My laptop kept hangin at the welcome screen following a fresh installation of WinXp pro, It initially installed and ran ok but after the 3rd bootup it hung and told me it it had a product activation error, after re-installing xp 3 times and getting the same result I finally tried a clean install with a WinXp pro disk with XP sp2 slipstreamed into it, boots every time ok now, only 1 minor niggle to sort, sound drivers installed ok all looks well but no sound coming out of pc!!
Any ideas would be welcome...
