Install Fatal exception errors-XP Pro

[Guest]

Win 98se. 120gb WD drive. 512 ram. 1.88g processor. NO Anti Virus programs
installed.

I'm trying to install Retail XP Pro with Service pack 2 as a "New Install"
rather than an upgrade. It seems to go through about 10-15 minutes of install
then I get these errors.
1. Fatal exception occured at 00E8:000080D2.
2. Fatal exception occured at 0157:000075A2.
After restart, If I boot from CD, I get these error messages--
1. Blue Setup page gives me -Unexpected error (0) occured at line 1773 in
D:\xpsprtm\boot\setup\arcdisp.c.
2. Blue Setup page freezes.
Now what.

Tnx. Joe

You must be installing in windows explorer...Try installing xp cd,boot to
xp cd,select install xp,new copy,delete the partition (Win 98),create
one,then
xp formats & installs auto....Good choice to do "new" or clean install.

I have 98se running, then insert XP cd, then choose install. It starts ok then
I get the errors:
1. Blue Setup page gives me -"Unexpected error (0) occured at line 1773 in
D:\xpsprtm\boot\setup\arcdisp.c." and/or
2. Blue Setup page freezes.
Ram tests fine. When I restart it gives me the choice of canceling XP setup
or run 98se.

Well, I don't know what to do now. If someone can tell me what this error
means I might be able to install XP.
"Fatal exception occured at 00E8:000080D2". Install goes fine, until it
starts to restart then this meaasge. I reboot "press any key to start from
cd" and then get the following blue Setup page gives me -"Unexpected error
(0) occured at line 1773 in D:\xpsprtm\boot\setup\arcdisp.c".

Ram tests fine. No exclaimation marks on any device in system. All drivers
up to date. 98se runs fine. Remember, this is a "New Install" not "upgrade"
off of the CD.
