I do boot from the cd and it asks if you want windows xp to try to
repair the
incomplete installation, I tried that as well but it always gets to
the same
message. I can cancel out and it continues to load but only a portion
of windows loads. I can load some programs but some critical files
missing, I reboot and when asked to format I hit yes and try again
with same results.

Andrew E. is ignorant and posts nonsense.

This is true.

As for your original problem, if the cd is good (you can test it in
another system), then you have other hardware issues. It doesn't matter
if the hardware is new; in fact if hardware is going to fail it will
usually do so pretty quickly. I'd test the RAM and then the hard drive.
Here are some general hardware troubleshooting steps:
