Hello all,
I have a Toshiba LT with Win XP Home on it. I can't find its install disk. I do however have Win XP Pro disk available.
So, I try to boot to hard drive and get the above error.
WHen I boot to CD (XP Pro), I do not press F6 (for 3rd party drivers), I do not press F2 for ASR, so it proceeds to start windows. It copies a bunch of files, under the screen Windows Setup, and then on the bottom it says "Setup is starting Windows". But nothing happens at all after that. It just sits.
What can I do? All help is very much appreciated. fw_man
