@Goomba141 if i restart my computer not in vm virtualbox then press f12 its work or not

[Begbucks]

But wouldn't it be better to ditch the Vista or 7 entirely, not partition it & load a dedicated version of only the best...

....Windows XP?

[romek3289]

wow windows xp 16:9 install



[TheShufflingBoy]

i have problem too

when i came to setup everything freezes and i cant click anything on my keyboard!

i tried changeing what devices will bios boot first but its same thing again!!

HELP!

[TheShufflingBoy]

@NumbskuIl you need to choose in bios setup so the first thing bios will do is boot from you CD drive ..if u r lazy to change it then just press F10 F11 or F12 on bios for chooseing what device you want to boot first

[naughtyangel1319]

@TheShufflingBoy when i selected the BIOS setup i noticed the boot sequence ( is that where you should go) i see you can change the order so should the order be? cd/dvd drive then the internal hdd? and then what?

[SpongyEpisodes]

[11TechGuy]

Hey man I nuked my Laptop hardrive. and it has no boot sectors so if I boot it up from the cd will it fix it and install win xp?

[Chrisean88]

arent you allowed to install xp if you insert your cd while your computer is running?

in other words, should you boot from the cd to run the set up?

[OF1C14L1]

why cant iboot xp it says" no bootable cd in atapi cd rom " any ideas

[b2j135]

how do I do this with an hp laptop?

[Thedddhomevideos]

Sun, really?

[VampireIchiho]

[TehEggrollTeh]

@VampireIchiho Make sure you are an administrator on the computer, if not then it wont let you. ;)

[KASHMIRI7864LYFE]

@VampireIchiho i want to do the same thing im worried that i wont find drivers

[VampireIchiho]

@KASHMIRI7864LYFE u can find drivers on the internet( for xp and win7)

[KASHMIRI7864LYFE]

@VampireIchiho bf3

[haleel01]

i think i get it you format the hard drive and ram clean then you just xp it

[edris33]

The video was great and easy to follow thanks a lot!

[tuxcup]

Mine is 4.1 OSE 100GB hard disk (ubuntu)

[plopdong]

Thanks good Vid

[cantona118]

Funny how when I click install it just starts the the pc normally -.-

[cantona118]

Absolutely terrible video. I'm a noob and you expect me to follow this tutorial.... Seriously -.- not everyone's good with computers.

[MrRawrieatyou]

so just put the cd in and re-install thats it?

[JhonnyBoyLive]

@MrRawrieatyou Yes. If you know about computers it's just booting from the CD instead of the hard drive.

[TeusGnR]

sorry my english is very very bad,but, this likely in windows seven ???

[Intellmac]

Wow only 36 mbs free!

[Supaluigi62]

Every time I try to boot up from the disk, I end up to the point where it says, "Press enter to set up Windows XP" but when I do, I get the blue screen of death. Help?

[mikie72956]

@Supaluigi62 you need to go into bios b4 you try install, make sure your hdd config is set to IDE not SATA, or I believe depends of what SP you can have it on AHCI

[speedemon574]

Vista sucks. The only resaon I have Vista is that it came with my pc. And I'm putting eather Windows 7 or windows xp

[danielcubillosk]

wouldnt be windows xp asking for a key ????

[bob2934r56]

@danielcubillosk use a key generator

[DanesGames]

Outstanding tutorial, this was the only helpful one I found which helped me to exactly what it is meant to...install XP over shitty 7. Thanks very much for taking the time to put this together!

[55RIste]

when i run windows xp into virtual pc 2007 it lags, is that normal ?

[MrAshmed12]

hey myne says

a problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer.

if this is the first time youve seen this stop screen restart you compute. remove any newly installed harddrives or harddrive controllers. check your hrddrive to make sure it is properly configured and terminated.tun chkdsk /f to check for hard drive corrouption and then restartyour computer

technical info

stop: 0x0000007b (oxf78d2f24,oxcooooo34,0xc0000­000)

plz help i have a laptop.

[mikie72956]

@MrAshmed12 once again go to bios and set your hdd config to IDE not SATA, depends on what service pack you have you can do AHCI. Like my crosshair IV formula board can set certain SATA ports to raid while i can have IDE, AHCI on the remaining or vice versa just so i can specifically like it states in my manual for that purpose is to install legacy OS's

[murkins001]

yeah.. because i need play game only on xp :)

[xelalena]

your video only showed how to install Win XP! I'm expecting that you show a video about downgrading Win 7 to Win XP! Where is it?

[MONYARM1]

@xelalena thats what he showed you

[xelalena]

@MONYARM1 That really was a simple setup of Win XP! No downgrading involved! I did that all the time and that just gave me blue error screen! My HDD is healthy my VGA and Memory as well! Is there anymore ways you could help me? Thank you!

