Hey
So I was restoring my old computer as a HTPC. I wanted to clear everything out of the computer so I decided to reinstall Windows XP. I didn't have a CD, and starting the setup through winnt.exe didn't work. So I found myself a nice ISO to use on a USB stick. Everything went well untill just after partitioning. I deleted all my partitions and made a new C: and D:. When I confirmed the setup continued. Then, after like 2% this message popped up that I didn't have enough memory to perform the installation. I had to abort it, so I did.
After this the computer didn't want to boot, I would always get the message: 'Error while loading operating system'. I tried multiple times to boot it again from the USB but this message kept popping up (something like this): the setup can't find a previous version of Windows, please insert CD.
Well after that I was clueless. Now my PC doesn't even start the setup with a CD or a USB.
I have no idea how I can fix it. This is as far as my computer knowledge extends.
