at the intial portion of the windows xp set up after you press any button to launch the installation of windows xp, i am having a little problem

at the portion of the blue startup screen where it says "windows is starting up" my machine just powers down. i see it loading all of the drivers before this with no problem.

also i was able to use the same disk that i made in Virtual PC and installed successfully. any ideas on what this problem could be?

thanks again.

Seems that u messend up with some settings (may be with drivers or winnt.sif or may be file corruption/missing)

Try testing the CD in VMWARE and Few more PC

Did u load some kinda initial Drivers ?

Check ur Winnt.sif once again,,

if not again

try to rebuild once again from scratch
