Bought XP Home yesterday to upgrade from Millenium. Put in
disc and get a reading 1) ERROR Setup is linked to missing
export KERNEL32.DLL:FreeEnvironmdntStringsA. also 2) Setup
has caused error in SETUP.EXE will now close, and finally
3) Windows cannot access the device,path or file. You may
not have appropriate permission to access this item.

I bought this computer from Staples about 3 yrs ago.
Sound has never worked, but when you take it back to
Staples they make you take it to RadioShack, who sends it
off for a couple of weeks. I just don't need the sound so
I don't worry about that. But I want the Windows XP, as I
am giving it to a college student to help her. I called
Micresoft twice and have been put on hold for over an hour
twice. They are no help if they won't talk.
 
Chances are that your computer cannot handle XP if you bought it three years
ago. But if you want further advice, try posting to an XP group. This
group is about neither Windows Me nor XP.
