If the computer is blue screening while you are trying to install windows / format your computer. It is more than likely that you have hardware issues. I would recommend doing some sort of hardware diagnostic on your computer.

  • Tony Mar 07, 2011

    use a windows cd to boot to recovery console or hold the f8 get and if you have the option to enter recovery console.

    do the following

    chkdsk /r

    to run a scan on your hard drive and repair any errors.

I want to install xp2 in compaq presario cq40, but a blue screen is show

Hello Download the SATA driver for your particular chipset. Then download nlite (just google it). Install it and follow the directions to slipstream the driver into your installation disc. You can also add SP3 and all the drivers you need to it.
or go to bios and restore it to default setting if you have a sata hard disk then disable it in bios setting or RAID Auto/Ahci to RAID Auto/ATA then reboot from installation disk or You can get help from this site http://www.laptops-drivers.com/compaq/how-to-install-windows-xp-on-hp-compaq-cq40-115au.html
