XP Setup Says: Setup cannot create the following: \windows

I am using the xp disk for partition and formatting. I did chkdsk in the recovery option and it did find one or more errors. I ran chkdsk repair and it said it fixed all errors.

All of this happened when I installed two more ram modules in my computer. The new ram must have corrupted my existing xp install. So I took out the new memory and tried a fresh install.

I tested the install cd on another computer and it installs fine
I took out all memory and used a stick from another computer, still no go
I changed out the dvd drive, still no go

I have not tried another hard drive, but I will later today. I will also change out the dvd cable.

Most of the info on the net with this type of problem usually points to memory problems. I tried a good stick so now I am back to the drawing board.
