I have the newer version on my laptop, but i got the same error on my desk top. You may have an older model computer that doesn't meet the requirements for this new application. What really burns me up, is that I can't go back to the version I was using, either.\nPerhaps you have a copy of XP and it won't allow you to update.

This is a problem with Windows XP and Service Pack 2. Check out the link at [1]. Sure, the CD-ROM in question is different, but it's the same error. My advice to you therefore is to visit the site at [2] (English translation via [3]) and look for an update download package for your machine. Either that or just contact them at [4] about the error. You're probably not the first to get this! Good luck!

dont system restore until nothing else works. if you can get in long enough to do this then do it or boot into safe mode then goto system properties and on the advance tab look down on the Startup and recovery then click settings then go in the re and disable the automatically restart option on the system failure. You are good to go it will give you an error then basically you research the error any way you want to get your answer i do recommend xp pro. xp home has alot of errors because of sp2. that will get you started. i would try also after that press F8 and select last known good configuration from the menu. hope this helps

no way to get around it if it fails because your copy of windows is illegal. the only way would be to get a legal copy of windows, format your hard drive and install the legal copy.\nyou could also try Mozelle fire fox as your web browser

Try this link to see if your XP is a valid copy.  If it's not, I'd sure go back to that dealer and demand he make it right or you'll report him to Microsoft for selling pirated XP.  And I'd also demand the XP install CD as well.\n\nsupport.microsoft.com

Not sure, but if you copy of XP is genuine, you can just download the SP from Microsoft. Download from: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/sp2/default.mspx

Microsoft has made that task quite hard.\n\nYou have to call in to Microsoft to get the code to activate a copy of Windows XP.  If someone has already gotten the code, you cannot.\n\nI suggest not pirating Windows.  It is just like stealing.\n\nPEACE IS COMMING SOON!

The MS online electronic validation key is $99 for XP Home and $149 for XP Pro, both with SP2.  You can usually find legal versions (recommend full install rather than upgrade) for less at:  www.edirectsoftware.com\n\nYou can do a repair with the full install Cd and enter the new 25 digit Product Key.  That will give you a legal version as well as repair any missing or corrupt files.  You will have to go into the MS Updates to reinstall any patches or hot fixes.  The repair takes about 1 hr, and the reinstalls of fixes/patches about another 30 minutes.

Kindly disregard the previous advice, as it doesn't pertain to your problem.\n\nTo fix your problem, boot to your Windows CD and perform a "repair installation". \n\nHere are instructions, with screen shots, on how to do that:\n\nhttp://www.webtree.ca/windowsxp/repair_xp.htm#How%20to%20Repair%20Windows%20XP%20by%20Installing%20Over%20top%20of%20Existing%20Setup:\n\nNote: When you get to the page you may have to scroll to the link that says "How To Run A Repair Install"

~ Would you please edit your post and give more details about what you're trying to do ?\n\nAre you trying to reinstall your operating system, drivers ???\n\nPlease be as specific as possible, so we can better assist you.\n\n\n\nEDIT:\n~ I apologize for not getting back to you sooner, things came up.\n\nFirst, backup all your important files before you do anything else!!\n\nHave you tried/considered  a Repair install? \nI would try that first.\n\nThis is from Dell's site:\nhttp://service.dell.com/dell/kb/tech_support/view_article/1,,6418+6429+18287,00.html\n\nAlso here:\nhttp://www.michaelstevenstech.com/XPrepairinstall.htm\n\nIf that isn't what you need, then here's a couple of sites that provide a  "step by step" for a reinstall. \n\nJust remember if your XP CD doesn't have SP2 on it, this too will need to be reinstalled.\n\nhttp://www.winsupersite.com/showcase/windowsxp_sg_clean.asp\n\nhttp://www.windowsreinstall.com/winxphome/installxpcdrepair/indexfullpage.htm\n\nhttp://www.cyberwalker.net/columns/aug02/010802.html\n\nDon't forget when you do a reinstall that you have to "re-activate" your copy of Windows with Microsoft.\n\n~ I sincerely wish you the best with this endeavor, and I hope it goes easily for you. :)

Yes, you can download it, without any problems..When I got my service pack 2, I ordered it from microst, on a cd..This was free, I did not even have to pay for postage..That way, I will always have it, in case needed in the future..Also, they encourage you, to pass it around to your friends, and family..But, if you want to download it from there, you should have no problems..Get it here..\nhttp://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/sp2/default.mspx

Try to have a clean install of winxp. Refer to this site:\n\nhttp://www.michaelstevenstech.com/XPrepairinstall.htm\n\nIt will reinstall all XP system files, but will not touch your installed programs, and other personal documents you have

Here is your fix:\n\nYou MUST have an OEM Win XP CD.\n\n1. Boot up with the WinXP CD and at the Setup Screen press the Enter Key.\n  \n2. You will be taken to the Windows XP Licensing Agreement. Press F8 to proceed.\n\n3. The next screen gives you the option to do a fresh (clean) install or to repair\n     the selected Windows XP installation. To run a Repair Install press "R".\n\n***CAUTION*** if you do not see the option to repair the selected Windows XP\ninstallation DO NOT choose the option to continue installing a fresh copy without\nrepairing as that will overwrite your data and cause unrecoverable data loss.\n\n4. If you originally installed XP with Service Pack 1 and later installed Service Pack     2,  you will need to re-install Service Pack 2.\n\n5. If you have any Microsoft Office products installed,  you will need to re-activate\n    with the Product Key code. Contacting Microsoft may be required.

Insert your xp disk, and boot from it by pressing any key upon boot.\n\nGo through all steps that you would normally go through for an install it will tell you it found a copy on windows and ask if you want to continue.\n\nPress R and it should start to repair the copy  on your computer.\n\nThis is the most valid answer to such a vague question.\nThere are many things that can cause this from corrupt system files to incompatible hardware.\n\nDon't take it to that IT person again obviously they don't know jack.

if it is a retail copy of XP, try contacting microsoft support, but if it is an OEM version (ie. came with the PC) you probably will have to contact the computer manufacturer or reseller.
