Does anyone know how to install an original Windows XP Home program over a
system that is using something that is not guniune. Please tell me how to do
this reinstall.--
Thanks For Your Help,

I am not sure exactly what you are asking, but if you have a Windows OS
already installed that is a previous version, you can simply place the CD in
the drive and upgrade. You should also be able to boot from the Windows XP CD.

Hope this has helped.

David,

Are you saying just put the correct windows xp disk in and it will replace
the non guniune product?

Well, you will have to go through the upgrade process or clean install,
either way this should work. I recommend doing research or getting with
someone that knows how this operation is performed if you are not familiar.

Thank You

go to http://www.michaelstevenstech.com/cleanxpinstall.html to do a clean
install.

Yes if you put a windows xp cd in and format your computer by deleting the
older partition it was on, and formatting. You will do a clean install with
the cd.
