I know that my driver is missing,but I need to download and install it.Driver Genius only detects missing drives.Besides Driver Genius needs Internet,and I have no Internet.
Driver Genius detects both missing and outdated drivers.
Just run it without an internet connection, it will you at least the name of your missing driver.
Search for that on Google, or post it here.
Good luck.

Make sure that your CD/DVD ROM is your first boot device in the bios settings.
cd/dvd first boot device
Good luck.

Hey Maher,
I have already downloaded windows xp sp3 integrated june version. When I try to install, it is asking for a serial key, which is not included in the downloads. Can you help me with that?

Greetings there again maher ! :)

My problem was simple , when i installed windows XP i always had a blue screen of death when it was done loading the drivers and starting to load windows.

However , you told me that it could be a hardware problem , so i explored my BIOS settings a little bit , and changed the main booting device , and the primary HDD to select the booting software out etc etc , long story short  : i messed a bit around with the bios settings.

When it installed windows XP it worked like a charm , no blue screens , no file errors , not a single one ! :D
The pc is fully active now , it boots up in just under 25 seconds now , fully loaded etc etc .

From the deepest part of my heart , i thank you , Maher ! :)
You have been very , very helpfull !

That means you didn't burn the CD correctly.
How did you burn it? Which program you use?
