After 3 days of troubleshooting why i couldnt install any os's after a big error in windows xp. I have finaly found the problem. I will confirm this tomorrow when I can get some working ram from my cousin. I have 2 256mb ddr sticks and both give me probs i dont know what it could be, and it happened on two different motherboards. But the ram worked flawlessly since last sept. So last night rogerdugans found a memory testing util and I used it and well see for yourself. I think i need new ram.

EDIT: just to inform you guys the test still isnt done at this stage, but I figured it was an obvious factor that ive failed the test.
