[QUOTE]Originally posted by PsyLiam: [QB] Are you sure it was Windows Explorer saying that message, and not some other piece of software (like a registry cleaner)? And what do you mean by "you inserted the original Windows CD and it copied stuff"? Did you actually do a repair installation, like this: Boot the computer using the XP CD. When you see the "Welcome To Setup" screen, you will see the options below This portion of the Setup program prepares Microsoft Windows XP to run on your computer: To setup Windows XP now, press ENTER. To repair a Windows XP installation using Recovery Console, press R. To quit Setup without installing Windows XP, press F3. Press Enter to start the Windows Setup. Do not choose "To repair a Windows XP installation using the Recovery Console, press R", (you DO NOT want to load Recovery Console). I repeat, do not choose "To repair a Windows XP installation using the Recovery Console, press R". Accept the License Agreement and Windows will search for existing Windows installations. Select the XP installation you want to repair from the list and press R to start the repair. Setup will copy the necessary files to the hard drive and reboot. Do not press any key to boot from CD when the message appears. Setup will continue as if it were doing a clean install, but your applications and settings will remain intact. You could also do worse than checking the temperature of your machine. Although as Spring will have only just started down there that's unlikely to be a problem. Once you've done that try using Explorer again. And if the message comes up take a screenshot and post it here. [/QB][/QUOTE]
