Welcome to the CH forums.
IN THE "C" DRIVE IT HAS C/WINNT NOT A FILE CALLED "C/WINDOWS"
That's exactly how it should be...
I CAN'T PLAY ANY VIDEO FILES FROM DISK.
You sure you're not trying to play a dvd disk on a cd player?
I CAN NOT DOWNLOAD ANY NEWER MEDIA PLAYER FROM THE WEB
Which media player do you currently use and which one do you want to download?
I CAN NOT EVEN LOAD A DIFFERENT OPERATING SYSTEM LIKE "XP"
Operating systems are 'installed' not loaded. Do you want to upgrade to a version of XP, if so do you have an unused upgrade cd or a genuine, unused full version cd complete with COA?
Please post back with details of your laptop and any error messages which are displayed.
It is considered very bad forum etiquette to post in capitals, and gives us all a headache.
Please turn off the Capslock.
