At the time of installation of XP
The first stage of the install copies a lot of files over to the drive. The second stage starts a GUI and continues to perform a bunch of operations while putting up some friendly messages every minute or so, telling me how wonderful XP is.

A timer on the screen says that setup should have 39 minutes to go. At the 37-minute mark, a small green progress bar is put on the screen in the left-hand margin indicating the progress of device installation. The count-down timer gets to about 34 minutes and the progress bar gets to the 2/3 finished point and the computer abruptly resets itself. The drive is booted and this whole process starts again with the GUI and the friendly messages and the timer at 39 minutes.
Give me for this failure solution.
