Please provide details of what you were doing when you got the message.
If you were attemting to upgrade from an older version of windows to Me, you may have a hardware or software compatability problem.
With the exception of the W95 upgrade from 3.1, it is always better to install the new OS onto a clean drive.
Your system will run faster, and have fewer problems.
If you were running windows update, I supect one of the files got corrupted when you downloaded it.
