What could be causing this, Harddrive dying?
I tried installing Windows ME Full version: Files will not copy or alot of errors pop up during install.
Tried Installing Windows XP Upgrade: Files fail to copy, and setup can't finish.
Tried Linux Mandrake 8.2 Setup it freezing and I cant change to the kernel msg screen to see when its freezing.

Ive tried installing all of them from a normal cdrom and a cd/DVD rom.
I have formatted with different programs and ran scandisk and some other programs. I dont really want to lose one of my partitions but if I must, Its not a big problem.

I cant download a new linux version, So its either 8.2 or 7.1.
I havent changed or added any hardware.

I will start removing hardware one by one and installing while waiting for response.

Thanks.
