I don't see much hope of retrieving your original setup at this point beyond
running your system's recovery which will likely wipe the partition,
removing all of your information which at this point is probably gone
anyway.
I really don't know what caused the original error beyond something that was
installed on your system that might have been causing some compatibility
issue, especially if there were any HP proprietary software installed.
That would indicate the best approach might be a clean install. The XP Pro
CD is a retail version isn't it? Also, it's not an OEM disk from another
system is it?
If it's a full version of XP and not an upgrade version, you can try a clean
install without going back to your old setup but understand as I said above,
you will lose everything that was on the hard drive which at by now may be a
moot point.
You need to be
sure your system is set to boot from the CD. Place the XP CD in the drive,
boot the system, if you see a message, in order to boot from CD press any
key, it is setup and you can proceed. If not, you'll need to go into your
system's BIOS and set the CD-ROM drive as first in line in the boot
sequence. When you boot the system there is usually a message telling you
to hit a specific key if you wish to enter setup, do so and navigate to the
location of the boot sequence. I can't give you specifics about where it is
but you can navigate around and find it. Then place the CD-ROM drive first
in line.
Boot with the XP CD in the drive. When you see the message on the boot
screen to "Press any key in order to boot from the CD," do so.
After loading drivers and files, you should be taken to a screen with the
following:
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.
In your case, press ENTER.
Agree to the License agreement by pressing F8.
You will then be taken to a screen with two options.
To repair the selected Windows XP installation press R.
To continue installing a fresh copy of Windows XP without repairing, press
ESC.
In your case, press ESC. This will bring you to a partition map where you
can delete, create and format partitions.
Select the drive you wish to format, delete the partition, then create a new
partition, format as desired and continue with XP installation.
