I'd try:

1. Opening the case again and double-checking that all cards/cables/etc. are properly and firmly inserted.

2. Updating the drivers for the network card(s); because of the reinstall,...

You've got to be kidding... that bit of techno-voodoo actually worked??!! http://www.stevewolfonline.com/Downloads/DMR/Visuals/Smilies/eek3.gif

I've heard of people resolving this exact issue by changing such seemingly unrelated BIOS settings as the AGP Aperture, or simply trying the reinstallation again and again until it worked. I'm not...

That would be it, unless you have an add-in PCI Ethernet card or a wireless networking card. If so, remove those as well.

No, only disable Firewire (IEEE 1394) devices; you should leave USB...

Having a Windows installation stall at 32 minutes left, while "installing network" is not totally uncommon. You can:

1. Disable any on-motherboard network and firewire adapters via the BIOS setup....

Thanks for posting that info, goldeagle2005. You're right- that method does do the trick.

Glad we help, joe_blow; feel free to ask if you have further questions/problems with the upgrades.

1) Installing RAM and a CD drive to an existing system isn't a substantial enough change to trigger a reactivation.

2) A reformat will obviously require reactivation; the process is very...

Yeah, that's their "idle" position; sometimes they need a little nudge to get them up and moving.

Ooooo....kay. Probably don't want to know anyway.... :mrgreen:

Do you mean the assembly that the laser travels on got stuck; that it wasn't sliding in and out on its rails? Just curious.

I'm confused. I just got an email notification which indicated that you had posted the following:I don't see that post reflected here, though. Any idea what gives?

2. I know it sounds obvious, but make sure that the "Use printer offline" option in...

One way to further pinpoint the fault would be to remove the original hard drive and install another hard drive (which you know to be good) as the Primary Master drive and see if the XP install CD...

Do you know the extension of the deleted file's name? It would definitely help to know if the file was an .exe, .com, .lnk (shortcut), etc. file.
