My brothers girlfriend recently came to me about fixing a pc that was givin to her for free. I opened the case to find out that there was no memory installed. I happened to have some old memory lying around and stuck it in, it worked. Now I turned on the pc and it did not have an operating system on it. Just to let you know, this is an old pc, it's a Pentium 4. On the case it has an XP Home product key. I borrowed an XP Home CD from a friend and let it load up. I delete the partition and try to install the XP Home edition on pc.
It deletes the partition but when I try to install it says something like "warning this partition already has an operating system on it and continuing the installation could cause problems." I don't understand.
What should I do next?
