RE: W2K Pro Install

[Jones Matt]

Try copying the contents of the CD onto the HDD, and running the install from there. This resolved a similar problem a machine gave me on Win95 once.   matt -----Original Message----- From: Network Issues [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 27 September 2001 20:18 To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: W2K Pro Install Goodmorning All,   I've been working on installing W2K Pro on a test box and I continually receive an error during the setup process.   I am able to get to the portion of the CD install where it begins copying files to the hard drive.  However, each time at about 17% or 18% of the process I receive an error that a particular file cannot be copied to the hard drive.  I can hit retry and the same message reappears.  The message further states that there is something wrong with the CD and if the error persists to call MS Support.   The test system is a P3/600 with 2 SCSI drives running off of an Adaptec 2940UW controller.  I have swapped all of the parts out:  SCSI cables, IDE cable for the CD, the actual CD and I've also used 3 different copies of W2K Professional on CD.   I really don't want to call MS.  Anyone have any suggestions?   TIA   Ron Want to unsub?
