Windows Wont Install

[Guest]

I bought a new HD and tried to install XP pro, It formatted fine then,
When it Gets to the "Copying files for installation" part
These Messages Keep Popping Up:
Windows Cannot Copy This File: xxxxx.xxxx
Then it gives options to retry or skip

It does this for every other file or so

Try booting to xp cd,recovery,press enter key for password,then typeiskPart
In DiskPart,delete the partition,create one,then press Esc Key,then type:
FORMAT C: /FS:ntfs When thru,type:EXIT Let xp restart,reboot to xp cd,
install xp.

Most file copy issues are due to a problem with either the CD
drive or the CD itself. Take a look for scratches or smudges on
the CD. Is this an original installation CD or a copy? Avoid
using copied CD's. You might also consider changing the CD drive.
Finally, since this is a new HD, recheck your cable connections.

Good luck

Thanks For Your Help Guys

Just After i had posted this I found out that it was Ram Incompatibility

I was trying to use PC133 ram when it would only support pc100

Glad to hear that you've got that fixed.
