in my past experiences using a different copy of the operating system sorted out the issue .....or try using an external DVD rom or make a copy of your disk and run the new copy on the sytem

I also have a similar problem on my Dell D630 laptop. It doesn't have OS installed on it and as I triy to install xp, it finishes the formatting process, restarts to complete the setup. But then, it only ends up restarting over and over again. Changing the SATA operation field didn't help.

Go int the BIOS setup and set the hard drive to ATA compatible (not RAID or AHCI) mode. F2 at powerup.
