| 690639 | 2008-07-21 00:55:00 | Do you have a USB optical drive to run the XP installer from or are yuo running it from a flash drive? | jwil1 (65) | ||
| 690640 | 2008-07-21 00:56:00 | "Probably neeed to do a repair install" From what? |

| 690641 | 2008-07-21 00:58:00 | From what? If you have an external CD or DVD drive, throw the XP install disc in and boot from it. When prompted press R for repair install. This will reinstall XP and leave all your files and settings in place. But it may be better to back up your files and wipe the HD and do a clean install if you prefer. :) |

| 690642 | 2008-07-21 01:01:00 | OK can handle that. Will have to take out the hard drive to save the files though. |

| 690643 | 2008-07-21 01:06:00 | Did it have a service pack on it before you put it on the net? It doesnt sound like it did |

| 690644 | 2008-07-21 01:14:00 | Don't know, I'll have to check with the owner when I see him later. He was installing vodaphone mobile software & screwed up somehow. |

| 690645 | 2008-07-21 01:19:00 | Sounds like it got hit by a worm or something I dont think software alone would have been the prob |
