Can someone please help me. I've trying to install winxp SP2 but it keeps hanging during installation. I already updated the bios of my motherboard but it still hangs.

That points to a hardware fault. Make sure your cpu is not overheating and test the memory with www.memtest.org

Well, don't give up just yet. There's always a cause for problems like that, we'll just have to find it. Could you give us a list with what was originally in the pc (brand/model of everything including the PSU) and then everything you tried switching with and the results. And did you run memtest86 ? Even if it tests okay, we can at least disregard the memory as a potential troublemaker...
