It may be that your memory needs updating, the hard drive may need a
re-format, or your setup CD needs to be replaced. Check your system
requirements for your OS+ and do a little research on your new HD.
Good luck.

Setup stops responding with 34 minutes remaining
================================

As a part of Resolution, I will advise that in BIOS Setup try Load BIOS
Defaults values if nothing helps.

Hope this help, let us know!

You all guess it right at 34 min. In fact I used a new 320gb hdd, thinking
that the mobo may not support this size, I change to 120gb, still I faced the
same problem. Ido not have spare ram to swap around.

ref kb828267 cant really make out which device is causing the problem but
will keep trying, thanks

Since I am unable to get to the log, I try to change the ram around and use a
smaller hdd (120gb), data cable etc it does not help or even make matter
worse. Now it hang at 'installing the windows' @ at 39 minutes.
Where can the problem lies......thanks
