    Same Windows XP install works on one computer but not on another identical one


    Windows XP SP3HP Comnpaq 8000 Elite SFF PCIntel Core2 Duo E8400 @ 3.00GHzRAM Channel A XMM1 2048 MBRAM Channel B XMM3 2048 MBSystem BIOS 786G7 v01.02ME Firmware Version 5.2.1.1001WD10EZEX 1TB hard driveInstallation works fine in PC1. Identical PC2 gets to mup.sys then reboots. If I take the drive and clone it, the clone works in PC1 but not PC2. I even tried swapping the RAM, to no effect. I tried the installation on a third PC, and it doesn't work either. However, PC2 happily loads a fresh installation of XP. Unfortunately, I can't get a repair install to run on PC2.In case you're wondering,

    :)

    Dell XPS 13 9333 - Windows couldnt not complete the installation, to install windows on this computer, please restart the installation

    According to Dell's official Windows 10 Creators Update page, the Dell xps 13 9333 is not listed as tested:

    You can try a manual upgraded as suggested in my previous reply using the ISO in addition to the 12 steps before upgrading.

    Windows 7 to Pack Virtual Windows XP

    ah! lol. I selected xp from a list and thought that was all that was needed, turns out its just suggesting settings based on the selection. I'll just read up on this. I'm rushing into it without much thought here.

    ya I'm an idiot dude. I thought this would be like the windows mobile emulator in visual studio where everything is loaded already for you. I dont exactly have an xp disc laying around here at work lol.

    I'll just have to play with it when I get home.
