Sorry if this is in the wrong area, but it seemed the best one.
I have built a new system in an Antec Sonata II Case. It is an AMD X2 4200+ in an ECS KN1 SLi Lite, with 1 stick (1 Gig) from a matched pair of Corsair RAM. There is a Maxtor 200 Gig SATA Hard drive, a X-Fi Fata1ty sound card, and a DVD writer and a DVD reader.
Since having the problems i put in an 80 gig IDE HD, in case the SATA HD was the problem.
What happens is i boot from the XP Home SP2 CD and get to the bit where it says, hit enter to install windows, r to repair windows or esc to quit setup. Here it seems to freeze, as whatever i press nothing changes, although when i hit enter you here some increased activity from the DVD drive.
Any suggestions please?
Thanks in advance!
