have you tried any other CDs so far? by the way, run Memtest86+ to test your RAM first. run it on each individual module (if you have 2 installed remove one). run like 2 passes.

Hello Trigger Finger still hepling us lot then
I have a error coming up now not reading drive A

bombx3 · 07-22-2008, 08:29 AM

it nows says drive a now invalid

**TriggerFinger** · 07-22-2008, 08:41 AM

what is your drive A (CD drive, HDD, floppy)?

EDIT:
drive A usually points to a floppy. you are not using a floppy here, right? make sure there is no floppy disc inside your floppy drive. if there is one, remove it and reboot again.

i start loading the operating system and it comes up error 10008 and unexpected end of file

test the CD media in another computer or use a known working bootable CD media in your drive.

may be you have a defective recovery disc.
