Meiapaul Posted May 7, Posted May 7, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options This is frustrating to say the least, and I would like assistance to find a solution. Wednesday, May 7, AM. Hi, First Unhide all files and protected opeating system files Then go the folder system32 and check whether mui and is a file or a folder. If you see a file named "mui" or "" with no extenstions then thats the problem.
Just rename the file mui and to mui. Issue will be resolved. Regards Deepak. All too easy. This worked like a charm. Thank you very much. Wednesday, May 7, PM. It wouldn't let me change the folder name. Now what? Sunday, September 7, AM. STAR, the advice given previously in this thread was specifically in response to the precise evidence posted by the original poster - it won't work for anyone else.
You need to provide all the similar detail for anyone to be able to advise you. Eject the disc from the optical drive then check the surface of the disc. In this case, try cleaning the surface. Get a soft clean lint-free cloth or a microfiber towel and gently wipe the surface of the disc.
After this, try installing again and see if it works. Use a lens cleaner like this one from Amazon: Endust for Electronics. Follow the instructions to properly clean the lens of the optical drive.
See if this works. You can use the bootable USB flash drive to install Windows on your computer. Hello everyone at TechyV! Thanks for clarification and I would appreciate solutions to this. Thank you kindly. It copies so many files but then randomly stops stating that it can't copy a specific file, and asks me to try again or skip.
The thing is, I've retried installing it and sometimes, files that can't be copied will actually copy other times I try. A lot of the time this file can't be copied, but other times i've tried, it has copied! But a different file pops up instead. I actually nearly got to the end of copying all files until one popped up when it was nearly finished. I skipped it and Windows began installing! I've just got a blue screen now. I think it's got to be something to do with inside the system itself.
Thanks guys, Matt. Seems the Cd is damaged or dirty. A frequent problem. The drive itself can be internally dirty on the reading lens. There are plenty of things you can do, such as gently cleaning the CD surface with appropriate materials, and using a special DVD drive cleaning CD. Examine the CD surface for scratches. Dont touch it! This can be just a case of finding the right place in the bios, or swapping the drives over in the cable connections.
Next option is to borrow a perfect OEM install CD and use your own sticker tag to register the install. Next option is copy the entire installation disk onto either the hard drive a separate partition or a plug-in USB drive and boot from something else, switch to the copied image and start the installation setup. If you dont know anybody that can help, only the first few options are open to you, and if you have no working OS on the PC now, that complicates matters too.
Since you are posting, you obviously have access to another PC, so you could look into the UBCD4WIN option, which is tremendously useful for all sorts of things you probably can't even imagine right now.
Why not read it up? XP did not come with SATA drivers, and there are hoops to jump through before it will install properly. Another factor is what service pack level is the OEM install at?
Hopefully it is SP3 otherwise you are already looking at lots of more problems, like a 1. I had this problem about five years ago. I suspected the XP disc, but it was kept in its sleeve, like new. It installed XP on first attempt, no problems at all. I think it was the laser failing in the old drive. Hope that helps.
If it works, then good for you. But if it won't, you can follow also what mike has said..
