try coping the OS flolder to the hdd and run setup from there , for help on how go to http://www.mesich.com/ select How-tos section.
the problem could be 1) bad cd drive or cable 2) bad cd disk 3) bad memory 4) bad hdd 5) anything and every thing

bad cd drive - i have installed win me. & running fine. so no chance of bad cd drive.
bad cd disk- i have 2 cds . both are not working at the same time ? no chance.
bad memory :- win me is showing 64 mb ram. so i guess ram is alright ?
bad hdd- how come win me got installed by the i installed win xp prof. too on the same hdd and same configuration.
plz some one help.........

Namaste Neeraj :)
bad cd disk- i have 2 cds . both are not working at the same time ? no chance.Fair Chance. Unless they are new or both have just been tested good
bad memory :- win me is showing 64 mb ram. so i guess ram is alright ?
oops! not quite that simple. I cant explain it, but OS setup can have problems with ram even if the OS manages to run on the same ram.Your best bet I think would be try a third CD or check if those 2 CDs work well on another machine. Also someone suggested you copy the win98 setup files to the hard disk and try again. Give that a shot too and keep us posted,
Good Luck :)
