Problems Installing WindowsXP Media Center Edition

I am having lots of trouble installing WindowsXP Media Center Edition. I had similar
problems putting this OS on another machine, but finally got a good install and it
is now running well.
The second system I am trying to put this on has an AMD 3000+ 64-bit Socket 939 processor
(Venice core), on a Chaintech S1689 motherboard, with a pair of Kingston 512MB RAM
184-Pin DDR SDRAM DDR 400 (PC 3200) unbuffered dual channel memory modules for 1GB
total RAM, with a Chaintech SA5500T2 Geforce FX5500 256MB DDR AGP 4X/8X video card.
I have tried several installs, and here are some of the error messages I get:
"A problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage to
your computer.
The problem seems to be caused by the following file: setupdd.sys
PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA"
Then, toward the bottom of the screen it says:
"STOP: 0x00000050 (0xF8000000, 0x00000000, 0xF77D03F7, ox00000000)
setupdd.sys – Address F77D03F7 base at F7794000, Date Stamp 41107c8f"
Also, when setup is loading files, several of them come up with:
"Setup cannot copy the file: rio8drv.sys" etc., etc.
On this last attempt to load MCE there were at least 20, maybe 30 files that came
up with that message, and I had to use the ESC key to get by them (after retrying
by hitting the ENTER key several times to no avail)
I have used two separate sets of original, legitimate CDs and I'm just getting lots
of problems. I've got several other sets of error messages that I have copied, if
they might mean anything to you.
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Gary Beeman
