Neal, I still can't post anything to the lib list...would you please put this on for me? Thanks, Mike Hodish Subject: XP on ff1100 I have been running Win98 SE in Japanese on my ff1100 w 96 mb ram. Tried to install XP yesterday. First tried from cd... using my pc card cd prohibited me form having a nic card in, so no internet at that time, so I told install it could not go ahead and download updated install files.Got an error: An unexpected error (is there any other kind), line 5118 in d:\xpclient\base\boot\setup\setup.c Cannot continue. Status codes 0x4,0,0,0. I don't get the reference to drive d, at all. the stuff is on c, and not in that directory. Then, copied all of cd to desktop, tried same install, got same error. Then, tried letting it download net updated install, got same error. Oh, and it also warns me that because xp is in a different language that the original os, i can't install it as an upgrade. So now, I have a dual boot system, and if I select xp, it goes back into the install routine, which always fails the same way. Several questions: a. What might this mean, and how do I get around it? b. If I can't get around it, how do I uninstall what has happenned so far so I don't have this dual boot thing c. How exactly is partition magic used? Nothing really vital on this box, but a nice setup, so b4 going further, would like to create another partition, undo this dual boot mess, ghost what I have to partition 2, and then try the install again. Is it likely a source of the problem that the install files are currently on c, which is also the installation target?
