I had a Win98 SE OS and decided to install XP, done
without no errors than xp sp1a.
After i have installed XP and the sp it started to give
error in archieve files like cab,zip,rar. I have tried the
same files in other PCs but nothing wrong with the files.
I have formatted again and tried to install XP again but
give the error, "unable to read the file" when reading
from cd, i have changed the cd from CDW to DVD, as i can
see the file which setup can't read when
i browse, setup couldn't see it.

And again i decided to install back my lovely os, the
magnificient W98SE. But i was shocked when i saw the
following error in setup, after the 1st task when started
to 2nd task.

Error : SU99322 Copy session not open and failed
to load expansion dll (suexpand.dll)

I have formatted several times and tried to install but
always at the same place it gave the same error.

What i have done;
1-) I have checked my bios settings, loaded back the
default settings
2-) Checked the virus protection from bios, it was
disabled, nothing wrong with the mbr
3-) Downloaded the diognosis progs from Maxtor HDD
website, PowerMax and Max Blast3,
checked the hdd but found no errors. Hdd is 40gb Maxtor
6L040j2
4-) Checked the ram from bios, passed all.

My PC is Siemens 1279 mainboard with via266 chipset, 256
DDR ram, 1 GHz AMD, Leadtek GF2

After 2 weeks i have tried everything but still unable to
install any of these 2 OS.

Please someone tell me all about this shit !!!
