Can’t Install Files to XP Boot Sector

by booler . Updated 19 years, 4 months ago

XP has a quirk where it will not allow some programs from installing into XP. The programs, such as Virus detectors, Zone Alarm, PC Cameras, etc don’t install but Taxcut and other programs will properly install into XP.

I believe that I had “blocked” any writes to the “boot sector” but can’t rememver where that switch is located to be able to unlock the boot sector.

Thanks for any help on this one !
