Dont you love it how your hard drive refuses to format when you re-install WinXP?
Hence leaving you without an OS on your PC

Did you boot it off the CD or did you start the installation through Windows?

I attempted to do it through Windows and realised i needed to do it through the cd to be able to format my comp, i poped the cd in and booted from cd. Then it gets to 20% and just stops.

Anyways i just put my original XP CD in not the slipstreamed one and it worked.

Now my slipstream cd is in there and its loading just fine.
