This just started hapening very recently. My sister messed up our computer (kazaa, lots of sites with spyware) anyways, i had to reformat and reinstall windows on it. However, this time when i started to install Windows XP Home, during the setup i got a blue screen error message (something about page file dump), and i tried about 4 more times, and all of those times it got stuck while copying a file and it couldnt read any file past there. So i installed Windows 98SE, and i got a blue screen a few times, however i was able to finish the install and now its operational, but when i try to install XP Pro, it keeps giving me those blue screen error messages.
Do any of you know what could be causing this problem? at first i thought it was the cd because it was pretty scratched, but then i used win 98 which isnt scratched but it happened again. So now im thinking its either a hard drive, motherboard, or ram problem. And i tried taking that hard drive and putting it in my comp and installing XP home, but it happened to me to (and i have the same motherboard and ram on both comps).
Any help would be appreciated!
