Flashman at the Keyboard

Oh My

Anyone gone to Windows 8 that wants to sell their Win 7 disks?  I finally got this new disk to load XP, but after saying "Starting Windows" I got a "Widows is shutting down to stop damage to your computer."  I have to figure that this because XP disk was a 32 bit deal and my computer is 64 bit?

    I haven't seen that message and don't plan to move to Win8, but I know it isn't a 32 vs 64 bit. Both architectures co-exist on 64 bit systems (that's why you have two 'Program Files' and two 'System' folders.
    There's probably a specific error code given; google that.

    Did you format the drive to remove all viruses? Did you execute 'fdisk /mbr' to rewrite the main boot record to remove any root kit viruses? I suspect you didn't...
