I decided i need to format my laptop as it had loads of crap on there and i was using Windows XP.

Anyway when i tired to install XP again, i got some errors with copying files it seemed The error messages said that Setup couldn't copy a file.

Heres a list of the ones it listed and couldnt find:

rio8drv.sys
riodrv.sys
tosdvd.sys
p3.sys
parport.sys
swenum.sys
processr.sys
dmstyle.dll
sonydcam.sys
stream.sys

I had to skip every file to continue with the installation

So does anyone know what i should do next ?



Edit: Also i got near to the last stages of installation and it said this:

Quote

System

The data is invalid

Click Finish to close the wizard

What should i do

Thanks, Daniel

The CD you are using to install is either badly scratched or poorly written. Try with a brand new copy and see if the issues are still persistent.

Also when i plug something into the USB slots, it doesnt seem to show it, so like that doesnt work either, anyone know how i can change that ?

Thanks alot

I bet there was a file called usb.sys (or alike) that wasn't copied over either.... Reinstall the laptop using a GOOD source and check again. Good luck!

Thanks and is it worth downloading one as it might be better ?

its either you have a dirty or defective CD/DVD xp installer or your CD/DVD Drive is not working well
