Windows XP and Setup error

[Theo Klerkx]

Dear Friends,

In Windows XP Professional Setup
I receive constant this message:

"The following value in the .SIF file used by Setup is corrupted or missing:

Value 0 on the line in section [SourceDisksFiles] witk key "SP1.cab"

Setup cannot cintinue. To quit Setup, press F3."

What's the problem here?

Kindest regards,
Theo

If you are using the Windows XP setup disks,
make sure you have downloaded the correct set of setup disks.

If your have a Windows XP CD with SP1, you need to download
the setup disks for use with the Windows XP SP1 installation CD.

If your Windows XP installation CD does not include SP1,
use the setup disks for the "original release" of Windows XP.
