Really? You have been trying to install win xp pro on a p3 - 733 machine
with an intel d815eea motherboardcpu?

Amusing that your claim above strengthens the case that you are a fool,
Howie, given that you can't remember your own questions even when they are
preserved in the text you're quoting.

Dicto simpliciter, Howie. Please try to avoid sweeping generalisations.

Converted conditional fallacy, Howie. "If A then B, therefore if B then A."

**** it off. Install linux. It's worse. You'll love XP after that.

No there's not.

Why do you make so many mistakes?

Classic illogical circular reasoning by someone who is a simpleton.

You are always making excuses.

Another unsubstantiated and erroneous claim.

Classic invective, as expected from someone who lacks a logical argument.

Why did you give up on trying another win xp cd?

Tell some **** that cares.

If you took your time, you wouldn't make so many errors.

You say it is the motherboard; I will say "you gaping, inadmissible, bawling
goggle-eye."

Get ****ed.

I too have install a great deal of updates too.

How many times have you tried to install service pack 2?

On what basis do you call that 'proof', Howie?

I too have ran two ram diagnostic utilities.

Fallacy of accent, Howie. Fallacy by shifting the meaning.

Irrelevant, given that I never said anything of the kind, Howie.

Utter fiction.

Still suffering from reading comprehension problems?

Have a spare? That's a joke right?

Classic hypocrisy, as evidenced by your being manipulative, Howie.

Classic unsubstantiated and erroneous claim, laced with invective, as
expected from someone who is meddling and controlling.

Advice on what?
