Windows XP installation problem

hello,

I am trying to re-install XP to a Dell machine. Everything goes well until a certain point.

The installation proceeds as usual. first the files and drivers are copied from the CD to the computer. then the computer reboots to continue with the windows installation. but when it comes to a certain point (34 minutes left) it always gets stuck there, and nothing happens even if I wait for days.

I am sure there is nothing wrong with the CD's, because I tried 3 different CD's that I used before. It gives the same problem both with XP home edition and XP professional.

What might be the problem?

regards,
