Xp install dies everytime at 60%

WillyBurz · Feb 21, 2005, 05:36 PM

I have had the xp pro crash and not able to boot. I have zero out the hard drive to start fresh install. but when installing it it stops at 60% gives me a error saying that the image disc is bad. but running same disk on different system it goes thru just fine. I got new IOS image and did it again and it did the same error. Does any body have any idea on how to get this going. Or any way how to dumb this file thrugh ms-dos I have tried everything and I' about ready to piss this thing down the drain.

did you use an original XP CD or what type of the image file that you use for setting up Windows ? and exactly, what the error said ?

WillyBurz · Feb 21, 2005, 06:28 PM

it is original and the what i did was burn that image to hard driver and recopied it to fresh cd and works fine on other system but not this one. Did a upgrade to motherboard would the bios have somthing wrong with it not letting it copy file right.

WillyBurz · Feb 21, 2005, 06:31 PM

the error read as this file can't be copied the prompt me to the screen to where it ask if i wanted to skip it or exit or retry. can it be the cd-rom not reading right as well. or would it be the bios.

PangingJr · Feb 21, 2005, 06:32 PM

exactly, what the error said ? and when it happened ? always at the same point ?

edit-- okay, try changing the CD drive and try the setup again.

WillyBurz · Feb 21, 2005, 06:38 PM

do you think it could be the cd drive..What about the bios some has told me that i got get the OG. bios on it or trip the board. whta do you think

PangingJr · Feb 21, 2005, 06:44 PM

try another CD drive first. and see. (just during the setup)
pls post back.

---

and as you told us this same setup CD can be used on the other system without any error. if the files that cannot be copied on this system during the Windows setup are not important files (such as some bitmaps for using on Windows tour) then you can skip, and then copy these files from another XP system to this system in the same location at later time. but first you will have to give me the name of the files and then i can tell you what to do next.. so write down the name of files that the setup program cannot copy from CD, and see how many files that cannot be copied ?

---

also, try giving your system a good cool-down period, turn off the system, then removing and reseating the system RAM modules. it might need just that. and try setting up the Windows again.

not quite sure that i understand,
But anyway run the Windows setup again, you will do a "clean" Windows XP installation.
set BIOS to boot CD before HDD and also disable the BIOS virus checks, leave the rest of Bios settings at default. then boot the XP CD direct, then select and "delete" the current partition and then create a new RAW one to be formatted, then choose to run a regular format on the partition (not the quick one) so that, the HDD will be scanned for bad sectors, going on to format the new partition as part of the setup and continue the Windows setup.

before starting to setup the Windows,
in this case you would have to remove every hardware devices from the system except PS/2 keyboard and mouse. you know what i mean.

And, whenever you receive any BSOD write down the error code and other things that shows on that screen, and tell us in full detail.

Is that a "normal" windows setup or has it been slipstreamed with SP1 or SP2?

Have a look here:

If you're trying to install a SP2 slipstreamed CD, have a look at this page as well:
