Computer Issues
I HAS THEM.
Kk, has the windows XP profressional CD, tried to re-format because I managed to somehow make it so that my computer couldn't detect internet, at all. Or my router detect my computer. SO.
Reformated. Got system erros... BSODs... finally got it going, with like, four missing files. Copied the files from mom's laptop via usb, put them on mine. WOO.
Almost every file I download is "corrupted", just about every cd is "corrupted", and I get a shitload of random restarts, random applications closing, and random BSOD with physical memory dump.
I have no fucking clue what I did wrong.

Alternatively, stop living in the past and get Windows 7.
I love how you get CPU issues, when my desktop's graphics card and power supply dies.
...FOR ME TO POOP ON!!!1
Also, to solve your problem, you need to find the model numbers of your NIC to download your network drivers when you install XP. This way you'll have network/internet access and can grab the rest of your drivers from your box instead of via USB. Also, to allow for USB 2.0, you need at least XP SP2 or 3, so make sure you download and install those service packs first before doing anything else.
Windows 7 isnt even released yet.
Snow, is your XP CD Bitch-Scrached?
My computer says the fucking t2 GSI file from file front is corrupt, and that's where I have always downloaded from. >:C
And keen, in that case, I'll actually have to try Windows 7.
The release client I'm running is the best Windows experience I've had - install takes literally less than half the time of any other version, it boots faster, most drivers will already be installed when the OS is installed (probably need updates, but they'll be working), many more useful utilities and a more powerful control panel, more devices recognized, networking has been vastly improved, and the interface is nicer (imo). All of this is just this Release Client - not even the full proper release.
The only problems I've had at all are weird driver stuff with my mom's printer.
You can probably still find a cracked version of the RC. I wouldn't blame you for waiting, it would probably be a hassle. Don't go around calling it "Vista with service packs" though, it's not.
Never really understood people's beef with Vista in the first place...
