hmmm..... when i repairing the windows the following warning pop out.

error code = 0x8007007f not found ..... system32\catsrv.dll
error system32\inetcomm.dll
error commonfiles\system\wab32.dll
error outlook express\msoe.dll

but when i do chkdsk and sfc/scannow no problem show up. So are this the cause of the unablitly of installing SP2 ?

Sounds like a copy of an XP CD to me...

Not to cast aspersions though.

You need to downlaod the SP2 file from Microsoft. Burn it to a CD and install it and your spyware and virus protection and THEN connect the cable to the internet. Not before.

No, not unless you choose to.

A good format and reinstall solves most Windows problems....for a while.

Boot with your legal XP CD and follow the install instructions onscreen. The format is done during this procedure. Once Windows is installed then you should be able to read your other drive(s). If you have followed this procedure then post back with any issues. If you have not followed this procedure, what have you done?

Is this a SATA or an IDE drive?

When instructed press F6 and insert the motherboard CD to load the SATA drivers. Without that Windows cannot load properly onto the drive.

What is the computer or motherboard make/model?
