If you have an over heating issue then wasting ur time loading any operating is just that a waste. No u can not load an OS from an ipod. u have to load it from an external CDROM. Some of the newer mini's will boot from a flash drive but then you have to make the flash drive a "bootable device" not something a novice user wants to mess with. If u want to tare it down this far you can check the heatsink is firmly on the cpu. Make sure the exhaust fan is even working too. I wouldnt put alot of time or money in that evo with the prices of laptops being pretty reachable right now.

I have a compaq evo N620c and am trying to format it with xp. right now it doesnt get past the black screen where it says" We apologize for the inconvenience but windows did not start succesfully" and then...

When you place your Windows XP Disk in the drive, ensure that as the Notebook starts to boot, the words "Press any key to boot from disc ..." is on the screen and then press any key. If you do not get that option choice, go into the Notebooks BIOS and set first boot option to CD or DVD, then try again.
If the system you have on the Notebook is newer than the verion of XP that you trying to install, the Notebook will default to the newer system. A real pain! so make it boot from the CD not the hard drive with the bios settings.

I need to know how to put windows xp in my compaq evo n610c can anyone help me thanks [email protected]

If you have a recovery disc that came with the computer then you'll just need to boot from it. Now if you don't have a copy of the recovery disc, some computers come with recovery installation from hidden partitions on their hard drive. you'll might need to press on '0' (zero) to boot from the hidden partition and start the recovery.

In case you don't have either of the two, you'll have to purchase a retail copy of Windows XP and boot from the CD by changing the boot sequence from the BIOS. After booting from the CD, it will ask you some simple questions on the installation process and you should be good to go.

Screen goes off

Try booting into safe mode.. press F8 before the windows screen, and select Safe Mode as the boot option. If that is a temporary fix, then reinstall the driver, and make sure your Hertz settings are correct!

Contact HP.com and see what it costs to get a set of restore disks for your computer. Windows XP was discontinued on July 1st but you might find a computer store out there that has a set for sale.
