I have tried two different copys of the latest build. I am installing from a formatted drive, fat32. I run smartdrv.exe and then start the install. It will get through the first part and shutdown for the first time. When it comes back up, it copies a few more files and then hangs. It says in the lower left hand corner something about Setup is Starting Whistler. I have ran Win 9x, Win ME, Win NT and Win 2k on the computer in the past. Since it stops at the same stop while using two different copies, I am thinking it is a system issue, but I can install any other OS and it works fine. I have tried installing from the CD and by coping the files to the c: and installing from there. Can anyone help!?
Here is my system:
