I just had a hard drive crash, and after installing a new hard drive, I
cannot get Windows XP to install. During installation, I get an error
copying random files, and then finally, the blue sccreen of death. I've
tried two different hard drives, two different cd drives, and 2 different
copies of XP. I have also installed a new RAM chip. Can someone please
help?

Thank you.
