Thread: windows XP not reinstalled

I have XP is on my net book installed and I want to delete it / and reinstall it The question is how do I proceed carefully. Whether I start the computer when the CD is already in it or if I first start the computer and then insert the CD - I'm always in the installation mode

Soon my existing partitions are displayed, which I will basically overwrite. It appears that there is an existing partition. Do I want it with "L" Delete, I get a message that would not go because there would be a temporary installation files that are required to complete the installation (how can that be?). I choose from the existing partition that is the message that would also not go, because the partition was too full. another partition or another are not being offered to me. Please help.

So if you start off from a CD as you write, as only the drivers are loaded? I think not, because you immediately get into the installation menu. You must boot from the disc, shortly after starting with an inserted, CD select F12, F11 or other option, depending on the BIOS VG. This would solve your problem.

Thank you.

Have in the BIOS boot order changed. Now it loads right from the CD and the error no longer exists.
