Windows 2000 installation problem, help!

[mribnik]

After I format my drive and it restarts the computer, everything loads up fine and it goes to the "installing devices" part. It gets about halfway through it and stops. (this is the part that says "your screen may flicker a few times." Well, my screen doesn't flicker at all and the hard drive light turns off and everything else just stops. I left it going for like 30 minutes but it still didn't move. Does anybody know what the problem is, or have any suggestions?

Thanks a bunch! Any suggestions would be very much appreciated.

Hit shift-f10 and goto the windows directory
type setupapi.log
look at the bottom couple of lones
type setulog.txt and look at the bottom couple lines

You are in Plug and Play, and my psychic debugging powers(*) tell me one of your devices is blocking the install from continuing.
