Problems Installing Windows XP on machine that already has Win XP



Im trying to install Windows XP on a machine that already has Windows XP Pro,
I have formated the harddrive the whole thing. But when it goes to install
the files it wont install all the files. So it never works.

So when I go to start the computer, it says that a file is missing. I forgot
the name of it offhand.

Am I doing everything right or not, it seemed to be working until it wouldnt
install all the files.
Thanks, Scott C. Newton
