Hi everybody, I am new to the site and struggling on how to fix this computer.
First thing first, i do not know that much stuff on computers so bear with me.
My brother left me his computer 4 years ago and now i am trying to revive it.
Now when i start the computer it tells me that it cant start window because some of its
component was deleted or its corrupted so I need to re-install xp.
Now i am trying to re-install xp, trying to delete all the context thats in the computer as well.
I boot from cd, press enter to start installation, press F8 to agree, then press enter again to install
then I get the blue screen of death. Saying:
A problem has been detected and Windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer.
If this is the first time you've seen this Stop error screen, restart your computer. If this screen appears again, follow these steps:
Check to be sure you have adequate disk space. If a driver is identified in the Stop message, disable the driver or check
with the manufacturer for driver updates. Try changing video adapters.
Check with your hardware vendor for any BIOS update. Disable BIOS memory options such as caching or shadowing. If you need to use Safe Mode to remove or disable components, restart your computer, press F8 to select Advanced Startup Options,, and then select Safe Mode.

Same blue screen of death pops up when i try to delete partition then it says:
Setup is unable to perform the requested operation on the selected partition. This partition contains temporary Setup files that are required to complete the installation.
When I press ENTER is goes to the same blue screen
Any help will be appreciated. Thank you.
