Have you tested the CD media? Tried two different cd's and same problem. Also tried to install from these cd's to another pc and works fine. This would indicate the problem is an interaction between the drive in the HP machines and the CD media causing read errors. You may want to get a replacement set of media, or try swapping a different CD drive into the HP box. |
