Hello Folks.
Can anyone help with the following?
My brothers PC had a serious crash, and just wouldnÂ’t boot up, it would get as far as the SAFE MODE option and then just reboot again.
We ended up removing the hard drive, sticking it on my PC and reformatting then installing a fresh install of XP Pro.
We reinstalled the hard drive back into his machine, hoping it would just boot up into Windows, but no, itÂ’s just the same problem.
I have the six boot disks for XP pro, they go through all the motions okay right up to the Welcome to Set UP, to set up XP press enter: but when you try to install it says something about no “End User Licence Agreement (EULA)”
Why is it doing this when there is already a fresh install of XP Pro on this hard drive? Is there something setup in the BIOS that is stopping it?
The machine is a
Packard Bell I Media 5069
American Megatrends (Ambios) 8S1ML motherboard
256 Ram
1.6ghz P4
I would even install my old Win ME if I could remember the commands at the prompts??
Any help would be much appreciated
