| | Windows Vista Beta2 I had installed Windows Vista beta 2 long ago in my desktop computer. I was away from home for more than a year. When I came and started my computer I can not load the windows and there is an error says your license expired error OxC00E003. Now I want to install my Windows XP which I have the original disc from the manufacturer. I insert the disc in dvd rom drive but it can't read. So How can I install windows XP. |

| | Re: Windows Vista Beta2 Provided you are booting from the cd, then either the DVD is faulty or the winxp cd is faulty If your PC has been unused for a year, try opening the case & reseating all connectors - ensure pwr is disconnected whilst doing this.

| | RE: Windows Vista Beta2 Go into Bios at startup, ans set your Boot Order to boot from your DVD/CD drive 1st. Have your XP CD in the Drive; reboot. Load XP files, delete existing vista Partition, formatt, install XP. With the above, it is all in the instructions as you use the XP disk to install; very easy for you!
