Roboot problem from Dell system CD

[Guest Peter M]

Trying to reinstall WXP from my Dell system CD. I changed setup so that am

botting from the CD. Things go OK but then get error message that some files

are missing, and can't get past that point. Amy suggestions?

Thanx

Failure to install an operating system is usually caused by:

 

1. Bad install disk (test on another computer); or

2. Bad optical drive; or

3. Bad hard drive; or

4. Bad RAM; or

5. Other failing hardware components; or

6. Combination of some of the above.

 

Since you didn't give any information about your system, the exact error

message, and why you needed to reinstall, that's as specific as I can get.
