that isnt writing.. its a new language someone made up.


Hrm, XP wont load? Legit copies do :p

Try upgrading to XP off the Me install, it should take.. if you still have problems with your drive get a partition program and get the extra space once XP is installed.

I know this is fairly obvious but have you gone into the BIOS and made sure that the cd/dvd-rom is enabled as a bootable device?

"Quick Louis, he's speaking in tongues. The power of christ compels you, the power of christ compels you, the power of christ compels you." - Peter Griffin, Family Guy.

But seriously, use proper english, it is difficult to understand what you want if you insist on using such terrible spelling.

However, having said that, i did run the phrase through a prototype decoder i happen to have, intended for decoding the phrases spoken by children in very early stages of development.

1. Yes, you need a bootable Windows XP disk. You can bittorrent these, or buy a legal version, though there isnt a lot of point, unless you are incredibly upset by the little star that might, occasionaly decide to show up on your taskbar.

2. Hard Disks tend to lose about 10% in the formatting, both my 320's show as 298gb's. THough I shouldnt say both, one started smoking todayy :(, lost all my videos and TV shows, about 170gb in total. But thats another story.

3. 6200's are acceptable for you know, like word and stuff. :p Definitly going to want to upgrade this soon, but for now it should get you by with some light gaming.

I see that you have 4gb of RAM 8O . Try enableing 4gb Re-mapping in the BIOS or remove a stick then install XP. XP is VERY TEMPERMENTAL with 4gb of RAM and may not want to install due to this.

Hope this helps.

P.S. SPEAK ENGLISH IT HELPS :)

I don't usually make a big deal out of things like this, but I had a headache after reading the first paragraph. The fact that I had to actively think in order to understand what you were trying to say was too much work when you're the one asking for help.

In short, wasn't worth my time to try and figure out wtf you were saying so I really can't help you with your problem, whatever it is. Just from seeing the other responses though, I'd say to go out and buy a legal copy of XP.

Just in case you didn't understand the proper english used in this post, maybe pyrix's decoder can work it backwards to gibberish for you.

Well maybe we can all learn from this ..........*snickerz*....... please note the use of the letter Z.The next time I should see the letter"Z" in substitution for the letter "S" in the title of a post I will take one of the following actions.
I shall "round-up the BoYz and dig out my old EZ-E tape
OR
consume mass quantities of high proof alcohol inorder to inhibit thinking so hard.

I actually think he may be on dope...

Perhaps he should get a good copy of XP to install XP. Then he should plug in all the drives to their proper places and boot from the disk. The option is in the bios. He should then put the disk into the drive and close it. Then he should restart the computer, and while its booting, right after it posts, he should frantically push every key he can for about 2-3 seconds.

Format it up, and he's ready to go....

Edit:
Forgot to mention, he should probably just throw the whole thing out and not use computers. Hey, instead of throwing it out, he could give the parts to me! I'd put them to good use :wink: .

Edit2:

Seems like he figured it out.
