When preparing for the installation, the program says file
is missing: C:\win_nt$.~BT\cdrom.sy_. I tell the program
to skip it (only way install will continue). When it
reaches the actual installation I get a message: file not
found C:\$win_nt$.~LS\I386\cdrom.in_ and the install
fails. I reformatted the hard drive and reinstalled
windows 98 before I tried to install xp. My computer is a
Dell Dimension L500r.
I also have a (newer) Dimension 8300. I also tried the
windows xp disc that came with that computer and got the
same messages.
Any suggestions what to do?
