During install of XP Pro on a new and clean system, PC hangs during hardware installation. AFter resetting the PC it hangs again at the same moment.
Tried to boot with W98SE bootdisk, but this is not recognized (I/O error}. PC boots up with a XP bootdisk, but cannot format to start from scratch. Copied format.com on the XP bootdisk, but this program cannot be run in DOS mode.
MoBo: ASUS p4S800D
CPU Celeron 2,8
512 Mb RAM
CD/DVD RW Samsung 16x +/- DL
Anybody any suggestion how to proceed further?

Though no USB Card reader installed, disabled USB, same problem.
Replaced the CD player by one of which I am sure it's working OK, same problem.
Inserted a brand new HD, same problem. PC keeps on hanging on the very same spot.
Fortunately I bought all the parts in the same PC shop, so I returned it and it will be tested in their workshop.
Thanks for trying to help me out. Have a great 2005!
