Recovery console Issue

[Gunner]

hi,
i brought a new Seagate Barracuda 320GB 7200 RPM 16MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard Drive and i tried to install the Recovery Console on my hard disk. Command used G:\I386\WINNT32.exe /CMDCONS using Start>Run and from the Command Prompt etc. The attached window pops up every time.The cd being used is the original genuine XP Home cd not slipstreamed with SP.2

Is this problem occur because of updated version?

Can anyone help!!!

The simplest way is to open the Local Security Settings console by entering secpol.mscinto Start-Run. Then click "Local Policies-Security Options" in the left pane. In the list that appears in the right pane find, Recovery Console: Allow Floppy Copy And Access To All Drives And Folders, and double-click it. The box will open. Click the button "Enabled" and then "OK"

What you need is to slipstream your source to the same version you have installed. Microsoft does this because mismatched versions can cause issues such as your password not being accepted in recovery console.

hi,
If you try to install the Recovery Console on a Microsoft Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2)-based computer, you receive the following error message: Setup cannot continue because the version of Windows on your computer is newer than the version on the CD.
this problem may occur if you try to install the Recovery Console by using either of the following CDs instead of a Windows XP SP2 CD:
Windows XP Service Pack 1 (SP1)
Windows XP
