hey everyone,
i just finished building a system for my friend. it boots just fine until it actually boots to the hard drive, i get an error message "a disk read error occured press ctrl+alt+del to restart" is there anything im doing wrong here? or is there something wrong with the hard disk?...the hard disk has windows xp pro installed in it, maybe thats the problem? should i have a fresh install of windows?...much needed replies, thanx everyone.

or if you want to save all your old settings you can run a repair (an over-install)
