danleff 0 Posted July 8, 2009 Can you explain more fully what you did? It sounds like you re-installed Windows with a XP disk? Or did you use the recovery disk from the PC manufacturer? Share this post Link to post

danleff 0 Posted July 10, 2009 What was wrong with the original installation from the recovery disk? This apparently restored your system to the original factory settings? Generally, recovery disks will format the disk and install the OS, which is what you did originally, correct? Of course, this wipes the drive and all data that you previously had on the drive. From this point, you then need to customize the installation to fit your needs. Share this post Link to post
