Tried to reinstall windows xp from disk....set up failed with the error:
A problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage
to your computer
The problem seems to be caused by the following file: usrserft.sys

Computer restarts and I get a blue screen stating that "the set up is
restarting"
set briefly proceeds the I get the error:
setup encountered an error while trying to set system security.

Computer restarts and I get the the blue screen "the set up is restarting"
and it happens over and over again.

cannot start up safe mode, system restore, or repair options

Is there a command prompt that will stop the set up from starting?
If not what avenue should I pursue now?
Completely at a loss and cant find this exact problem online dont know what
to do.
Any help would be appreciated, TIA

Try disconnecting any U.S Robotics devices you may have. That
usrserft.sys is one of theirs.
