    trying to reinstall xp having used ubuntu
    « on: January 25, 2010, 05:53:37 AM »
    Hi
    I'm trying to install windows xp on my old shuttle x pc.  I can get so far with loading and then get an error message "The file dac2w2k.sys is corrupted press any key"
    Anyone any ideas on how to solve this? I've tried googling the error but it seems to be a problem associated with new hardware which i don't have. 
    Any help or thoughts would be most appreciated.

      There's a couple of suggestions here while you wait to see if someone has a more definitive answer:

        Sorry, I thought this was a better place to open the topic.  I'm not sure how to close it
