If you don't care about data on the hard drive format the drive first and then install XP. You may also find that your XP CD is bad in this case try different disc if possible. Good Luck.

Cannot install win xp

Hi Phine_24,
I think you've problem with Harddisk.Try to find spare one and install again it should work. Very strange is that if you remove your hardisk out and test externally it should sometime work fine but sometime fail.I think it's a starting sector or some check up that windows or hardware need and it couldn't access it.
goodluck,takecare.
