I can't install WinXP. Installation always stops to screen "setup is inspecting your hardware configuration" and jams. I've also tried to update my current WinMillenium, but the result is still same. I got same problem with every NT based OS such win2k, I cant install 'em either. I tried with my friends athlon processor and installation went fine! So I think the problem is my processor. Im asking a solution to my problem, is some file that jams computer and can I remove it? Please, help me!
