Sounds like the files are being corrupted as they are written to the disk. You said you changed your RAM and hard disk so that should eliminate those as a possible cause. Here are a few more things you can check:

Is the hard disk properly partitioned and formatted?
Have you checked to make sure the IDE cable is not bad?
Does your disk controller require special drivers during setup?
Are you overclocking any of your components?
Could your CD-ROM drive be defective?
Your motherboard might have faulty components.

How are you launching Windows setup? When you say "after the dos installation" do you mean you are running setup from MS-DOS? If so try booting directly from your Windows XP CD-ROM and let it run setup that way instead.
