XP Repair, Cannot copy i386 files

Hi Guys,

My hd half died yesterday and i had to do a chkdsk to get my data back. After that it bluescreened on startup so I tried a repair installation.

During the installation I get the following message:

"Setup cannot copy the file ntevt.dl_.

Ensure the disk labeled W XP Home Edition SP2 is in the drive...bla bla
provide the location where it can be found"
and a prompt to select the file.

For about 20 files all in the i386 folder. These are on the cd in the right place but when i try to select them it says that ^^^. I've tried copying the files to my c: and going from there but no luck.

I have also tried selecting the files that are still in my c:\i386 folder (presumably from my original xp installation) these are accepted (i get a message saying the file already exists and is newer, overwrite?) but the computer restarts after a while and goes back to the start of the installation again.

Thanks, Leigh


p.s. just before the i386 files the message comes up asking for a graphics driver but i assume this is neglegable
