You can perform a clean installation with the Win XP SP1a disk, but then you will need to also reinstall your applications and restore your data from back-up media. Have you tried contacting Dell Tech Support, or if in the U. Have all cds that came with system when bought. They will not work because my unit crashed last year and dell out of warranty dept.
That cd was a xp with sp3,so now old cds wont work because os in unit is newer than cds i have. And if request copys they will probably send same cds i already have. Any thing i could try sir? Tech said have four files missing so unit will not work till repaired with cd. The repair installation will correct problems with the Windows program files, but you must understand that a repair install makes minimal corrections to the Windows registry.
Your data and application files will be left untouched, but if the problems you are having originate in the registry, a repair install may not help. In order to obtain the Windows installation CD you need to contact Tech Support or use the form found at the link I gave you in my first post. They will not send you a disk having only Service Pack 1a as they no longer stock them.
The Dell reps are normally very helpful, but if you have problems getting a Windows CD with Service Pack 3, you can still use the disk having Service Pack 1a to perform a clean installation. I ran a Dimension for nearly eight years and restored it several times using the disks originally sent with the machine from Dell, plus a download of the Service Pack 3 update from Microsoft.
Trust me, your disks can still be used. Search icon An illustration of a magnifying glass. User icon An illustration of a person's head and chest. Sign up Log in.
