Can't install guest operating

I have insalled VMWare Player 7.1. I click
"Create a new virtual machine."
The "New virtual machine wizard" starts.
I chose "Installer disk"
"Reading disk" spins for around 15 minutes.
It then says "Windows XP Professional detected"
I click "Finish"
A black screen comes on. It says
"Network boot from AMD...............
Operating system not found"
What could be wrong?
Thanks

Did you check the Connected and Connect at power on option for the CD-ROM? Second picture from the top: Install a guest operating system manually | VMware Player

Hello, I have a MacBook Pro from 2011 and I accidentally while playing around with it deleted everything off my hard drive and I need to know how I can re install an operating system. Would I have to download it.

Someone please help me
I'm not sure what I should do to re install an operating system would it be possible to install mavericks
I don't have the operating system backed up

That's not good. OS X Recovery requires a high speed broadband connection as noted here > About OS X Recovery

Can I install new operating system without wiping out all of my programs- some of which were free

Can I upgrade my OS without clearing out all programs such as Adobe Creative Suite, Office, etc as well as all files that I do not want to lose because many of the programs were free and do not have portable storage drive?

You can upgrade the OS without clearing out your programs or files, however that's no guaranty that those programs will continue to work in the new OS.
And if you plan to jump over operating systems, like going from 10.4 to 10.6 or 10.5 to 10.7 that that will require wiping the drive of all programs and installing the new OS fresh.
So perhaps you better start by telling us some details about your present hardware specifications, your computer model (like MacBook Pro 3,1) your OS X version, your RAM amount, your hard drive size, software you absolutely need, others that you can perhaps do without, and what and where you want to go etc. Also if you want to spend money and how much.
You can find out about your machine by Apple Menu>About this Mac>More information.
Your question is rather lacking on details, and people don't update their signatures so we can't go by that.

B540 can't install any operating system ?

Hi ALL, it’s great to know there is a place to get help…. I hope
I’ve just bought a B540 from a friend. I’ve checked on this site as he said it’s still under warranty, and the serial confirms it. I don’t quite know if it applies to my problem and a way to somehow get it up and running again, so maybe/hopefully someone could help me ?
So as said, I’ve just got my B540 and believe it or not, the hard disk has screwed up, while up-grading to windows 8. It basically tries to recover the windows operating system over and over again. I’ve opened a Dos windows and tried to look at the Hard drive but can’t see anything on it, all I can see is Drive X which looks like a temp directory windows makes to install.
Every time I try to recover windows 7 or 8 it simply starts, then says there’s a problem so windows has to recover ! Then goes into recovery mode and loops over and over again ?
Can someone advise on what I’ve done and find a way to bring her back to life…. PLEASE

Well Windows 8 was a Crash Bang Wallop !!! It just wouldn't install it, either the New Install, or the up-grade route !
Windows 7 has worked as it should on the B540 and everything was going very well, until I installed an up-grade from Microsoft and after a re-boot ... No Operating system found ?
So I'm back to square one...
I'm hoping the warranty is transferable ?

Start with Snow Leopard.

Is there any way windows 8.1 can be installed on an early 2008 iMac?

     Hello apple community! I've had various desktop maps since the mid-90's, but over the past 6 years I have found myself limited many times due to my computer being incompatible with many third party programs and various games that are only supported by windows. Therefore, I have finally gone out and purchased windows 8.1 from my local best buy to be run alongside Yosemite. I brought in all of my computer specifications and was told that I would be able to run the operating system.
The minimum requirements are as follows:
Processor: 1 gigahertz (GHz) or faster with support for PAE, NX, and SSE2
RAM: 1 gigabyte (GB) (32-bit) or 2 GB (64-bit)
Hard disk space: 16 GB (32-bit) or 20 GB (64-bit)
Graphics card: Microsoft DirectX 9 graphics device with WDDM driver
My specs are as follows:
iMac (20-inch, Early 2008)
OS X Yosemite (Version 10.10)
Processor: 2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
RAM: 4 GB 800 MHz DDR2 SDRAM (just updated)
Hard disk space: 332.3 GB free of 639.28 GB (plus a new 1 TB external drive that is in the process of being filled)
Graphics: ATI Radeon HD 2600 Pro 256 MB
Apparently my computer can only run bootcamp 4 and not bootcamp 5. Therefore, windows 8 is not supported for it can only be installed with bootcamp 5.
Sources: 1.Boot Camp 4, OS X Lion and Mountain Lion: Frequently asked questions - Apple Support
               2. Boot Camp: System requirements for Microsoft Windows operating systems - Apple Support
However, I've read articles about people possibly getting past these limitations, but they don't exactly follow my issue and may be outdate. Such as, http://www.videograndpa.com/?p=2628. I've seen posts from people in the forms saying that they are running windows 8 on their early 2008 mac, but they are from over a year ago. I've also read that apple may have had support for these operating systems, but dropped them, but the links to this information were broken. Best Buy has agreed to let me return Windows 8.1, but only for store credit. That is not fair if it turns out that I can not install it operating system when I was told I could by their employee.
     So, in conclusion, I'm wondering if anyone knows if I can install Windows 8.1 on my iMac from early 2008 with Yosemite and if they could walk me through it or link me somewhere that can. Thank you for your time.

