Thread: How to erase Linux minus cancelling Windows XP.

I'm using the Compaq laptop I bought this laptop and within nine months. First I was using Windows XP on my laptop after I've decided to install Linux on my laptop. After that I tried to install my laptop. However, during installation you receive an expected error and error in installation. After restarting the laptop since then my windows xp not working properly and I can not use it. I do not know what is wrong with my laptop please help me.

I read your problem and then search the internet about this type of problems. If you are unable to use Windows XP after trying to install Windows XP on your laptop, then I suggest you first install the Linux system back into working disk correctly. After that are supported by all data from Windows XP drive and reformat and reinstall Windows XP. I hope this trick will help you solve this problem. If you find any difficulty after that, please let me know.

I tried to find a solution to your problem and after trying so many things that have found a solution. In my opinion you should try to open the Windows XP from safe mode. If you are able to open the Windows XP from safe mode, then I suggest you to delete all temporary files from your Windows XP drive and delete all data on the drive that have tried to install Linux. After doing that restart the laptop. I hope that after making that tackle this problem again.

If you are facing this problem even after trying to run Windows XP from safe mode, then I think you should insert the CD in Windows XP bootable CD into your laptop and after trying to install Windows XP from the console recovery. After doing that you will be able to run Windows XP on your laptop properly. After that if you want to install Linux then install the Linux disk to work properly. This will solve your problem and not face any problem after that.

I read your solution and try to install Windows XP from the Recovery Console, but made no difference to me. After that I'm tired of opening the Windows XP from safe mode, but I can not open the Windows XP from safe mode. I'm very confused what to do with this problem. If anyone has any idea about this, so please help me I can solve this problem. Please respond ASAP.
