andsome Posted May 10, 2008 Report Share Posted May 10, 2008 Are you trying to install on TOP of a previous installation? You should not do this with XP.Here is an installation guide. It is best to print out the parts that you need. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will show you any other windows installs, highlight it and press D to delete that partition. Then create a new partition and format it.Obviously remove anything important before hand.
