    #5313052 - 02/18/06 10:43 AM (17 years, 11 months ago)

Ok, I erased the old stuff, I got my comp going. My ISP no longer offers free anti virus it seems so do you have any suggestions?

I tried a search and overwhelmingly AVG Anti-virus was suggested, and described as free, yet here http://www.grisoft.com/doc/5/lng/us/tpl/tpl01 it costs money... Any ideas/suggestions?

Some of those keys wont work with other windows, if it is a OEM key...also, the hp may have some proprietary drivers for the motherboard.  Is there a second partition on the original harddrive?  If so this is where your backup is, you burn it to a disk, i dont remeber how, but this is how HP/Compaq does it now.

The extra hardware will not cause a problem during the install, and dont need to be removed.  You will need to install the driver for the video card, and prolly the modem too.

If you feel you have sufficient backups of everything, you are ready to wipe the disk, the install of windows should only take about 30 minutes, but getting all the drivers, programs, and other shit taken care of, much longer.

peace :rasta:

Well, I have reinstalled windows, but I have no LAN connection. My modem and ethernet cable is hooked up properly, yet under "Network Connections" I have no LAN icon (no icon at all).

I am thinking I need ethernet drivers? Under Device manager ---> Other Devices -->Ethernet controller is not working and has no driver. Is that the problem?

Yeah, I'm guessing you need to (if you don't have the info at hand) pop open the case and read the model # of the ethernet card so you can find the driver online
