Installing XP STOP 0X0000008E

I'am trying to install Windows XP Pro on a Athlon 1000 Pc.
But:
impossible to boot installation disk from CDROM
so I triede with a set of 6 floppy, with CD in CD drive.

Everything is ok but after the setup ask me where I want install and my answer, I have an error message:

STOP 000000E
(0X00000006,
808DBCD6,
FC98B3958,
00000000)


Could someone help me? I can't undestand the problem

Tanks

Just to clarify, in your post you give the stop error as 0x0000000E, but in the subject you have 0x0000008E

If its the latter of the two that makes a little more sense. This is the information about it:

The last paragraph in the section on resolving the problem is this:


Based on what you say you did, I'd say you told it to install on a partition that doesn't have enough room. You'll probably need to reformat and reinstall and be careful to choose the correct partition.

I'm a little curious why it's impossible for you to install from CDRom and why you had to use floppies. If you're CDRom drive is set as the first boot device in the BIOS the install disk should boot right up.

How large is your hard drive? Are you trying to use all of it? or just a partition? How big is the partition you're trying to install it on?

Hi, I keep getting the Blue Screen on my computer. The code says "STOP: 0x0000008E (0xC0000005, 0x80534DDC) i do believe their where a few more codes but i was not able to write them down fast enough. I would like someone to tell me what this code means and how i could possibly fix it.
My computer has a AMD Athlon(tm) XP 2100+ with 1.74 GHz and 256 MB RAM and two hard drives 1) 40 GB Hard Drive 2)160 GB Hard Drive.

ANY HELP WOULD BE GREAT!! THANKS!!

I think Microsoft rearranged the site without telling everyone again
ATNO your link sends me to a "Sorry page isn't here" screen.

Hmmm. Interesting. The link didn't work for me this time, but then when I clicked bug code 0x8e in the left frame it came up the same and now it works here too, as does yours. Oh well. MS probably changed something.

And for giordanie my answer is the same as it was before:

(Just read what I wrote above.)
