Problem with reinstalling Windows XP? Windows XP reinstalled after the virus crash (clean install, HD partitioned, reformatted). XP Media installed on the D drive. C drive – empty, formatted as FAT32. D drive formatted as NTFS. Install prompt asked for the SP2 files but it couldn’t retrieve them from the CD -installed afterwards through the windows GUI. Computer booted to Windows with the delay but recognized boot from the disk. Windows seemed to behave normally. Problem occurred when installing drivers. Windows showed prompt “Windows installer missing”. No such file was found on the system. Also some of other files couldn’t be found, like Windows Help files...All was done without the computer being connected to the internet. Install was performed twice with the same problematic result. Computer is new (Intel CPU, a lot of memory, HD space and power). XP install disks are genuine. Is the problem connected to windows being installed on the D drive? Thank you for any help/suggestions in this matter. |
