Attempting a clean install of XP Pro. Half way through, it's looking for file "asms".
The file is on the disk but will not install. Is there any way to copy the file to a floppy? Thanks

Problems copying files or corrupted files during installation are
most often caused by defective, incompatible, or sub-standard hardware
(probably the same defective component that caused the crash in the
first place); in order of likelihood, either RAM, the hard drive, or the
motherboard. On very rare occasions the CD drive or installation CD is
the problem.
