Hi,
I'm trying to install XP pro using the boot disks
provided via this article:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?
FamilyID=83f53be9-28fa-40e8-8ec2-
631504ef5e26&displaylang=en
This is a clean install on a raw 80 gb maxtor hard drive.
2 ram slots - 128mb & 64mb. IBM NetVista P3 800. After
installing the boot disks and formatting the hd, I
receive an error that ".sif file is missing or corrupt"
and "Value 0 is not valid for 'SP1.cab'". I have to hit
F3 to reboot as XP cannot finish installation. Upon
reboot I get the following error: "NTLDR is Missing Press
CTRL + ALT + DEL to restart"
Since this isn't an upgrade I couldn't find any support
articles to help me out with this. I'm hoping someone at
MS can debug the boot disks or anyone in the news groups
has overcome this before.
Thanks.
Chris
