Bill,
when (!) it happens again, try finding and deleting either win.bat or
win.com. I think, if I remember correctly, the installer looks for these
files and barfs because it thinks it has an OS already and the type of
install disc is for a new pc. Alternatively, delete the windows directory
(from a DOS session) and reboot with the CD in the drive.
Norman.
