Solve : desktop hanging on install?

1.	Solve : desktop hanging on install?
Answer» i was having some ISSUES with my desktop earlier.....added a new hard drive and 1g memory stick. went to install windows xp home from DISK....it gets to "windows SETUP" with blue screen and just hangs.....any ideas? thanks Is the new drive a SATA? But you may have an issue other than the hard drive. Try the install with no USB devices. Also, try install with only the on BOARD video. maybe i shoud state what was going on.....was running out of room on original 40g....so install 160 as slave. ran for a couple weeks then had problems (wouldnt boot) added 1g memory and still wouldnt boot (gets to windows screen with scrolling BAR, then restarts). i decided to abandon the original hd and start new. the new drive is an sata.
