XP Install Problem
I had to reformat my drive (I let Windows do it) so I can reinstall Windows. The drive is a 5 year old WD 20GB. When Windows went to start installing the OS it stopped and said 'Invalid Parameters - setup will not quit'. Any ideas?

what parameters are incorrect ? a 20 gig hard drive is pushing it for xp (home or pro) ? and a bit more information on the complete system may help did you make sure that you deleted any partations that may have been ont the drive ? and what does windows report as the total space avaiable ? |
