Upgrade from ME to XP home fails

[sak]

Attempting to upgrade from me to xp home I get a blue
screen error message about 1/2 way through the copy file
part of the up grade. The monitor goes black several
times prior to the error message. The anti virus has
been disabled.

Thanks

"A blue screen error" - sorry, but my crystal ball is broken, care to
enlighten me as to what the error might be...?
