I would.

It may even be worth trying the 'low Ram' option from the start up list, although I have never tried this way so you may be on your own trying to figure it out.

In the middle ophcraqck with progress disabled*A 31d6cfeOd1 thats listed twice UpdatusUser. not found. In Sakura and searching tables in: /media/slr/tables, Tables found/media/slr/tables/xp_free_small. Found one partition that contains hashes:/media/sda2/Windows32/System32/config, starting Ophcrack. Does that mean there is nopassword?

At the bottom of the Ophcrack box it should have another section that says
Table | Directory | Status | Progress

Under the Table tab it should say XP, there should also be small box with a plus sign in it. Click that plus sign and the tree will expand so it will say something like
XP... ///media/sr0/... xx% in RAM
Tabl... xx% in RAM
Etc...

Is the progress bar to the right in green ?

Probably Best to:

1. Download these drivers and burn to CD using Windows 7 Machine.

2. Do a Clean Install of XP Machine.

3. Figure out which Drivers are needed and install them from CD made in step #1

4. Close this Topic and start New XP Topic.

Progress bars white ? Doesn't sound like the program ran, there should be a button at the top of Ophcrack screen that says Crack. Click that and it should start.

However if you want to go the clean install route then follow Ricks advice.
