[HLUG] Herefordshire Digest, Vol 1645, Issue 1

[Sean Parry]

Has anyone got any ideas on this?

I just built a new Windows 8 system today. It came up and ran like a 
dream. However it will not load windows 8 onto the new hard drive. 
Without having an earlier copy of windows on the drive. So it looks as 
if I might end up having to buy a new copy of windows XP, just to over 
right it, with Windows 8 in order to get it to load!
