Ok, so Jer built his computer. As he pasted on page 4. Windows XP wouldn't install on it because of the SATA drive. The computer he built has no floppy drive and theres no spot to even attach the floppy cable to the mobo. Everytime the setup wouldn't continue because it couldn't recognize the Hard Drive. NOW however, after he dropped it off here because he got tired of messing with it, I started it, went through just like it did at his house a few times. But then it started doing something different, something... more sinister. Now it says that txtsetup.sif is corrupted and setup cannot continue. It says this everytime it trys to begin the windows xp setup. I've done some reading and someone said that the memory he has in here does not get auto detected by the mobo correctly, so I manually set the timing and memory voltage in the bios, but then it wouldnt even get to the xp setup it would just restart over and over. I am completely at a loss, nothing I do works...

Update: While writing this I decided to turn it back on. It'd been sitting for about 15 minutes off. It works, went into the Windows XP setup, and got to the page where it wants me to insert the disk labled Windows XP Home Edition Service Pack 2 CD into Drive: A. His computer has no floppy drive so there isn't even a Drive A: for it to ask for... What should I do? I really want to help Jer and I want to get this running because A. This is pretty much the same as my computer was gonna be so :/ Eeep B. I wanted to play CS:S on it before he picked it up. Razz

Anyone who can get this thing up and running or help me out here will receive my sincere gratitude, on installment plan, for the next 6 months.
