Sorry for posting in the wrong forum. What I have is a HP computer with XP Home that boots to a blue stop screen. I don't have the original disc for it. I do have a disc with XP Home service pack 2 but it is for a dell. I don't really need to keep it preactivated. I would like to keep it as simple as possible. If I could just get a clean copy of Windows to do a fresh install on the system then do updates and download needed drivers from HP I would be happy.

I searched around here and Google but most of what I found seems to be beyond what I need to do. I came across the mention of Nlite to make a clean XP disc. What I need to know is if I can strip a clean XP Home installation from a Dell oem cd. I have a HP machine that the operating system seems to be screwed up on. It has a blue screen. I have no disc for the HP. I have a valid code to use if I can come up with a clean install and I think I can download the drivers I will need from HP. So Will Nlite work for me or must I find another option. Thanks for any info.
