I tried to reinstall windows xp to repair some damaged
files and hit a major roadblock. When the installation is
about 3/4 of the way done it stops and a window pops up
which says, "the file igfxext.exe on Intel Extreme
Graphics Windows 2000/xp Installation Disk is needed."
I rebooted various times and it continues to do this. I
tried to get rid of the installation process but every
time I try to get back to windows, the installation
process keeps on trying to install windows again.

How do I stop this LOOP!!!! Help!!!!!
 
Hi,

When it prompts for the intel graphic windows cd, insert the cd that you got
with ur mother board. this contains the drivers for the graphic card that is
a part of the mother board. If u insert this cd, then the installation will
complete the repair process.

If you don't feel like putting the cd in, just hit cancel enough times and
the install will go through.
Odds are, if you pop the cd in, you'll have to browse for the file, and if
you find it, you'll have to do the same for the next file, and the next
frile, and the next file, and so on until you are 300 years old. ;-)
I'd just cancel it, and reinstall the drivers later on.
Hope this helps!
Cheers!
AJ
