Kids XP install probs

Hi all,

New MOBO, got the NTLDR missing error. Gave up, reformatted HD. Now when installing XP Pro, I get

Error : SXS.DLL : Syntax error in manifest or policy file f:\i386.......\gdiplus.man

The graphics card is 2 or 3 yrs old (std S3 type) and was fine before. Any ideas, or should I just get a new graphics card?

Cheers.

Welcome to TechIMO!!

Maybe some help here: http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/15875/

Also make sure your CD is clean and the drive also.

HTH,

Bill
