My system: Intel 2.66ghz, 256ram, 845 mb, 80gb sata,
I've XP SP2 installed in, but after a virus attack, I delete virus files detected by avast 4.8. But when restart my system it unable to boot. So I decided to reinstall XP. I delete old XP and format c: then install fresh XP.
NOW problem is that when it reached on 'Installing Device Drivers' or near, system stop responding and stop at this point. I try with another cd but it same.
Plz help...

optical drive problem!!!!

change your optical device & insert XPCD, restart install, it should work fine. if you are sure that you don't any virus in your system left behind then try repairing instead installing.

Try re-formatting with NTFS. Check the optical also.

Thanks to all you. After using a new optical drive the installation is now complete successfully. Thank a lot specially dhanusaud.
