Hi Ally,
On reinstalling Windows XP Home Edition on the Hard Drive, you boot the
Windows XP Home Edition Upgrade CD to boot the computer. I am assuming that
you boot the reinstallation CD for XP Media Center Edition 2005, also.
Procedure to Reinstall Windows XP! ( From a Windows XP Home Edition
Upgrade CD, viewpoint)
If you want to save any files, make a backup of those files off the Hard
Drive and proceed.
00. - Turn off the printer.
01. - Go into Computer Bios and Set Defaults and Exit, if you know how.
Make sure the Boot Order is set to Boot to CD-Rom Drive First.
02. - Insert Windows XP CD into CD-Rom Drive.
03. - Reboot the computer.
04. - Press any key to begin to boot from the Windows XP CD.
05. - Welcome to Setup.
06. - Reinstall XP - Press Enter
07. - F8 - I Agree
08. - Esc: Don't Repair
09. - Select Windows XP Highlighted Partition to repair Windows XP on.
10. - Press Enter.
11. - Follow on screen prompts to allow the Deletion and reinstallation of
the Windows XP System Files.
12. - Then Copies files to partition.
13. - Now it Reboots to Windows XP. Don't press a key to boot to CD.
14. - And now it installs Windows XP.
15. - You need to be here now.
16. - Starts at 39 Minutes to Complete.
17. - At 33 minutes, you need to set Time and Time Zone, if need to.
18. - And Enter The Product Key.
19. - At 29 minutes, you need to pick the Network, if needed to.
20. - Now wait for Reboot and you are done.
21. - Go online and go to Windows Update and download and reinstall all the
patches.
Note: - If you have the original Windows XP CD, not Service Pack 2 CD, you
will need to have already downloaded to Your Briefcase Folder,
WindowsXP-KB835935-SP2-ENU from this link:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=049c9dbe-3b8e-4f30-8245-9e368d3cdb5a&DisplayLang=en
You must install Windows XP Service Pack 2 before you can use Windows
Update. Also you must install the tool to validate your copy of Windows
after upgrading to Windows XP Service Pack 2, before you can begin to
reinstall all the Windows XP Patches.

I have what seems to be an OS failure with my Ispiron 6000 and after
various
attempts to solve the poblem with the PC manufacturer (diagnostic test, PC
restore, etc) they have sent me the reinstallation CDs for XP Media Centre
Edition 2005. The latest problem is that I can't get past a screen showing
'Loading PBR 2...done' which I have mentioned to the technician. I was
told
to reinstall Windows XP with the CD but instead of getting the Licensing
Agreement I get the message 'File \i386\ntkrnlmp.exe could not be loaded.
The
error code is 7 Setup cannot continue. Press any key to exit'. Dell
technical
support isn't available until 28/08/2006 so can anybody tell me what this
latest error is and how to fix it so I can reinstall my OS and everything
else?
Thanks
Ally
