I am having the same problem bro... but my XP SP3 CD shows the same error in Virtualbox too. I am not aware of where i am making a mistake. I know my Drives are perfectly alright (as my older SP3 cds format them easily). The problem is with my new CD but i am not able to figure it out. Help me if you can.

What is this going on..... 46 Views & NO replies. Is no one aware of the solution to the problem???? Is this MSFN "where people go to know" Please HELP ME OUT guys.... I really need to make a custom XP

Hi Guys.... I am trying to create a personalized Windows XP SP3 for myself. I have done most of the job so i converted it to an ISO using nLite for some testing in Virtualbox. Now, during the Text Mode setup I encounter this error when i try to format a drive.(i have attached the screenshot too) --------- "Setup was unable to format the partition. The disk may be damaged. Make sure the driver is switched on and properly connected to your computer. You must select a different partition for Windows XP." --------- I have tried another Virtual Partitions too but same problem. I also deleted the partition and created it again but it shows the same error when i try to format it. I thought that it was a problem with Virtual Box so i created a CD of my XP and tried to install it on my Harddisk itself but all in vain. I am sure that my harddisk is not corrupt as one of my older SP2 CD formatted it with ease and it got installed too. All in all i have tried everything that i know of computers but am not able to work it out. So, please help me guys.......ASAP
