Hi pratimpal You should have directly upgraded to W7 instead of formatting . Try reinstalling Windows 7 on the same partition , it should work . Otherwise , back up all data on an external device , format entire drive while installing W7 and create new partitions afterwards with http://download.cnet.com/Partition-Wizard-Home-Edition/3000-2094_4-10962200.html Best regards , fanaudi .
Hello
I am also using win 7 home premium.With microsoft security essentials.
There could be a few reasons why its not working for you.
1 If you have another anti virus program it must be completely uninstalled. 2 You downloaded win 7 32 bit, and not win 7 64 bit version. 3 Download corrupt.un install essentials and re download and install.
There are 2 solutions to your problem-->
1-->FORMAT your PC with the XP prof. Disc
NOTE:- This will delete all the data on the drive(in which you have installed XP earlier)
How to format
2-->REPAIR your PC with the XP prof. Disc
NOTE:- This won't delete anything...But it will slow the speed of PC
It seems that the installation of your window xp service pack 3 through the device might be corrupt please try a different alternative or you can upgrade the xp professional if you have older version.
if your download this prof 3pack take over 10 to 15 minutes you must becarefull to install in your computer, you better re-download through windows update again.good luck
boot to win98 operating system. Insert the XP operating CD. IT will automatically open a window asking you to select Install winXP prof. It will ask for new installation and Upgrade (recommended)
select upgrade and select next and follow the instructions. it will restart and ask you select the os.
select xp in blue screen. install the OS other than C Drive.
please don't ever install in c drive.. do with caution.
What edition of Vista do you have? Without full version you can't put vista on first. You will need to have an old windows virsion like 98, 2000, .xp
Vista has about 7 differt Editios exp Home version complet, or upgrade,
Prof upgrade, or profel
if you have bought upgrade profl. You will need to have an old op of xp prof.