Don't use a virtual machine, it's kinda cpu intensive. You CAN install windows 8.1 on your 2008 iMac. I know this because just a couple weeks ago I installed an official windows 8.1 disk on my 2009 iMac. You do NOT need to use bootcamp for it although you WILL need the boot camp drivers. Just put the drivers onto a thumb drive. You will need to install them manually, it's really easy though, so don't get discouraged. The only thing you need bootcamp for is to download the drivers onto the thumb drive. You can also download drivers for bootcamp version 5 from the apple website.
Here is how you do it: Go to disk utility inside applications folder and then utilities folder. Add a second partition to your mac and format it as FAT32.
Put the windows disk in your computer and reboot your computer. Hold down the OPTION key and then choose the "windows" disk then hit enter. Follow the instructions.
In the beginning there will be a screen asking you to select which partition you want to install windows on, highlight it, and then click on "format" because it is then going to reformat the partition as NTFS. It only takes a second. Just follow the installation instructions, it's pretty straight forward from there. And just to forewarn you, apple doesn't care to update the drivers for SOUND, people with iMac's running windows don't have sound so you will need a third party sound card adapter with a headphone and microphone jack and use either headphones or an external speaker. I got a cheap one from ebay for just a few bucks. I use the "Syba" brand and it works, it even plays that pretty windows startup sound. All sounds work, even youtube.
Thank me later! By the way, I think you will find that windows 8.1 runs way faster and smoother than mavericks or yosemite. The mac os's have gotten pretty buggy and bloated over the years and so I think we are making a switch to windows at the right time. Everyone is saying how much better microsoft has gotten and I can tell. I have everything pretty much set up how I like it in my windows 8.1 partition and it's pretty fast. Also, it is WORTH IT to pay for the MacDrive software. Just google it. It will enable you to view and change any apple formatted disk/drive, including your mac osx partition on your internal hard drive. This is important for me because all of my music is on my mac partition in itunes and I need it to add music to my iPod classic 160gb but with macdrive I can listen to the music in vlc player or windows media player. I don't think I will install itunes on windows because everyone says the windows version is buggy.

How can I install after effects on 32 bit operating system?

How can I install after effects on 32 bit operating system?
I cant even find it in creative cloud.
I want to make a intro but it dossent allow me to even find/ istall it.
I hope some one will help me by anwsering my question.
Than you for time.

If your system does not meet the minimum system requirements you have to go back to a version that does. Try the direct download links you'll find here.. CS5 comes bundled with CS4 for AE which is the last version to run on a 32 bit system.

How can i re-install the operating system without deleting my files on the computer

I'm Trying to re-install the operating system on my macbook, and i dont know, if i can only re-install the OS without deleting the Data on the computer.

If the Snow Leopard version on your Snow Leopard DVD is lower than the Snow Leopard version on your computer, you will NOT in any case be able to re-install the OS the way you want it. You will only be able to erase your disk and then reinstall the OS.
It will only "upgrade" and keep your files if the Mac OS X version of your Snow Leopard DVD is newer than the Snow Leopard version on your computer.

OS X is the same no matter where it is sold, and Lion can be switched to Russian in a few seconds by changing settings in the system preferences.
