I am installing XP and get this error "an error occurred copying this file c:\$win_nt$.~LS\l386\msadox.dl...

I am trying to upgrade a year 1999 laptop with windows 98. It is a 700 mhz processor with 256mb ram and a dvd drive. When doing a full install with xp I get "an error occurred copying this file c:\$win_nt$.~LS\l386\msadox.dl_. A device attached the the system is not functioning". I have the option to retry, skip, or exit setup. Anyone know what this file is or have encountered the same issue? I wonder if this laptop is even compatable with XP?

ur system is compatable with xp... xp requires min 128 mb whic u have .. and min 1 gb empty space on ur hard disc.


that is a driver file... which helps in running the xp....





check if u hav attached any device to the system... like printer cable, usb cable, web cam ... any short of cable in ur system... then remove it..


and try to re-install...





or try to instal the xp from another cd..
Reply:Some installations of Windows'98 may be missing a required file. msadox.dll


The solution is to add the missing file to your system. You can get it here: msadox.zip

It needs to be put in C:/WINDOWS/SYSTEM
