I installed XP-Pro some months ago in E: partition of a system that already
had Win-98SE on partition C:. I allowed setup to format as NTFS. All was well
until the system crashed, trashing partition E: to the extent that I could
not recover it. So I reformatted E: as Fat32 and started over. Setup stops
very early in the process (loading setup files) with a message that "The file
atapi.sys is corrupted. Press any key to continue.". I spoke with M/S tech
support and was directed to copy the I386 folder from the CD to the C: drive
and "Run" winnt32.exe from that folder. Same result. Any ideas?
