I have this problem with this Sony Vaio computer.

I put the cd in it ask me "Press any key to load from cd"

I do that

Takes me to the Windows Setup Page

I press "Enter" to begin windows setup

I wait like 15 min for it while it is "EXAMINING 152626 MB Disk 0 at Id 0n bus 0 on atapi..."

Then i see the End-User License Agreement and i Press F8 to agree

Then i press Enter to Install on a Partition with (152626 MB free SPACE)

And it says "An error occurred while Setup was updating partition information on : 152626 MB Disk 0 at Id 0 on bus 0 on atapi [MBR]. Setup cannon continue. To quit Setup, Press F3"

And i try to Delete the Partition space it does the same thing.

I'm at a lost right now if someone can guide me that'd be a great Help.
