Installing XP - Stuck in a Loop
I've been helping a friend whose installation of Win ME became corrupted. We decided to format the drive and install a fresh copy of XP.
installed XP on a freshly formatted drive but somehow some essential files didn't copy over correctly. I get to the preparation stage, I get an error, the computer re-starts and I go back through the process again.
I managed to get to get into DOS by digging out an old Win ME start up disk and when I type in Format C: it says that I won't run.
What I'd like to do is format the c drive and start again, but I can't. Any ideas?
