I sure hope someone here can help me here.
The CD on my old laptop went bad and I bought a new one so I could reinstall
Win XP Service Pack 1. There was a restore option and since I was really,
really hoping I could get everything back I have tried it.
When it got to installing Windows it said Files Needed: The file 'asms' on
Windows XP Home Edition Service Pack 1 CD is needed. Type the path where the
file is located, and then click OK.
So looking at the CD on another computer I see that there is a folder I386
and under that is another folder ASMS. This is on a Reinstallation CD MS Win
XP Home Edition Including Service Pack 1.
So I type in D:\I386\ASMS and nothing happens. In the background "it keeps
changing messages about "stay connected with family and friends" and so on,
and the progress bar keeps flashing...but nothing.
Can someone PLEASE tell me what I should do so I can continue? I am afraid
to start all over again but will have to I guess if I don't hear something
soon.
Thank you
