Examine the Windows XP CD and make sure it is absolutely "pristine clean"
with no scratches, fingerprints or smudges. Use a mild non-ammonia based
household cleaning solution and a soft cloth to clean it.
1. Go to Start > Run and type: CMD , and hit enter.
2. In the Command Prompt window type: SFC /SCANNOW
and hit enter. Have your Windows XP CD available.
SFC = System File Checker. SFC will scan your system and replace
missing or damaged XP system files with the correct version.

| During the Upgrade, several files had the Copy Error and I skipped them.
| Finally it skipped a bunch and went from 28 minutes to 10 minutes to complete.
|
| Is there a way to re-install them?
