Hi SRD75, Try the below methods: Method 1: Try if you are able to replace the CD Rom drive or if you can arrange for an external CD rom and proceed with the installation. Method 2: Run memory diagnostic tool and check the results. Link you may refer to: Windows Memory Diagnostic: Method 3: I would recommend you to perform complete format of the hard drive to rule out possibility of a bad sector or physical damage on the hard drive Regards: Samhrutha G S - Microsoft Support.

It’s usually either during the copying files phase (with the blue screen) or when the installation setup is going on. I was installing Windows XP the other day, and the installation failed on me. An error message appeared like the one below. Problem with Windows XP Fresh Install!! When I Install XP I Get A SETUPDD.SYS Error. Installation Failed: D: I386 asms. “An error has been encountered that prevents Setup from continuing. One of the components that Windows needs to continue Setup could not be installed. Manifest Parse Error: Invalid at the top level of the document. Press OK to view the Setup log file.” When I pressed OK this is what I got: Error: SXS.DLL: Syntax error in manifest or policy file ” D: I386 asms 52 POLICY MSFT WINDOWS NETWORK RTCDLL.MAN” on line 0 *** Error: Installation Failed: D: I386 asms. Error Message: Manifest Parse Error: Invalid at the top level of the document. *** Fatal Error One of the components that windows needs to continue setup could not be installed. Manifest Parse Error: Invalid at the top of the document. I thought that maybe the XP was corrupted and somehow was not suitable to install on my computer. I tried searching if anyone had the same problem as me during installing Windows XP but none seemed to have had this problem at the time. I started to think that maybe I did not burn the ISO image correctly because I was doing a fresh clean installation. From the, it stated that this issue may occur if the file that is on the Windows XP CD-ROM is damaged. I checked the XP CD that I burnt and it had a little scratch. I took a new CD-R and burn the Windows XP ISO image again. This time I am able to install without problems. A few other similar errors you might get during install which can relate to CD problems: • Setup cannot copy the file: filename.*** to retry press enter • Cannot copy filename.***: Data error (cyclic redundancy error) • Filename.*** is corrupt So if you have an error message during the file copying or install process, just try another CD or clean the CD if it looks dirty. I would say the majority of the time this will work. If your CD-ROM looks fine or you have just burnt a new disk and still experience an error during install, you could be looking at other issues such as a problem with the ROM drive.
