    from my personal experiences 95% of the time SUWIN errors durring an install of windows is one of 4 things:

    bad ram
    bad cache
    overheating processor
    incorrect BIOS setting or a drive overlay

    Ok, so that is 5 things.....

    add to that some partition problems..
    MBR virus..
    scratched CD..
    unreliable CD-ROM (going dead)
    Caching problem (that's why you can run setup.exe /c )

    and a few other factors too...
