I booted from the XP cd and it gave me an error for a corrupted file and I don't know how it could happen like that. It worked on another computer just fine.

I see that sometimes too. But what I do is make sure the disk is clean, then retry. If that does n't do it ,I use a boot floppy disk and fdisk then boot from xp disk. Works like a charm.

when that happeneds i put the xp disk into my other rom driveOriginally Posted by Shiranai_Baka
it doesn't have one.
and would a virus be able to compromise the installation of windows XP because I think theres a virus on the comp which stops games from running or maybe it stops runnign when the computer is close to full load. Well, then maybe that'll be a hardware issue.
I checked out the ram, its in tight, I checked out the vid card, the HD and the processor is running fine.
the virus wont be loaded with the xp isntall disc.
that drive might not be able to read that brand of cd (if it's a burned cd that is).
I have seen this issue before. Go into the BIOS and check that the HDD is set in LBA mode.
ahh, got it fixed guys. It was a careless error. The plastic thing used to lock the video card in wasn't locked in.. I forgot to lock it. thanks for the help guys. As for the XP disc, It all of a sudden worked again. As for VB's advice, I'll keep it in my little notebook incase something similar to this ever comes up .
Glad you figured it out. Don't you wish Microsoft would explain the errors better ? Like a voice would pop up like Asus post reporter . Hey stupid ,reseat your memory stick !
