Problems with installing Windows XP

I had some driver problems that I couldn't get rid of in the usual ways, so I opted to back up data, format hard drive, and reinstall Windows. However, now that I'm already committed, it's only natural that I encounter mysterious problems: This is the message I get:

"The following value in the .SIF file used by the setup is corrupted or missing"

WTF? Anyone have a clue?
