Im trying to install win2k SP1 onto a newly built comp. Its a Duron 900 on an Abit KT7-a with 128MB Infineon RAM, a Maxtor DiamondMax 20gb 7200 rpm HD, and an ati pro 32MB video card.
Heres the problem, and its odd because Ive used this CD and parts combination a number of times before:
When installing, the installation process is unable to copy the following files from the CD: mfc40, mfc40u, mfc42, mfc42u, and shell32.dll(all 5 are dlls). I get a similar message for around 20 or so other files, but they copy ok after a few retrys. Obviously the install crashes shortly afterward without these files. This is a SP1 cd that I created from my original win2k professional cd. I originally thought maybe the disk was corrupt, so I created a new SP2 integrated CD, and again the same problem. I switched in another CD-Rom and again the same problem. There is also a SB Ensonique 16 sound card, and a dlink network card in this system.
The processor is staying at 34 deg C, and I format the HD every time I try the install. Im at my wits end with this, and am open to any suggestions.
Anyone who has any ideas it will be greatly appreciated!!

true, have you ran crc.exe on the cdrom's volume? might be a small problem with the burn, i doubt it though since you've used it before and it installed fine. If it's a RAM problem, try taking some out and try changing the CAS Latency in the bios, and make sure you have not got the CPU Overclocked.
