Hi guys
Recently I reused the hard from a old computer for my new build which has windows xp 32bit OEM. When I booted the new computer the hard drive did not access windows. I did a bit of research online and tried to install a new copy of windows vista 32bit OEM on it. I have a copy of XP too but I don't have a product key to activate it.
On my first try it copied the windows files, expanded files and Installed features but after this a messedge came up saying: Windows installation encountered an unexpected error. Verify that the installation sources are accessible and restart the installation. Error code: 0Xc0000005
So I tried again and the same thing happened except a window came up saying the installation was cancelled. Any changes that were made to your computer during the installation process will not be saved. Windows could not set the offline local information. Error code 0x80000001.
I tried again for the finale time and the same happened except the blue screen of death came up.
I restarted the computer and it says Windows could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt. Windows root system 32 hall. dll .
I cannot boot from a CD now because the messedge does not go away . How do I get rid of this? What do I do to install vista? Or should I just install XP? Please can you help me on how I can resolve this problem. Thank you.
This is my first build my specs are:
1gb 1333ghz Crucial DDR3 memory
AMD x2 955 proccecor
M4A785TD-V EVO motherboard
160gb hard drive
Samsung SH-S223 DVD±RW optical drive
This is my first post so sorry if I have made any mistakes.
