real one its fine now got it working it was cos i had 2 xp on 2 different drives . keep on getting a mini dump blue screen every 20 mins or so now and it restarts . anyone no why
Is this disk a full install disk or an upgrade disk? (2 xp on 2 different drives ) If this is the case, Then it is not a fresh install..
no that was the first problem id put 2 xps on the tried to upgrade to vista on one of them and it threw a wobbler but its ok now.
