Umm what?! What does this have to do with the license agreement? I just want to know if I need the Windows XP startup disk when booting in safemode on a new hardware so the new drivers can be installed for the new motherboard.
This isn’t illegal…are you misunderstanding me?! Please I need to know this!
Umm…
No I meant for moving my current Windows XP operating system on my current HDD onto the new hardware’s primary HDD slot and booting into safe mode to install drivers so I can just continue on new hardware with the same software without re-installing anything…will I need the installation disk for that?
I’ll clarify it with the guy’s at best buy when I go to get my new comp this weekend.
Okay I feel reassured now.
Oh umm I don’t have a Windows XP installation disk…will I need it?
Mmm I could do that if I wasn’t so terrified and paranoid of something going wrong. I have anxiety problems, just seeing weird screens on my comp.
So Wolverine basically just boot into safe mode and it automatically installs all the drivers?
Well if Philip’s right, and I trust a staff member, then I’ll just go for getting a whole new OS with it and just installing my old hard drive as secondary and not booting from there, then re-install everything…
*sigh* Oh well.

Quite proud of my desktop.
Well I solved the problem myself and with the help of other friends turns out because of my inexperience I didn’t put the RAM chip in far enough. I was paranoid and afraid to jam it in further out of fear of breaking it. I finally did it now and both chips are in and working and my RAM is tripled. Thanks for the help!
Its PC3200 DDR-400/333/266 and I can’t return it since I opened the box already…so I’m screwed and I wasted my money?
I’ll try that when I figure out how to.
Also I have no other sticks of RAM and I have 512 KB of RAM.
Earlier I had the same issue and had to restart, and just a few minutes ago it happened instantly, just it started using so much CPU it had to restart, although perhaps my comp just froze as it happened instantly. I don’t know.
*sighs* I can’t reformat my comp I just don’t have the resources. I have a website to administrate I can’t have my comp go down the drain.
You know I made my virtual memory really large not to long ago maybe that was the problem…so I set it to System Managed Size and restarted my comp. Lets see if that fixes it.
Okay a bit okay it happened again, the CPU problem, it seems to have not changed at all. I had to restart my comp… *sighs*
I deleted all my temp files to see if that helps, also I’m going to delete my temporary internet files.
