Donsammi: plz . i nid a genuin answer ..i wanted to install windows xp on preinstalled windows 7 ultimate so that i can dual boot it winxp and win7 ..havinq watch some guides on youtube .and downloaded the necessary app EASYBCD 2.2 .created some partitions of 20gb .. wen i wanted to install winxp wit cd. it will load all windows xp files but wen it shows setup is loadinq bottom part .. Bluescreen of blue will come up .. sayinq windows error that windowx will be restarted .. plz deji,onegig and all i have hp pavilion g6 3gb icore3 320hdd brightk: Given brighttk advice pls consider the following Make sure u know what u r doing before dual booting xp and Windows together. I dislike offering tutorial on something like this. its so complex and u need to mk sure u know what u r doing. If u check prev msg today I advised someone to boot to bios by using f10 or f2 and play around the bios until u see native mode, compatibility mode, change it from ACHI to legacy or compatibility mode In a nutshell achi orsata mode is fvista and windows 7 when installing xp u either change it to the second on the list or disable it and when u want to boot windows 7 u need to go to bios and reverser it.

Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by brightk(m): 6:57pm On Aug 13, 2013 |
deji2009: i de quick de 4get tins dese days oo.hmmmm not all laptops have this option to change the sata mode from achi 2 ide or compatible mode.. pls play around with the options in ur bios 2 find out.. morealso there might be some hitches cos by default the file system of xp will overwrite dat of ur windows 7 boot loader... although there are fixes for this but i havent tried any of them.. the last time i did a dual boot. the win7 didnt boot up only xp.. there was no time 2 fix the bootloader since it was urgent.. so we had 2 install xp first and den reinstall win7.. abeg nor try experiment except u want to t end up crashing ur live system.. if u have enough ram in ur pc say at least 4gb just get vmware workstation and u can run xp side by side with ur window 7.. but if u have above 4gb ram...den u can actually use vmware 2 actually experiment dual booting win7 n xp all inside the vmware...at least u go learn |

Wit a clean system naija nor go kill me with laf.. u de burn cd nepa take light u come hibernate lolololololol... me i nor know abt dat one oooo...let me ask u now did u see my previous post.. dual booting winxp and win7 is some how tricky. win7 vs winxp is tricky cos if u ve win7 installed n u intend 2 install winxp hmmm winxp will try 2 overwrite the boot loader.. at the end of the day u will find only xp booting n u nor seein an option for win7..although there is a fix 4 it but i havent played with it cos d last time it happened, d owner of the pc was in a hurry.. and i just wiped d hdd installed xp first den win7 later. unless u want 2 play around n mess up ur pc den u can go ahead n install xp with win7 installed first den u can look for the fix 2 correct d bootloader. i 4 look out 4 a way 4 u but i nor get d hardware 2 experiment 4 now....or maybe u can do a clean wipe of the hdd install xp first and den win7.. but my best bet is jst 2 run winxp along side win7 in vmware..i.e if u ve at leat 4gb ram or even 3gb.. |
