Shutdown during OS Install on Toshiba M45 Series

edited July 2009 in Science & Tech
Has anyone encountered a problem during re-installation of OS on a Toshba Setellite M45?
I am re-installing OS from a Set-up disk via CD-ROM. It starts-off very nicely by re-formatting the drive, loading drivers, Starts Windows XP, gives me a message that it has 39 minutes to finish the installation.
However with 34 minutes left to go, all of a sudden shuts down and goes back to a point of restarting windows with the same message "Starting Windows with 39 minutes to finish the installation".

To troubleshoot this problem i had done the following: replaced the Hard Drive, Re-seated the Memory Simms, Cleaned the heat synch - but none of these seem to helped.

Anyone has a suggestion?

Thanks in advance...
