Ok here is a trick which will do the same without the Need of reinstalling....I stumbled upon it quite by accident though... U need to have ur PC updated to SP1, Ppl with Pirated XP sorry, SP1 wont work... Now pop in ur XP cd and restart and boot from CD (Enable it from BIOS), Now get into Repair Prompt... Now goto C:\WINDOWS\ServicePackFiles\i386\ (assuming XP is in C:\) Now copy HAL.DLL to C:\windows\system32\... (Replace the Existing file), Restart..Tada U have a standard PC...Now reconfigging IRQ's I dont know bout that But this will make ur PC "Standard PC" also U will have to re-install all Ur Drivers...Most of em Willl be Automatic but som U'll have to provide...
