My computer will not boot up windows xp. I was having problems with a few days before. It was turning off randomly. I tried to reinstall windows and the problem did not stop. Now i cant load up windows anymore. All i get is the logo that appears when i boot my computer up the the screen goes black. I have tried a live cd of linux and it works fine. What do I do to fix this.
I dont have an xp cd but a restore cd

I installed this program called wicd. Horrible mistake!! It wouldn’t work with my wifi. And now I can’t install network manager, because I can’t connect to the internet because wicd won’t work (nor will removing it). Wired won’t work either. i’ve googled wicd, but every webpage on the net seems to be singing its praise, which means i can’t find how to solve my proglem. Yes, i will remove the stupid program. But tell me, how do I get network manager up and running again?
I am NOT reinstalling my system.
please, i just want my wifi back!!!
p.s. the live CD will connect to the internet, which is how I’m asking this question right now. can i manipulate it to download the package to my linux home directory? (i have 7.10 gusty gibbon installed over my whole hard drive)

I cannot boot into Windows, so I was just going to reformat and reinstall, but I can boot into Knoppix (Linux) from a live CD, so is there any kind of application or method I can use to retreive the product key to reinstall Windows?

I current have Windows XP and am runing Linux Ubuntu from a live cd, how do i get a boot menu to select an OS on startup. I do not want to reinstall.
I want to install UBUNTU on my computer without messing up windows.
I have both Windows 7 Ultimate and OpenSuse 11.2 in my PC. I recently reinstalled my Windows 7 and now I can’t boot into Linux. I’m also having OpenSuse 11.2 Live CD. I tried to recover linux that way but, I got options only to reinstall linux or start live CD. Please help me out guys…
