Hi Sir,
I am unable to complete windows XP professional setup.I have formatted D,E,F drives after entering into the system.After that I kept a bootable CD and I formatted C drive during setup.After setup has completed copying setup files system is restarting and displaying the error as " WINDOWS COULD NOT START BECAUSE OF AN ERROR IN THE SOFTWARE.PLEASE REPORT THIS PROBLEM AS:LOAD NEEDED DLLs FOR KERNEL.PLEASE CONTACT YOUR SUPPORT PERSON TO REPORT THIS PROBLEM".On seeing this I pressed enter and the system got restarted and displayed the following error as" A DISK READ ERROR OCCURRED.PRESS CTRL+ALT+DELETE TO RESTART".I hope u people can solve my problem.

Remove the partiotion table, re-create partitions, then install.

Or

Using dos enter a command "/ mbr" without quote. Use this in drive c or where u want to install.

Then try to install
