Title: Error when trying to load window 2000
Post by: Nanc on September 24, 2004, 05:04:11 PM

Hi!

I Need some help here.  I have a new hard drive that I can not get up and running. After using all four boot disks - I try to load windows 2000 - it never loads!  Here is the message I am getting:

The Following value in the .SIF flie used by set up is corrupted or missing:  
  Value 0 on the line in section [SourceDiskFiles]
  with key 'sp4.cab'
Set up can not continue

Then I get this:

NTLDR is missing

Any help would be great!  

Thanks,

Nanc
