| 778586 | 2009-05-31 06:53:00 | Hello, I'm trying to reinstall XP. Problem is that it keeps restarting after the Windows loading bar screen. This is after the Windows disk has formatted the HDD and copied the Windows files onto the HDD. Can't seem to proceed to next step. Will it work if I install the Windows from another computer then put the HDD back into current computer? |

| 778591 | 2009-05-31 08:03:00 | Thats a very old fault finding method going back to windows 95 ( maybe even earlier) - If there is problems loading first thing you do is remove the Modem (if it has one) - Modems can sometimes give all sorts of problems -- but yep good its going in OK now. | wainuitech (129) | ||
