xp install problem

[shadowman31]

help please! I have never seen this before! I can't get windows to install on my main system!
XP or 2000! when I am installing windows it will get to the f8 option in the install then stops.
I can hit the esc and end it but the f8 doesn't work to go on. the only way to install windows is to ghost it. I have upgraded my system and still no go!!

Please help

you have to hit the f8 button in the installation process to then choose which hard drive you install to!!