[TheZASTAVA750]

[shikamakausis]

!!!! TO ALL OF YOU !!!! who got brand new laptops that came with Windows 7 and want to downgrade to XP but you can't because it wouldn't read your hard drive. i've got the solution, just messege me and i'll try to explain to you what you need do.

[KASHMIRI7864LYFE]

@shikamakausis how ????????????? help me

[huntermellor]

will this work with reinstallion disk

[JJbones88]

This video sucks, what about the factor of your new manufacturer doesn't have drivers. We need drivers for new PC's running 7

[shikamakausis]

@JJbones88 i've got the solution for that ! it's not on the video or anything but i could explain you what would you need and stuff if you havent done it already, after awhile of working with my laptop i got it to read the hard drive when i put in the XP disk. first of all you need to make sure you got the drivers for your laptop and if they will support your XP OS

[z1cey0]

@Goomba141 I got windows XP on a CD.

But when I try to do what you are doing on my Laptop.. i just get blue Screen of death and i have to Reboot, why? :s

[BMWM3GTR77]

does this work for ISO file?

[greatsmither]

ok so i fuckinghave a dell inspiron 6000 and 2 gb ram wit a intel centrino 1.6 ghz and i hacked microsoft and got windows 7 for free ever since i did that i fuhked up my computer nasty and now it runs slow before use to run smooth :( is there any way i can down grade to xp :P please reply :(

[shikamakausis]

@greatsmither if you had xp previously then you should be fine downgrading exactly the same way you upgraded, you'll only need a XP disk or Vista depending on what you want, if it dont work that way then you might need to go into DOS and reset the settings or check the HDD settings there cos it might changed them, i had similar situation with my dell desktop pc,

[ravenfaster]

[TheVilla4eva]

windows 7 is good for features on desktop but for laptops id say xp is better (less problems)



[andrea22borman]

If your computer came with Windows XP when you bought it. Why not just do a restore to factory condition recovery? This will put it back to the way it was when you bought it. And Windows XP will be back on that way. Andrea.

[addres999]

works on win7?

[EminemBeastFan24]

hey how do i downgrade from windows 7 to xp i think i got legit i used windows anytime upgrade to upgrade from windows 7 home premium to windows 7 ultimate i used a generated key but i think its legit because i used my real windows 7 home premium to install windows 7 home premium and now i think its legit because i used a serial

I have a problem. When I restart my PC, and click F12 it only shows these available devices to boot from : SATA Hard Drive, Flash Memory Stick. No CD, and yes, I did make sure that the PC sees the disk before restarting.

[SuddenattackRawks]

Where did you find the F12 Screen?

[NeedFSpeedCarbon]

@SuddenattackRawks It should appears in your screen on start up, if it doesn't

Press F8 F12 or Del

They are the most commons

[StormyBlade]

Hey can I delete Windows 7 (C:) if I press D on Partition 1 (NTFS)? And then I can install XP on it?

[StormyBlade]

You will need:

-A computer

xDDD

[OwnageIncBFinch]

This might install Windows XP, but - it doesn't install hardware drivers such as USB ports, chipsets, etc. And because your example was shown in VirtualPC, all of the above problems are emulated, so they don't showup. Downgrading outside of VirtualPC won't work, period.

[dante2k8]

Hi can you do a tutorial on how to dual boot window xp with windows 7 as your current OS, so instead of formatting windows 7 you can still use it.

[AlexBoy123HBG]

where can i get a windows xp cd

[Goomba141]

@AlexBoy123HBG

You can get one off of eBay, a computer store if they sell it, from Microsoft if you have Windows 7 Business or Ultimate (legit), or torrent one.

[achraf96]

@Goomba141 or download it

[mammita00]

@Goomba141 HI, i want to know where can i get the right drivers .. please help i need just this

[24kojiful]

@Goomba141 may i ask a question? if i downgrade my pc from windows 7 to XP, will my pc will be format automatically while installing windows xp or while downgrading? pls reply. thank you.

@AlexBoy123HBG

[reydsp]

can we do a backup from the drives in vista and when we install xp put them in the xp?

[MaciKz]

Hello , nice tutorial..I will instal Win xp for 2hours..But can i ask you?How do you do that mouse..When you click it will do some Red circle.. Thx.. ;)

[Goomba141]

@MaciKz

It is Camtasia Studio 6, and I had the recording options set to display a red circle when I click.

[denayndra]

hey i want ask something, if i downgrade my laptop, are i must buy microsoft office again?

[Goomba141]

@denayndra

I don't think so, give MS a call before you downgrade.

