Help Installing Windows 2000

B

BigBuck98

I am trying to install Win 2000 on a new hard drive that I purchased. I get
to the second reboot and then I get a message that says that the drive is
corrupt. I returned the first 2 drives that I received because of this
message and now I get the same message from the third.
I have installed and deleted Win 98 se on this drive with no problems and
when I do a Scandisk it does not give me any error messages. I have tried
installing from the 4 boot disk and also from the CD
Does anyone know what I may be doing wrong?
