    Hi Guys,

    I bought a Komplett Gamer without the OS. I installed XP SP2 myself but it failed halfway through due to an inability to install certain SP2 files.

    I then tried to install XP (without service packs) but it keeps looking for the SP2 files.
    Is there anyway i can reformat the SATA 2 drive back to factory condition to allow me to install XP (without SPs)?

    Thanks

    Ya, set your bios (press del on post) to boot from cd 1st, put xp cd in the drive, & xp installer will give you the option 2 format hd b4 install.
