I apologise for the double post, forgot to put in the subject on the first one.

I am building a new Exchange 2000 server, and it fails install with an error 50. The rest of the server works good, it is just exchange that wont go in. I am using SBS 2000.
New box with a Gigabyte board,P4 2Ghz, 1024 RAM It runs W2K no problem, and had .NET working great during my testing phase. Now I have pretty well all SBS working except Exchange when I install it wont read the CD half the time, a retry gets the rest loaded and fails with system error 50.
Has anyone had this problem before, and if so know a workaround or a pointer as to what the problem is?

This problem can occur because Exchange Server must be installed to a folder with a name of less than 50 characters.
