Windows xp gives this final error message on setup. FAtal error. An error has occuredthat prevents setup from continuing. One of the components that windows needs to continue setup could not be installed. Manifest parse error Invalid at the top level of the document. SET UP LOG ERROR SYS.DLL; Syntax error in manifest or policy file "C:\$WIN_NT$~LS\I386\ASMS\6000\WINDOWS\COMMON\CONTROLS\CONTROLS.MAN" on line 0. Please tell me what this is and how to correct. Thanks!

Are you trying to install windows xp? if so post more info about your system (processor,RAM,etc., are you trying to upgrade or doing a new installation?, if you explain exactly how you are doing it you just boot from the CD or you're trying to run the setup from the windows explorer?
