Hi, I went to Fry's the other day and bought 2 of every computer parts in order to build two new (identical) PC's for my work office. I put together one that one day and installed XP with no problem whatsoever. Then I started building the second one, everything is the same, motherboard, video card, hdd, power supply, etc. This time, I tried installing XP Pro w/SP2 again on that, and after the partitioning/quick formatting part, it starts to copy over the files from the CD to the HDD. Well, everything copied over, UNTIL it reach to about the 65%, 75% mark and I get a "xxxxxxx.dll file cannot be copied to the disk" or something like that, it said to press Enter to try again, or this other option to skip the file. Well I try again, and it seems like it copied it over, then another file cannot be copy to the hard drive, I keep getting the same error over and over. So I keep pressing Enter to retry, retry. After the process completes, Windows setup starts, seems like it's working like it should, but then I keep getting errors, so I know it's not copied over correctly. Does anyone know what's going on? How to fix this problem? I tried different CD-ROM drives, different XP CD's, hdd's, even exchanged the motherboard cuz I thought that was the only problem left, and that didn't work.

My other question is, since I can't install XP on that machine for some reason, I switched the HDD over to the machine that did install correctly, and XP installed correctly. So I figure, I could just switch the newly installed OS to the tower I had trouble with installing XP with and it should boot up fine (and since all the parts are the same I figure it could work). So that's exactly what I did, XP starts up fine, but after updating all the drivers and such, it hangs, and sometimes it just crashes. Is there something I could do to fix this as well? Like could I start up Windows in like Safe Mode or something, then let Windows do a search for hardware changes? Would that work? Thanks in advance.
