I am trying to reinstall windows. I have just spend 6 hours using killdisk to clean format the HDD. I put in windows cd, formatting process is fine and then it restarts and just before windows installation begins it coems up with error message:
Isass.exe - system error
I/O operation could not read in, read out or flush files containing system image of registry.
What the hell is this? This has never happened before. First I admit I tried to reinstall windows just by putting in the cd and restarting but same error message came so i thought maybe i need to format the hdd properly but still this error message. I have win xp pro.
A quick google search reveals it may be a security process registry or something.
