    Problem installing windows 10 on an xp machine


    I am trying to install windows 10 on a machine with xp using the file created from the download tool and stored on a usb flash drive. I set the boot sequence to use the usb first. When it runs, all I get is a blue windows icon in the middle of the screen. I never got a choice about actually installing Windows 10, or where to install it I have two internal hard drives. The process has been running for 36 hours. Don't know if anything is actually happening.

    Wasn't I supposed to get some dialog before it actually started to install?

    Any help would be appreciated.

    :)

    Problem installing windows 10 on an xp machine

    Workgroup Windows 10 and XP machines no longer see each other


    My 4 machine workgroup network, 2 XP and 2 Win 10 machines, was functioning fairly well until the recent "Creator" upgrade. Now the XP machines can no longer see the 10 machines and the 10 machines can't see the XP machines. The machines of the other OS are not listed. Would like to get the workgroup functional again. Have done multiple reboots and have run the suggested troubleshooters with no results. Have any ideas?
