Crash on XP reinstall during installing devices 34 min

[Guest]

Hi

Somehow my system got corrupted. I suddenly had long boot cycle with a crash when i wanted to logon to my user account. I decided to do a XP reperation. During the "re-" installation it keeps crashing at "installing devices" 34 minuttes

Anybody experienced the same thing....and came up with a solution?

System
P4 2.
XP Home SP1 (all updates installed
Radeon graphics car

Thanks

NOTE: It would be best to physically disconnect all your peripheral hardware
devices, except the monitor, mouse and keyboard, before repairing XP.
