Some of you need to read the "About ISO CD Images" http://www.allbootdisks.com/iso.html
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"These ISO images DO NOT contain any Microsoft operating system. You can not use these images to install Windows; they are for repair purposes only.

There are no ISOs for Windows NT, 2000, XP or Vista. If you need to boot from a CD to repair your Windows NT, 2000, XP or Vista computer, please use the original Windows installation CD, which is bootable."

is this recovery disks or windows itself

My hard drive crashed and I have replaced it but now I need to XP back on it .My question is can I use the key code on the sticker on my unit to download a copy on my laptop here to a cd so I can load it to my desktop or will I have to purchase a cd from a retail store

Thanks for your help
Greg

i would like to add if you are unsure of the service pack you have installed you can find out by clicking on start the control panel then system and in the general tab it will display the service pack there i hope it helped

How to download it

How to download it

When I donwload this xp will I still need a product key? I have 98 se and I want to upgrade to xp how do I do that without a product key?

It is NOT Windows XP!

It is a boot disc! They are 2 different things! This bootable cd is just to be used to repair an EXISTING XP installation!

I am now braindead, tried 4 different programs, resources to try and find a Bootable CD for WXP...nothing seems to work. The original bootable install CD doesn't work either (yes it's the original, not a copy or burn)... i uninstalled Norton AV and now i get the messge "windows could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt: windows root \ systems32\hal.dll" IF I could get to my hard drive I think I could fix it, but nothing seems to work. I downloaded an iso bootable cdrom file and i still get the same message again and again... at my wits end - any help would be appreciated

Hi all. I am at witts end with my HP Pavilion and would appreciate any help/advice/recommendations anyone has. After trying to repair the XP OS multiple times from the manufacturer's recovery CD to no avail, I finally decided to completely reformat and reinstall windows from the CD. After doing so, I ran chkdsk in command mode and it's showing no errors. However, windows still will not boot because the "biosinfo.inf file is missing or corrupt". I did a little research and supposedly this file is not included on the manufacturer's recovery CD and is only located on the Windows XP install CD, which I do not have because the OS was already installed when I bought the computer. Does anyone know where can I get this one single file and how I can transfer it onto my HD in DOS mode?

HOW TO YOU GET THE IMAGE ONTO A COMPACT DISK!!

My boyfriend's Compaq HP V2000 laptop was working fine last night. I have saved a majority of my homework on the thing since he got it back from the shop. This morning I went to turn it on so I could print off my homework before I left for school and the darn thing went into an infinite loop. It just keeps restarting. A blue screen shows up for about 30sec. that says:

stop: C0000218 {registry File Failure}
Registry cannot load the hive (file):
SystemRoot\System32\Config\SOFTWARE
It is corrupt, absent, or not writeable.

Then it goes on to say that it does a physical memory dump-- dump complete.

I have various questions regarding this:
1. I tried putting the downloaded boot disks from this site onto numerous CD's to no avail. The first disk works, then it asks for the second and that disk won't work. I've used almost all my discs so far and wandering if there is a way I can put this all on one CD (as I only have one left)?

2. I do not have the Windows XP Home Edition install disk. The laptop was in the shop before for the same problem except no blue screen. I keep trying to look online for any possible ways to fix my problem. Everyone keeps talking about a 'Recovery Console' but you need the installation disk to get to it. I can't start the laptop up in any mode. It just goes back into the loop. Any ideas on how I can obtain the installation disk or burn one onto a CD? We have no money to go out and buy one right now and I just need a quick fix for now so I can get to my homework.

3. His son has a habit of shutting off the laptop by pressing and holding down the power button. Could this have caused the loop? Everything that was on and done to the laptop has been done to my desktop (in fact, there's a lot more crap on my desktop) so I don't understand how this could have happened. The only other idea I have is that it's something to do with logging off and shut down or the hibernation mode. It would be nice to know so that we don't make the same mistake again in the future. Please help!!

If anyone knows anything, please respond ASAP. Thanks!!

Hej der...
Sounds like you all could use a little program like µtorrent....................

ive been burning discs for a while now, but i have never had to convert floppy files to iso's. the 6 boot files it gives are floppy files and i see comments saying to convert them with WinImage. How do I use it and convert multiple files at once to turn it into 1 ISO and burn it on 1 disc? help me please

Today I experienced the same disastrous error mentioned in a post above:

" C:\Windows\System32\Config\SOFTWARE is missing or corrupted."

Fortunately I had created a Bart PE bootup disk previously. I managed to boot up to minimal window mode using this disk but still could not fix the problem.

Then I found the solution at this page.

The important part to me was that it revealed where the previous SYSTEM file was kept : e.g. C:\System Volume Information\_restore{D86480E3-73EF-47BC-A0EB-A81BE6EE3ED8}\RP1\Snapshot . There are many such folders in running order like RP1001, RP1002

Using Bart PE CMD line or file manager, I renamed the SYSTEM file in C:\Windows\System32\Config\ to another name e.g. SYSTEM.buggy. Please note : in Bart PE, C: drive can be D: or other letter.

I copied a _REGISTRY_MACHINE_SYSTEM file from one of the aforesaid folders e.g. C:\System Volume Information\_restore{D86480E3-73EF-47BC-A0EB-A81BE6EE3ED8}\RP1\Snapshot to C:\Windows\System32\Config\ .

Then I renamed it to SYSTEM and then reboot. This should resolve the problem.

If you succeed to bootup to Windows, then click Start>All Program>Accessories>System Tools>System Restore to restore your system to the latest workable registry files.

If you have another computer you can download Bart PE freeware over the Internet to create the said bootup disk.

Good Luck!
