ERROR COPYING FILE cdrom.inf to
C:\$WIN_NT$.~LS\1386\cdrom.in_

I purchased XP today and tried to install. This error message will not allow me to install it. I even went to a computer repair place and they could not figure it out. It is now 2:16am and I am exausted trying to figure this out.

Kelly suggested another cd. Not the answer. Tried another brand new one.
XP's troubleshooting is insufficiant too.

Perhaps, you should have been smart enough to know that it is an I not a 1.

A typo perhaps, in typing the error message!
