Hi everyone....here's my dilemma..I needed to do a reformat,(done many
before)I have xp w/sp2 w/ a pro update--put the xp home disc in and get
this..INF txtsetup .sif missing or corrupt cannot copy ending install....I
looked this up and found it can be a few things..I printed a couple of
knowledge base articles,but it seems complicated..can anyone make it sound
less technical for me...I have fixed a few mistakes before so I'm not an
idiot....what exactly will i need to complete this job????( oh and my nvidia
drivers are on floppy)should i take my video card out???
is it a bios issue???

Well, after trying a bunch of different things , I got ahold of a full
install of PRO and it went w/out a hitch...that got me thinking , so.. I
copied the pro , went well...THEN when I tried to copy my home version I kept
running into "cannot read file from disc" right around the' tu..' to 'tx..'
files...I have come to the conclusion that my home disc is damaged on that
area where those files are stored...this sucks !!!!I guess I'll have to
either get another HOME disc or get ahold of that 6 disc boot---I might be
able to pick up a cheap home on the net, that's how I picked up my pro
upgrade!!....something to ponder.........
