Went to setup up xp pro this weekend on a spare computer and it hangs during the installation. Here are the points i get to:

boot from cd
go through the eula
create a partition
format the partition
it copies the files
then it restarts
then it shows the windows loading screen and just stops for no matter how long i leave it on for.

it hasn't gone through the installing process yet but should if I could ever get it past that boot screen.

now this computer had xandros 3.0 on it before I tried putting xp on it, but I did a low level format to get rid of xandros.

specs:
p4 2.4 Ghz CpU
512MB pc3200 ddr ram
120gb hd
ati 32mb video
on-board lan/sound card


this is not the first time this happened, i thought well maybe something was wrong so I did another low level format last night and tried setting up xp again this morning but it still hung on the loading screen.

anyone have any suggestions? thanks.
