Stop 7E error during Re-install of Windows XP

I'm having to reinstall Windows XP. During the reinstall I get a STOP 7E
bluescreen. I've repeated 4 times and always get the same Stop 7E eoor at
the same place during the reinstall - which is just as setup is trying to
load the networking components. There is loads of free disk space so I know
that's not the trouble.

Any ideas ??

Please post a complete copy of the Stop Error Report.

Are you trying to do a Clean Install or a Repairs Install?

I'm trying to do a clean install (I wasn't presented with an option to do a
Repair install).

I should have asked earlier.

Why are you undertaking a Clean Install? Does the computer otherwise
boot in safe mode and also in normal mode?

A clean install is very rarely necessary; are you sure you want/need to
do this?

Perhaps you were booting off your hard drive rather than off your
installation CD.

OK, I couldn't resolve the problem so ot around it. I bought and fitted and
additional internal drive unit, then did a clean install on this new drive
and installed all necessary drivers. Once XP was running on the new drive I
just copied all my user data from the old installation to the new one.
Brutal, I know - but works fine.
