i'll give you all my specs and why im tryin to reload the O/s
windows XP tablet PC edition. 40gb sata HD, has a sata-ide converter cable so it needs 3rd party drivers, already downloaded and saved to a floppy. 512Mb ram, 2 batteries, one is in the CD drive slot, 1.7Gh intel celeron M processor, intel wireless B built in wireless card. in the boot proccess it says Phoenix cME FirstBIOS Notebook Pro, i 4get if that stand for the BIOS version or just the motherboard.
i have a USB floppy drive and an exteral cd drive that plugs into the smart card reader.
and the BIOS has a password
now im trying to reload the o/s weather its tablet edition or not makes little difference. its 2nd hand and has a bunch of different limitations that were set by the last IT tech, it originally loged directly onto a generic account but i cracked the passwords and now i can get onto the administrator account. it has a bunch of stupid programs that were for the buisness it was from and a mcaffee that wont uninstall and i cant get an anti virus to run properly so i've gotten a couple trojans and at this point i'd rather just format the hard drive and reload XP
