Maybe i did something wrong. :( i dont know. does somebody know how to fix this problem? how to format hard drive in different way then from WINDOWS CD?

PLEASE HELP ME =]
 
My guess is a bad Cd. Not sure if it could be memory related or not, it it has problems copying files over to the drive then its memory related. I just did a google search on the error and all the hits refer to memory problems. So check your memory, try using only 1 stick in different slots or running memtest on them.
 
Looks like you have a bad CD. The other possibility would be a bad hard drive, but this seems unlikely given the message. Did you have any drive errors previously? Why are you reinstalling XP?
