Trying to reinstall windows XP

[Guest]

Hi was told to reinstall windows XP but with six floppy disk. I have done
everything it has told me but when i try to set up a new version after i put
disk 6 it says:
The following value in the .SIF file used by Setup is corrupted or missing:

Value 0 on the line in section [Source Disks Files]
with key "SP1.cab."

Setup cannot continue. What does all this mean and what do i need to do to
correct the problem?

You can deep-six those floppy disks when installing xp.Simply boot into the
BIOS,install xp cd,set to make youre cdrom the 1st boot device (usually found
in boot section,device priority),then exit BIOS,boot to xp cd,at the info
page,
select install xp,new copy,delete the partition,create one,then xp will
format
and install auto.
