You claimed to have "have done computer stuff for quite a while" yet you are 
too fucking dense to realise that if the OEM CD boots on one machine but not 
on another then the problem is not necessarily with the OS.

You claimed to have "have done computer stuff for quite a while" yet you are 
too fucking dense to realise that if the OEM CD boots on one machine but not 
on another then the problem may be the equipment you're trying to install it 
on.

You claimed to have "have done computer stuff for quite a while" yet you are 
too fucking dense to realise that if the OEM CD boots on one machine but not 
on another then the problem may be the equipment you're trying to install it 
on yet you failed to post the specifications of said equipment.

You claimed to have "have done computer stuff for quite a while" yet you are 
too fucking dense to realise that if the OEM CD boots on one machine but not 
on another then the problem may be that OEM CD is BIOS locked for the 
ThinkPad yet you failed to post any distinction of that point.

You claimed to have "have done computer stuff for quite a while" yet you are 
too fucking dense to even to say who the OEM is.

You claimed to have "have done computer stuff for quite a while" yet you are 
too fucking dense to realise that if you have an OEM CD that isn't BIOS 
locked then you should take the matter up with the OEM.

You claimed to have "have done computer stuff for quite a while" yet you are 
too fucking dense to realise that Microsoft do not sell OEM CDs therefore 
the statement "I have a legal purchased from Microsoft OEM windows xp Pro 
SP2c" is provably false.

I can nominate many more of your fuckwitted failures but I'm assuming you'll 
get the general idea. The point is, people who claim to "have done computer 
stuff for quite a while" and miss out vital points like those enumerated 
above will continue to miss out vital points during the troubleshooting 
process, which means it is a totally futile exercise to even bother with 
your scatterbrained approach to specifying vital detail because you will not 
truthfully answer any person who is willing to help you. Old habits die 
hard, hey.

You have two choices. Fuck off to 24hoursupport.helpdesk or install Ubuntu 
as you threatened.

I recommend you install Ubuntu because the cunts in 24hoursupport.helpdesk 
will do to you what you would do to the posters in this group who might have 
been willing to help you save for your bullshit "I'll pretend I'm a 
technical type person to save myself some embarrasment" post.

HTH & HAND
