Windows Reinstall

I'm attempting to reinstall Windows ME, it takes me to the Windows ME wizard setup and it copies my information, then saves it, etc... Everything runs fine until it gets to the process of "copying windows to your computer." At this stage, after a certain amount of % (20% the first time, then 65% the second time), it gives me an error message: "Application Error SUWIN caused a General Protection Fault in module VERX.DLL at 0002:24AE" It gives me the option to ignore it or close the application, but it won't let me click ignore so I eventually have to click close and the install starts all over again. Any advice? Thanks

Geez!! I got the same exact problem SUWIN the last two days I tried to reinstall WinME. It is on a Presario laptop.
And then I tried to install to extended partition D: , it failed saying that it's caused by some kind of NTFS file problem or other compression software that may be running. Anybody knows what's the problem? thanks
