Got a question for you...

Hello here is the homepage:

Windows 7 is not a supported system, but you can use the drivers from the vista system, but only the 32 bit.

Turn on or restart your computer and watch for a message during the post about a particular key, usually Del or F2, that you'll need to press to ...enter SETUP. Press this key as soon as you see the message.

After the post, BIOS will attempt to boot from the first device listed in the boot order.You need to change that, so the first boot device in the list is the dvd drive. If that device is not bootable, BIOS will attempt to boot from the second device listed, and so on.

Note: The boot order is a BIOS setting so it's OS independent. In other words, it doesn't matter if you have Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows XP, Linux, or any other PC operating system on your hard drive or other bootable device, these boot sequence change instructions will still apply.

Here is how you do this:

But ofcourse there could be a problem with the dvd drive or harddrive.

To install windows 7, you will need at least 1 gb ram or more, and a dual core cpu.

Best of luck

You can't do that, it just won't work. A hard drive with XP installed on it will be unrecognizable to a PC with vista already installed on it. You can either backup your XP drive by putting it into a compatible XP computer. Or you can buy on of these, which are handy. This let's you get the data to your new PC thru a USB connection.

Dell Dimension 4550 Drivers
From the above link you can download the required drivers. There are two drivers available for Broadcom and Intel. I suggested try the Intel Drivers (as your system may be having the Intel based Ethernet)
To PCI communication Controller (Modem) you have to install the Modem Drivers
Trt Eicon (recommended) Or broadcom conaxant etc

Hope it helps! Good Luck!

hi, you need to upgrade your windows xp to vista.. you buy windows vista operating system..

If you have the Windows XP Operating System CD with you all of you have to do is to make sure that the CD is set to 1st boot in your BIOS settings. Put your Windows XP CD in your optical drive and restart the computer. Watch the screen until you see the "Press any key to boot from cd.." if you see that press any key and it'll boot to the XP setup, wait for it to load and follow the instructions carefully.

Note: You cannot downgrade Vista to XP without doing a clean install, the instruction above is a clean install, meaning everything in your hard drive will be deleted.

No a system restore will erase all your information.

When the computer first starts up, try tapping over and over the F2 key, or the Delete key. This will bring up the setup screen. Once you get into the setup screen, find the place where it lists all the devices for booting up the computer. Make sure you select the CD ROM as the first boot device. Save the changes, put the recovery CD in the drive, and let the computer start up. Follow the instructions on the screen carefully, and you should have no problems from there. After the operating system is installed, you will have to install all the drivers for your system.

If you don't need any files currently on the computer, boot from your Windows XP disc, have it delete the current partition and then format the new partition, and install windows XP.
Note: this will delete anything you currently have on the computer at this time!

Select the “MS-DOS file system (FAT16)” option and give it a volume name e.g. "Kodak". The format will begin when you click the “Erase” button below. 8. Try to copy the files to the re-formatted internal memory of the frame. 1. Click on the "Macintosh HD" icon. 2. Click on "Applications". 3. Click on "Utilities". 4. Click on "Disk Utility". 5. "Kodak" drive should be in the list showing a white drive icon 6. Click that icon and select “Erase”. 7. Select the “MS-DOS file system (FAT16)” option and give it a volume name e.g. "Kodak".

Once you connected your frame onto your Macintosh, it will appear as a white drive icon on the desktop. You can copy pictures “drag and drop” from iPhoto to the frame. Just make sure that the pictures you will be copying are in JPEG or EXIF format.
