Thanks to jerome I believe the issue was tryin to install over the old copy since i fprmated the drive before the install this time and it worked. I probably should have tried that before sendin out the long message. My gremlin there.
I cannot use vbox since my pc cannot run it, unless there is an xp version. I prefer connectix virtual pc in xp and have the option to share files between xp and the virtual machine. Thanls to everyone for their replies and assistance. Great community.
