Hi all I am totally new to this forum ,so If I say anything wrong plz forgive.My problem is that my computer had windows XP installed,in it . I had to format my computer and when I tried to reinstall it the installation process stops at middle and stays like that for days. the blue screen comes, formats the disks,partitions,copies everything but after the machine restarts the XP logo comes and nothing happens there after,I tried using windows 98 still I couldn't install it,Plz if anyone knows what to do tell me, Thanks
