Trouble with fresh install of ME

[Arount]

I upgraded to ME then decided after having some lock ups that I'd reinstall ME fresh. After scandisk runs I get an error that reads:

standard mode: Bad Fault in MS-DOS Extender
stack fault, etc,etc,etc.

Anyone seen this before???

Thanks for any help,
Art

Reformat your hard drive and try it again.

Check the media for scratches and also try doing a low-level format of your HD...

boot into dos from a boot disk and format c: /u and see if that will work...

I've seen this errors many times. Usually if your cpu is frying! Touch your heatsink , if you can't hold it for 10 seconds straight , there's your problem. Also this can happen as a result of a bad dimm or a corrupted cab file. Something is affecting the push/pop stack register routine of the o/s install.
