…And Windows lives to frustrate another life
Locked*I compress my hard drive, and cannot boot. So, I decompress everything.
*Something else happened, so I try to install XP Pro SP2.
*XP Pro SP2 has a known USB driver installation problem (which would stall my installation), so I try XP Home SP1.
*XP Home SP1 (upgrade) refuses to boot, so I get some setup discs for it.
*As soon as it asks for the XP SP1 CD, I get the BSOD for 0x000000f7 (faulty hardware, memory, or motherboard), so I cycle out RAM sticks until I find the culprit.
*Getting past setup discs, loading the CD, EULA, and precisely after formating I get BSOD stop error 0xc00000145 (Application error) saying that the application failed to initialize properly (0x0000006).So, now, as you can probably tell, I’m quite fed up with my computer, and tired of using my alternate PC for everything.
If you can give me any advice for fixing this all, once and for all (install XP home or pro and be able to run it), I’d be willing to sex you. Well, not really, but I would really appreciate it.
