Automatic updates enabled? May have fucked you. Try using a friends computer to burn one of the 300x10^135 copies of xp on bit-torrent. The CD doesn't have any special shit on it, so any copy will work as long as it's the same edition.

I've had computers that were a shitfight to do an install on.  Keep trying, once it takes you should be fine.

low level format that bitch, then try a fresh install.

You might have some boot sector BS going on.

If it's a boot sector you can always use fixboot with the /mbr switch in the recovery console.You could also have a dead mobo or videocard. I have an old as dirt amd that I was going to trash. Found a bad capacitor on the videocard and swapped the card for a new one. Runs like a champ now.

as I expected, this is for sure a hardware issue. the "missing or corrupt file" shit has been coming around since 1996 to tell you you oc'ed too much, too much heat, not enough volts, too much bus ^, or your hdd ate feces
