I have 2 Spare Compaq deskpros. One of them has been giving me problems for some time now. The other works as smooth as ever. I decided to take a 30gb Maxtor fireball, format it then install XP onto it from the PC that has been giving me problems. It starts up installing fine until the part where it starts copying files. It starts giving problems by about 27% or while it is copying "Drivers.cab". It feels like the hundredth time that i have attempted to install XP. I have used a win 98 boot disk and tried it from there. I have copied the I386 files and tried it like that.Nothing seems to work....so i disconnected the harddrive and connected it to the Compaq that works. It installed with no problem. I need some advice from anybody who knows how to fix it or has some experience with this sort of problem....Very much Appreciated