[narf03]

The title is wrong, it should be "How to install XP" it is clearly not downgrading. When u are installing XP from a blank harddisk, can u call it as "Upgrading" ?

[Goomba141]

@narf03

At the beginning you can see the VM was running Vista.

[PIKACHU49386]

Sorry for the tons of comments but... Why does the installer assume that my C drive is corrupted? I also get a different boot screen, it asks me to convert my partition to NTFS or just go on without changes... I tried BOTH options and it says that setup cannot go on because my C drive is corrupted. That's impossible because I'm currently typing this comment...

[Goomba141]

@PIKACHU49386

Maybe the installer is corrupt. I need more details please.

[PIKACHU49386]

Okay nevermind I can, and I want to start all over like a new computer so I won't back up anything :P

[PIKACHU49386]

I also have a question, can I install using a USB device? I don't have a disc drive on my netbook...

[PIKACHU49386]

I'm downgrading because XP is older and more compatible than Windows 7, and it will also help performance because 7 requires higher specs.

I'm also on a netbook and I've been an XP user for a LONG time and I personally would prefer it!

[thewindowsxp32]

um downgrading my moms hp with windows 7 :D

[Theunknownavenger100]

after that i get to windows setup is starting on that gray bar i get the blue screen of death

[laurencefrazer]

this is not downgrading, this is formatting the hard drive so every bit of data is deleted and installing a fresh copy of XP, downgrading is entirely different.

[hobot22]

need the mobo driver acer aspire 5515

to xp

[jojopogi100]

how do you creat another windows to downgrade?

where can i get win.xp disc?

[yafilmDOTcom]

Part 2/2: If your BIOS does not have the option to change SATA operations mode, and after trying to find the correct SATA drivers has failed on your end, you can still do something about the situation rather than being forced to keep on using Vista Crap or Windows Slowpoke 7. You can try Linux, give Ubuntu a try (ubuntu . com) and see, first using the "Live CD/DVD" mode (running linux before a real install) to test out Video/Audio/Wifi/Ethernet functionality, then if all well install for real.

[Goomba141]

@yafilmDOTcom I agree, If it doesn't work, use Ubuntu, it's a linux distro,and it is very reliable.

[yafilmDOTcom]

For those users complaining that they either get a Blue Screen of Death or the "No Hard Drive found" error during XP setup, do the following: 1) go to manufacturer's website and see if they have the SATA drivers for your model, if not, go to driverpacks . net and download XP drivers for "Mass Storage Controllers" and slip stream them all and try again. If that fails, then check to see if you can disable SATA operations on your BIOS (eg. enabling IDE or Compatibility or PATA mode/emulation, etc)

[yafilmDOTcom]

Ever since the problems with Windows Vista and how Microsoft changed Vista's name to Windows 7 later on to dump the name of Vista due to bad publicity, I have decided to keep on using Windows XP, while I dual boot to Linux too (Ubuntu . com) as my current phase plan since for me, Linux sounds like a better upgrade, on Linux you can forget about viruses, trojans, etc since its open source, any vulnerabilities founds are patched real quick by the Open Source Developing Community worldwide.

[cshabtai27]

when i do this, instead of getting a "welcome to setup" screen i get an error saying "windows needed to shut down your computer to prevent damage." i don't know what to do and i tried everything to downgrade to XP. please help! :(

[yafilmDOTcom]

@cshabtai27 That means that your Windows XP CD Setup program was unable to find the SATA drivers for your SATA controller which is attatched to your local hard drive. You will need to search for the correct SATA drivers for XP and slip stream them to your XP CD and burn a new CD. Good Pointer: go to driverpacks . net and download the Mass Storage Controller drivers for XP, slipstream all to your XP CD, burn a new XP CD, retry setup and most likely you will succeed this time.

HATE VISTA DESTROYED MY COMPUTER NEVER UPGRADE TO VISTA YOU WILL HATE IT

[vl2soiden]

I have a noob question:

What is the difference between installing and upgrading?

I have win7 and I want to make it to Win XP, is that downgrading or installing?

Thank you very much.

[kaiserqureshi]

@vl2soiden its called downgrading, if you go win xp to win vista or win 7 its called upgrading

[jc3fresh]

Thx :) what's the name of the song

[Goomba141]

@jc3fresh

The song is Violet Hill, by Coldplay :D

[ToNothingElse]

Hey very nice tutorial, it's like self-explanatory :D, I just installed Windows 7 Professional, but all the games I had on XP I can't play them now :( that's my reason for downgrading it to XP, but I don't have the XP disc, where I can get it or download it? I'll burn it into a DVD/CD and then use it...

[darkcrusade999]

does it matter what version of xp i use when i downgrade from windows 7 to xp?

@darkcrusade999

no
