installing windows

[cluis89]

ok ive just put a second pc together and am trying to put windows xp on it, i get it partitioned and formatted, then get it loaded to the actual installation with the GUI but when its loading the drivers it asks me that the *battery* driver is not in the Windows Hardware Compatibility List, (HLC) and it also does that for the CD ROM, wtf!!!!!!!!
so i select continue anyway and then it gets to the CD key, i enter the CORRECT cd key and it says that its not the correct one, its a duron 700 on a GA-7DXR with 32x CDROM and two 10 GIG hard drives, can any one help me

Yes we can help

please could you tell me what version of windows you are trying to install, and what Ram you have?

Also please could you tell me if you have removed the old partition and stuff off the hard drive before trying to install the os, or is the hard drive new?

If you want to Install an operating system so you have to put the CD in cdrom and them you have to give a boot to your PC through CDrom support then it automaticaly detect your hardware and then you are done.
