I am doing a clean install on a partition that XP created
as NTFS. The install goes along fine, and gets to the GUI
past the device installs and cd key entering and all,
then begins the network portion of the installation. It
says approx. 32 min left to complete installation. That
was two hours ago. This is on an amd athalon 1.2 ghz,
256 mb ram with a 50 gig hd. Like I said the device
installs are fine no errors, the network installation
part it hangs up. Any suggestions I really need help.
 
Hi
Did you run 'smartdrive' command before starting
installation process? If not the installation might take
anything between 12-16 hours to complete. So first run
this command and restart installation process. It should
sort out your problem if all of your hardware components
are working fine.
Good luck
Bye.
