INF Failure

I am trying to install Windows XP Home on a Dell Dimension 4600 with a 160
gig sata drive. I get the following error message "INF Install failure.
Reason: The handle is invalid." This happens at 13 minuets before setup is
complete.

Is this the original hard drive? Clean install or repair? Are you using the
Dell install media?

No it is not the original hard drive. It is a clean install. Yes i am using
the original Dell disks.
