I am having problem reinstalling Windows XP Home on my
notebook I keep on getting the error message "Setup had
determined that drive C: is corrupted and cannot be
repaired Setup cannot continue" I have already used a
disk utility/diagnostic from the disk manufacturer and
the scan says, "No error found" but everytime I try
reinstalling Windows XP it stops halfway and display the
error message above. Please help, any help will be
greatly appreciated. Thank you very much.
