My eMachines T4150 came with Windows XP Home pre-installed. My attempt to upgrade
to XP Pro hangs in the Installing Windows phase at "39 minutes remaining" while
the installing device bar is open.
I see a blue or black full screen full of error info just before it reboots. It
flashes by so fast I cannot read any of the text. The system reboots over and
over and I can't complete the install nor go back to XP Home - every boot says
"resuming install".
The XP Pro splash screen shows when booting. I've tried booting from the install
CD, repair, abort the install, and lots of other things.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
