Re: Installing XP back Yuri 7/4/2007 1:46:01 PM I ran the XP set-up CD. I deleted the partition. I formmatted the partition. and i installed XP in it. After all is done, it still says ERROR LOADING OPERATING SYSTEM. Why is that? How do i successfuly install XP? Bare in mind that my PC came with XP on it, then i installed Vista business, now i want to install XP again and it simply gives me that error message all the time. Bare also in mind that because i done the format i dont have any Operating System i can work on so unless i overcome that little problem, i believe everything you tell me to do have to be done off a CD/DVD or through command line. Hope to hear from you soon Peter Many Thanks, Yuri "peter" wrote: [Quoted Text] > redo the xp install this time format the HD during the install with XP > peter > "Yuri" <Yuri[ at ]discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message > news:436A2E89-24CC-4BF6-8C3B-06C90784F13B[ at ]microsoft.com... > >A few months back i installed Vista Business on my system, now I want to > > install XP back on my system.
