My Windows XP Professional will not install

[Earlyadopter]

After I get through the setup and into the file copy
portion of the installation, I get numerous conditions
of "setup can not copy file: c_932-nls, d3dim.dll and so
on. The installation fails. The one thing I noticed was
that I was not directed to the Microsoft Website prior to
installation. It appears that the OS will not load
without first contacting the Microsoft Website. What can
I do to get this OS installed?

You can try cleaning the disk to make sure that it's not dirty. Also,
if you're doing an upgrade from a previous OS, try copying the i386
directory from your CD to your hard-drive, then run winnt32.exe
from within the i386 directory. Of course, this is an immediate fix
and you should try getting a new copy of your CD from Microsoft.
