Hi Everyone,

I am having a problem installing Windows XP integrated with SP2 in a
computer. Setup fails when it is half way through installing devices, even
when I restarted setup several times. Is there a solution to this problem?

Shafiee.

Hi Shafiee
You don't say what's actually happening eg rebooting, lockup, error
message etc.
Usual thing to do is remove any non essential items (sound card,
printer, network card,) and start with a minimal machine. That should
get you started and then add the bits one by one you've taken out.
They will either work - or not but at least you'll know what is causuing
the problem and then you can trouble shoot just that.
