Have you checked your drive for errors? Go to explorer, right click on your C: drive, select properties, click the Tools tab, and click the Check Now button under Error Checking. Check both of the boxes (Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and Attempt recovery of Bad Sectors). Then click the Start button. It will tell you to reboot, so reboot. If your drive has any problems, that should fix it.

If that doesn't help, then you may have a virus. They can be tricky and virus scanners don't always work. I suggest doing this -

Get a clean DOS boot disk from someone. Make sure it is WRITE PROTECTED (the little hole should be open). You'll need FDISK and FORMAT on the floppy.

Boot from the floppy and run FDISK. Delete all partitions and make new ones. Then run FORMAT on the new partitions (after you reboot).

Next, pop in your Windows XP CD and boot from that. Re-install Windows and be sure to NOT use any driver disks (unless they are on CD). No floppys!

Windows should be able to run without any problems at that point. If you STILL get the error, then you either have a hardware problem, or a bad Windows CD.

Best of luck to ya.

Hey neosapience

i did what u said and started the error checking with those two checkbox checked and i did scan all the hdd with power quest partition magic 8 rescue disks from dos and for that u said to check with antiviruses , i did , i did scan with NORTON 2004 PRO & KASPERSKY (up to date) & SOPHOS (not updated) & F-PROT (not updated) & DR.WEB (not updated) but all the latest versions. but about what u said about the FDISK i dont want to cause if its a virus and it effects the files then when i restore the data after reinstallation the windows ill have this program again so i dont think that would be a good idea till i know if its a virus and then whats the virus to know what it can do.

if anyone have any other idea please i can use some.

That's the point fatalwoomera. If you can install Windows by itself and NOT have any problems, then something else is wrong (Your other software has a virus, or one of your programs is wreaking havok with your system).

If you FDISK and FORMAT your system with a clean, write-protected disk, you will NOT transfer any viruses.

Reinstall everything, one program at a time if you have to. You'll find what is causing the problem eventually.
