god dam it it didnt help
also every thing looked the same so idk if the it was turned off or not

Ok, you could try inserting the DVD & booting. Then press Shift+F10 when it's loaded, and run compmgmtlauncher from there, it will tell you if the driver was 100% installed or if it is just Standard VGA adaptor.

[bakerboy]

[Orbital Shark]

Do you not get the main installation screen when you boot from the DVD

 

[baarod]

OK, sounds like you're installing to a different drive or partition on the same computer where you're running XP. So, you should be able to bypass the installer completely using these directions:

The nice thing is that it's very fast to do

[Orbital Shark]

That's a new 1. Have you booted from XP CD or Windows 7 DVD?

 

[bakerboy]

i have booted from windows 7 disk
i worked out that the cd thinks it is on D:\ i worked this out by looking at the dir of all the drives when i try and launch the compmgmtlauncher it says it cant find it
"windows cannot find "X:\windows\system32\compmgmt.msc".

the file is def there as i do a dir of system32 and i can find it in the list

 

[Orbital Shark]

have you been able to navigate to x:\windows\system32?

x:\
cd\windows
cd system32

I'm gonna have to think about this 1

 

[bakerboy]

i have been able to nav to it
it is at
D:\Windows\system32

Wait a minute. So you got a screen? Why are you still trying?

 

[bakerboy]

and when i put in the install cd and boot from it i get the install options i thought that was what you were asking me

[Orbital Shark]

Is it the XP or Windows 7 CD?

 

[bakerboy]

it is the windows 7 cd

 

[Orbital Shark]

OK that's good. Can you access the X drive at all?

 

[bakerboy]
