re: xp installation error Friday, July 3, 2009 at 10:09 pm Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by OldManRiver (2 messages posted) One more note: The instruction at MickeySoft's site: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/311755 says cd C:\$win_nt$.~ls You need to open shell to command prompt @ c: and run "dir /w" as this directory name changes from install to install. Mine was C:\$win_nt$.~bt. If there is a way to edit in this directory and then continue the install, from the error this would be helpful, rather than all the trouble of copying and re-burning the CD after mod to the controls.man file.
