.CAB files fraudulently corrupted.

I recently installed Windows XP Pro and had no problem with it for about a week; then I tried to install Baldur's Gate II and it told me that certain files didn't match those in the .CAB file.

It installed perfectly on my other drive, so I switched back and re-installed it on Windows 98... Perfect, not a hitch.

Since then I've installed Service Packs and such, but .CAB files are regarded as 'corrupt'. I thought Service Pack 1 would fix this, but that doesn't install either.. I think that may be based around a .CAB file too, as it's rather a sizable installation.

Any ideas are much appreciated.

Is that correct? You only have 32 megs of RAM? You really need a minimum of 256 in my opinion.
