No, the problem was not with activation. By changing the configuration, I actually had 2 different product keys installed simultaneously. That...
I guess my fears came true. In copying and pasting the configuration, it also made it clear to Windows that the product key has changed, so it...
Is anyone aware of a startup disk for Windows ME that has USB support, for installing the program on an external hard drive?
Actually, the solution was what I was putting off doing. All I needed to do was to put in the XP CD and then delete the partitions. Everything...
OK, I've tried everything I can think of. I guess I have to come back for help again. Something happened to this drive. I don't know how, but...
I'll just format the drive and then partition it. I'll let you know the results.
I just reread what you said about imaging rather than cloning. I cloned the drive to her external hard drive. Do I need to image it also? Would...
I was thinking that all but the system profile could be copied and pasted, but then I realized that my system profile is 436kb while hers is...

She can't find her Lotus CD. Is there any way around this problem, or will she have to go out and purchase a new CD?

Does anyone have any idea if it is possible to return this XP operating system to the last known good configuration?
Another option I'm thinking of is that she has the CD for WinME. I could put that on instead of 98, as I'm not sure if I have 1st or 2nd edition....
If there isn't a fix for this, I'll have to install Win98 on this computer, as she needs to use the computer on Monday for work. Let me know your...
There are 4 different hal.dll (99kb, 100kb, 103kb and 124kb). It was originally 99kb, so that's what I replaced it with, though I also tried the...
When I attempted to start the computer, after copying all the files, using that drive on this computer, I get the message...
I'm not sure what you mean by root.
ntloader didn't show up in the search, but I found ntdetect.com in WINDOWS\ServicePackFiles\i386 and WINDOWS\$NtServicePackUninstall$.
