OverlordMondo Posted September 24, 2004 Share Posted September 24, 2004 I'm trying to load/restore windows onto my pc from an eMachines system restore disk. It works up to naming my computer, where it is unable to load the next step. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wizard Posted September 24, 2004 Share Posted September 24, 2004 You got owned, now get a real (real or other wise) CD of Windows XP and do the magic from there. Stock Restore CDs suck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uh, yes, I do, that's what I said I had... I don't actually have an eMachine though. I am now under the impression the eMachines is the worst thing I could ever possibly have. Now how do I get it off of there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
