    Were you installing Windows on a new system (which Win version) or reinstalling on an existing system due to issues with your current system? If this was an existing system with issues, did you get any errors when verifying the original CD or DVD's when you created them?

    It sounds like you might actually have a problem with your hard drive, in which case you would need a Windows boot DVD (or CD?) in order to do "chkdsk /f C:" or another Windows computer you could connect the drive to as a secondary drive (but drive letter would be different than C:).
