What are the computer specifications when you look at System Information? What operating system is it running? Have you got the OS installation CD?

COMPAQ Armada E500
the computer is running XP professional ed. 2002 256MB mem. 2 GB HD 846 MHz Intel P. III wierd ... the system restore is enabled, but the computer says that it is "suspended" cause there is insufficient space in the Hard Drive hm ... i cant work my way around it, cause there is JUST enough space for the computer to run and THATS IT .... i could buy a bigger hard drive, but i am not really an installer type of person .. if i do that, then i can work however .... |

As a last resort with no installation disc, you could always buy a copy of xp pro for about $140 and reinstall it...

a 2GB HDD? Your serious.
Get a bigger hard drive and an OEM copy of XP Pro. It's pretty cheap on Newegg.
