...try this ---- Download the upgrade to the desktop.
turnoff all scheduled tasks, disconnect from the net (if you have cable, then unplug the modem), unplug game controllers and anything that uses memory.
run the setup from the desktop

You can try 2 things...1) try coppying your disc files to a folder that you create and then open that folder and find the setup or exe file and then double click...or
2) you should do a virus scan (free AVG works well if you need an av program...and if it still wont install...restart your computer and on the boot screen tap f8 and then select safe mode without networking and try your install again from the disc or the folder...hope this helps your situation.....and double check that ram count : -)

To properly install Windows XP Pro SP2, you will need to do a complete reformat.

No RAM is of 384 MB.The problem is occuring due to ur RAM.RAMs are of size 128MB OR 256MB OR 512 MB like this.So change your RAM immidiately and solve ur problem..

Something is screwy with your RAM. But what about your video RAM? You said that your screen freezes. Does your computer freeze? Or is it a video prob lem?
