    Too many registry entry

    in Windows XP

    Posted

    Hi there. I think I was infected with a virus...I tried to reinstall my windows xp SP2 (repair). During installation it promted that ......inf ( if forgot which filename was that) cannot be located on the disc so I tried to browse it manualy and it was on the cd but everytime I click the retry button, it doesn't work...anyways it prompted gor 2 or 3 files more but to make the story short I finished my reinstallation. After that, it installs the windows xp...when i try to open files it works ok...but when I try to access windows/system files it becomes very slow such as display settings, add remove programs and the like.. i tried cleaning my registry and it comes to 12 million and still didn't stop scanning...i think i have a lot of registry entry...what should I do...

    Posted · Edited by Dee dee's lab

    :thumbup usually xp will do in your laptop...if it runs on win 98 it will also run in win xp...but you need al least 64mb ram..xp is a bootable disk...so just put you xp cd and restart your computer. xp will start installing and overwriting you old OS...

    and pls give the specs of your laptop...

    Who said anything about running "setup.exe", in DOS mode you need to run "d:\i386\winnt.exe". Also, 64Mb is the minimum RAM required for XP, and I think the installation WILL fail anyway!  :w00t:

    i have used nlite to disable the memory checking. I also have one desktop with 32mb on it and i have installed xp os the other day. it is running smoothly and ok.

    no it is not broke. I think this is the problem. I'm using a pcmcia card, i'm not directly connected to my laptop. I think when the installation reboot, he cannot recognize my cd rom anymore. same thing happened to me when i installed windows 98se before. i reformatted my disk and my cd-rom is not receognize so i have to get the mscdex.exe file before i can use my computer. but installing xp is different from 98 'coz xp cannot be run setup.exe in dos mode. what shall i do?
