please read the MVP signature before proceeding:

"Backup is a PC User's Best Friend"

running fdisk and deleting partitions will ensure you will
lose any data on this drive. unless of course you aren't
concerned about such things. from reading that you are
trying to install over an existing installation, you may
have some information on the drive you would maybe not
want to lose [family pictures, home movies, whatever]. i
would suggest if you have more than one machine, take the
drive out of the install machine, set it as a slave drive
in non-install [hopefully NTFS friendly OS] machine, and
copy the contents over to the system drive in the non-
install machine or back up to desired removable media of
choice. then once you have all your stuff, fdisk and wipe
the install drive.

if you still get that message, /points to bad cd install
media.

it's scary to me that someone would just say go ahead
fdisk without first recommending to move/copy personal
data off the drive. internet forum users don't give two
hoots about your data, but you should.

if you have already backed up your data prior to install
attempt [best case scenario], please disregard and follow
the directions as indicated by MVP.
