hi,this a common problem with rather old beast ,instead of roll back drivers ,try getting the latest video drivers from the makers website ,also try and get more ram for it as 512 is not alot.the make and model would have been good info to add to you post .

The fact that its a gift matters not ,as even Gifted computers fail ,pun intended

good to hear it helped

try activating the computer admin acct .right click on, [MY]Computer and click on manage ,turn on admin acct ,reboot and see if you can delete folder now ,also what folder is it

if you have everything backed up i would suggest running the recover and getting it back to factory isntall
you can use the zero key on bootup to get to the recovery

i suggest running malwarebytes

motherboard link ,it show the type of ram and if you click on the link for memory support it will show brands the board supports
Support for DDR2 1066(O.C.)/800/667 ,so it would be 800/600 unless you are into overclocking

it depends more on your motherboard than your cpu ,so what is the make and model # of the motherboard to help find the model give this a try

Lets find out what you have inside.

memtest86,download the windows iso and burn it to disk and boot computer to the disk it creates ,run the memtest for at least 5 or 6 hrs ,my opinion .
http://www.memtest86.com/

just click on the iso file and win7 should popup to burn it to a disk

or after 20 days you may already have it fixed,and don't give a rats ass about the people here wanting to help you .lol

happy reading

sure it will ,that was the the res of the laptop i had it on a few yrs ago

over the years i have used them all. have been using MSE for quite some time now with out any real infection ,using it in our house on 3 laptop ,and i do all the computer repair /building of family computer and put it on them also .it may not be the best ,but it works for us. it been said it going to be built into win8 when it comes out

question has been asked and answered a thousand time !
what the point ,the links in your signature perhaps !!

read the issues section here ,it maybe best to leave alone .

hi ,start with blue screen viewer ,it will/should show whats causing the bsod ,run it ,it will produce a log with the info in it ,you may poat it back here if you wish for us to look at.
the download =
http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/bluescreenview_setup.exe

info on how to use it if needed ,
http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/blue_screen_view.html

no expert ,but what are you planning on using the computer for after its built .
you did notice the board uses a Intel Xeon CPU right ,which if im right would make it a good video editing and Cad type workstation ,not a gaming cpu .unless it has become one ?
i have a older xeon based computer and its a Dell Workstation ,not a gamer

from Wikipedia =The Xeon is a brand of multiprocessing- or multi-socket-capable x86 microprocessors from Intel Corporation targeted at the non-consumer server, workstation and embedded system markets.

Well, in my opinion Win Xp is much better than Win 7, because it faster and more reliable than Win 7.

i know you a signature spammer ,but why cant you at least say something use full ,xp is not and i repeat NOT faster than win7.....period

It is intel, I have another older processor Im going to try. So you think it is the processor and not anything else?

no,not positive ,5or6 yr old computer it could be anything ,try it with just one stick of ram at a time

the pcu warms when computer is on

assuming you mean "cpu" its not wise to let a non-booting computer run till the processor gets hot .you may be just doing more harm ,it may already be too late ,no way of telling that i know of ,except changing the CPU

.
Currently are you using genuine WinXp sp3?
If not don't downgrade...check there are some good crack on net...you can download & install it.. than it will be ok..

it is not within the rules of Daniweb to discuses or suggest using cracked versions of any type software .ty

Are you with too many things?

yes thats it ,wonderful you solved it ,and ,maybe even world hunger

does it have a stock intel cpu fan like the one in the link ,and is clean of dust ,the way the fins are angled causes it to dust up fast ,did for me anyway ,if it not like the one in the link,make sure its dust free in any case
http://tinyurl.com/d6eepuq

if it not dirty ,maybe it needs to be removed and cpu/fan base cleaned and some new thermal paste applied ,

OP is a signature spammer

did you check to make sure the network card/device in the winxp machine had proper drivers installed

i just realized that nazam79's post is an exact copy of the first post from 2007 ,so we all know what that means .wast of time for us

I have tried many browsers and find the best by far is Mozilla Firefox. It has more features, good add-ons, and plug-ins. I don't like chrome because of how pages are loaded, some don't work, and it very often just shows a blank screen for me.

i like most browser ,what i don't like is signature link spammers

if you have a floppy drive you can download 4 flopper bootdisk set from this site ,its safe i have been using the site for years now ,good luck .with the setup disk you should be able to run the chkdsk i think
http://www.bootdisk.com/bootdisk.htm

hi,did you try safe mode .hitting f8 on bootup .
or if no go to same mode try the safe mode command prompt and type this in
"chkdsk /r" with out the "
if thats a no go ,do you have w2kpro disk you could boot to and use the recovery option and type in the chkdsk /r

hi,cant say i seen that one before either !
after reading it the first thing come to my mine was i would try resetting bios to defaults

like most thing when they break, if you want to be able to play dvdsw in you car then yeah you will need to buy a new one to do so .
did you try a disk cleaner ,it may be as simple as a dirty eye,they can be bought at your local car audio shop,and the shop may even do a cleaning for a small fee or even check out the drive for you .they will for sure be able to sell you a new one .

Although it was a good question ,OP is a signature link spammer and will likely not return to read all the great answers

hi,did you apply new thermal past on the cpu when replacing the heatsinc,

as to the reputation added for me ,Who's Bob .

lol

hi,did you apply new thermal past on the cpu when replacing the heatsinc,

Disable all unused services by going to run->msconfig->services .

in learning windows for me anyway it was always said to not use msconfig to disable services ,instead use services in ,control panel/admin tools .

hi,try the auto run repair tool from Microsoft .

2GB ram determines the speed of your computer, the more ram the faster the computer. Hope that helps:)

have to disagree with this ,that is the size of the ram ,nothing to do with the actual speed of the computer ,that would be the cpu, core 2 ,2.40mhz

yes, more ram will make the OS work quicker ,but that's not really the speed of the computer ,when we talk speed!

or even a gigabyte board like the one you are using now ,i always liked the gigabyte boards of yrs gone bye ,assume there still as good

edit ,just clicked on the link above after i posted above info ,and its all gigabytes ,assumed it was Asus ,

always makes me wonder why they don't just make one board that does it all ,instead of about 10 dozen different ones

did you see this info and file fix to try or manual fix .
http://kb.swiftkit.net/question-automation-error.html

im surprised win7 64 bit installed on a computer with only 2gig of ram ,i suggest at least 3gig and even better 4gig ,

you have a 1tb harddrive ,how do you have it partitioned ,how many ,how big is each partition ,maybe you could shrink one partition and then expand the one running windows

and if that doesn't work try this , info from another site.

the backup fails with the 0x80070002 error :

1) The built-in administrator account is disabled (it is disabled by default in Win7)

2) The Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service is enabled

*Possible solution (!!Use at your own risk!!):

--------------------I recommend doing both ---------------------------

1) Enable the built-in Administrator account (you can disable it again after backup), this can be done several ways. The two most common ways are:

From elevated cmd prompt type: net user administrator /active:yes

OR
Right-click Computer
select Manage
expand Local Users and Groups on the left by clicking the little arrow
select users
right-click Administrator and select properties
un-check 'account is disabled'
click Apply
click OK

2) Disable the Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service , this also can be done several ways. The two most common ways are:

msconfig
click the Start Menu
type msconfig in the "search programs and files" entry box (or from Run dialog box)
select the Services tab at the top of the window
un-check the Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service
click Apply
click OK (you may see some warnings or notifications, click OK)
restart the computer

OR
services.msc
click the Start Menu
type services.msc in the "search programs and files" entry box (or from Run dialog box)

time to run chkdsk on you harddrive, choose repair .recover bad sectors ,info found here .
