager installed with this same card with Windows 7 but I can't remember where I got the manager from. Any links to download one would be appreciated. Also the specific card I have is an NVIDIA GeForce4 MX 440 with AGP8X ..read more
