First remove (unplug) any peripherals from your computer before attempting an install
(printers, scanners, usb devices, etc). You may want to run the hardware compatibility
check or check microsoft's website before installing to see if you can figure out
which piece of hardware is causing the problem. You may need to reseat the cable
if it is the hard drive. Also Flash the BIOS to the latest version. What you do
to resolve the problem really depends on what hardware device is causing the problem.
