Well im currently using A Linux and have a Windows XP home SP1 CD at home. Therefore, i want to come back to windows XP,

I tried to install it. But after the Setup files are loaded, i get a blue screen telling ecactly the same as this one:

8d1231678679-windows-7-wimfsf-sys-install-error-bsod.png

Note: the PAGE- .... is not there at my error message, and the wimfsf isnt there.

But the blue text is the same.

I dont have the chance to format anything because it isn't getting that far.

I have installed it on Sun Virtualbox and there it works, the problem is, it

isnt giving enough Graphic to be used as main OS. 126MB is max or anything like that.

My graphic card has 1GB

I would really like to use Windows again. It is a original Install CD and i have the CD key right here.

Could someone help me with this?

Thank you all :)

Well after i removed and inserted the Hardware, the error wasn't gone. Maybe my PC Hardware is too good for Windows Xp SP1? I somewhere read, that XP SP2 has been installed with the same problem, and it worked.

My last hope was a higher OS than XP. I tried it with the Vista CD of my bros PC and it worked problemless. But the problem now was, i dont got a second Product Key.

In my school, i got a key, so i can get MS software for free. So i got Windows 7 and i just bought the Produkt Key off Microsoft.

Why do i got a key?

Im Pupil of a Job oriented school, and i have chosen the IT way. Its about Programming and Databases etc.

Now i have Windows 7 and im back to Windows again. I will probably never install Linux again. Wine is not able to compete with Windows :)

Thank you for your help.
