Hii guyz, I was facing this since several months and so delayed the formatting n reinstalling of xp.
But i must format the drive n install a fresh copy.
Whenever i put the cd, it boots n then "Setup is inspecting your h/w config." screen comes and then BLACK....everything goes black and nothing happens after that......

Why is this happening....Tell me some way to get rid of this.
My config:

Intel P4 3.0
2 GB RAM , WD 500 GB
Win XP sp2

Waiting for ur suggestions......

may be ur CD or CD Drive is corrupted.???? try running CD in different computer. and also run any other CD in Windows XP, to see if ur CD Drive is correct. if both are fine then most probably a RAM problem.

@abhi thnx 4 rplying....but these are basic things and b4 posting here i usually do whatever things possible by my side.
I already bought a new DVD drive and this one is absolutely fine. I tried with a different stick (a 1 GB).
No issues with that......

@Gaurav i tried installing both sp2 n sp3, the same problem arose....the HD is SATA. (and i bought it just 8 months ago)
