I'm sorry. That post makes absolutely no sense. Am I reading your post correctly? Are you trying to put Windows XP on a Commodore 64 computer?? :?: :roll:

:roll: Okay, unless you know something that so many other people do not, you cannot install Windows XP on a Commodore 64 computer.

Click on this link to see the bare minimum specifications for Windows XP.

I am not sure as to what part of "you cannot install Windows XP on a Commodore 64" you don't understand. The minimum system requirements for Windows XP calls for a CD or DVD drive. Does a Commodore 64 come with a CD or DVD drive?

There are emulators for XP that will allow you to run your system as if you have a Commodore 64 but you cannot do it the other way around.

Here are the specifications for a Commodore 64. As you can see, your computer is in no way capable of running XP.

For a comparison, again, here are the specifications for Windows XP.

I didn't change your post. I changed the heading of the thread. No one had any idea what you wanted to know. Since you claim that you resolved your problem, it shouldn't matter now.

*************
Your lucky chit most people get there posts edited and the spelling corrected ,( whether there english is good or not ) , i could however see what you wanted , so if i could i cant see why others cant , anyway chit someone is obviously tricking you , a commodore 64 is over 20 yrs old and will not under any circumstances run xp without a full rebuild , which would just leave you with the original casing and keyboard if your lucky
