I Need Help Installing XP Pro Corporate.

[jdpatel]

I need help on installing XP Pro Corporate I got from Torrentspy. I downloaded the torrent file and once I open it there is a lot of other folders that have software and on folder with the keygen. Also there is a Setup.exe file should I just open that and install it throuh that or should I burn the whole file and boot it and then install it. And how do I install it so that I don't loose the files that I have on my computer right now. I have Windows XP Home Edition SP2.

You don't want to do a clean install ? This is not recomened but you could do a upgrade install from windows . Thats if you really have a corp. version of win xp pro. That way you save your folders and settings . I would make a windows bootable cd for any trouble you have later. :)

Your right ,what I mean is "after" the cd is burnt put in the cd tray and pick upgrade install. :)

So I should just make and image and then just do a clean install instead of upgrading it?
How do I format my HD?

You'll loose all files and settings but a better way . With a clean install you boot from cdrom and your on your way. Just remember to back up drivers, pictures or e-mail addies that sort of thing. Its easy.

How do I back up the drivers and other stuff you mentioned? Should I just burn the stuff to a cd or something?

Yep to a cd . You can always get them of the net ,but can be a pain in the ass.

So Where do I find these drivers on my computer, and as far as I know I've only downloaded drivers for my WebCam and Graphics Card. So Should I just not worry about that?

if thats the case, those can be updated after theinstall. just make sure your not missing anything. carefuully check so you have what you need .

Only one I would worry about is the mobo lan or modem drivers . If you can't get on the net you'll have to use a friends computer to get your drivers.

Where can I find the drivers for the motherboard and lan on my system?
