XP installation

J

Jan Ophoff

I'm trying to install XP upgrade SP-1 on a harddisk which
replaces the original, harddisk formatted NTFS. After
removing the old harddisk and installing the new one I set
the CD drive as bootdrive. I have the required CD for
upgrading which XP asks for it goes through the process
and copies file on the harddisk it than reboots but after
rebooting the installation does not continue but the
system states that it is unable to load operating system.
Any suggestions
