Installing windows xp into acer aspire m1640 need help the computer is falling to boot intead is showing a blue screen

blue screen in XP is usually due to hardware issues. Did you add or change hardware? By now, probably your only solution is to repair windows XP by putting in the XP setup disk and get to repair. If you do the install, it will format your hard drive and you will lose your programs and files.

Is the computer booting? Fans spin? LED's blink? Sound? Have you tried another monitor? If so, check and reseat ALL cables. The specs indicate you have Integrated NVidia 7050 Graphics Adapter. You may need a aftermarket PCIe x16 Graphics Card to install in a open slot. Verify the cables are good and the monitor works on another computer first.

Look on back of your computer and look for a little sticker it should say xp or windows vista. Get a xp or vista cd and reformat your harddrive

that is a YES, alchohol on vista is a no no, it will get u BSOD,
solve it using restore, the one where u press F8 when boot
either restore last good config, or totally restore to a state b4 alcohol.
hope this help.

Acer Aspire M1640 shows a blue screen while installing windows xp pro

You'll need to setup the Acer laptop to boot from CD-ROM. Push either the F2 or F10 button when booting your laptop and it should bring-up the configuration management interface. Go through the options and confirm that Boot From CD-ROM is at the top of the list on bootable devices.

Next, you'll need your original Windows XP CD that came with the Laptop. Put it in the CD-ROM Drive and reboot your laptop. You will be given two options: 1) Re-install Windows or 2) Repair the existing Windows Installation. I recommend that you repair the existing Windows Installation as this will not destroy and data or device drivers that are install on the laptop.

Good Luck!
