well well, I fought with this code purple for four days found a windows xp home addision that I copyed from my moms compuiter( A dell not an hp) loaded it into my puiter and presto magic it works. I had to call micro soft to addivact my windows number I told em that the xp installed was from a dell not mine, I gave her the number from moms xp then she ask what my number for the xp that came preloaded on mine she gave me a new number and all is good. (I HOPE) jsut my part, good luck on the code! by the way were can I get a cd for the tattooing of my mother board?
