I assume you are installing from a CD Easiest way to find out which file is corrupted is by trying to copy the contents of the cd into the hard disk, say 10 at a time. While a corrupted file tried to be copied, you get an I/O error saying "cant read from specified device" , the copy is aborted. This way you will know which files are bad and those you can download from the net. If more files are bad, this may be a bit labourious, but it works! I dont know if there are people who remember which file is being copied at what stage of installation. Post back with results, -Kailas Shastry
