I'am trying to reformat a toshiba laptop with a windows xp setup disk. During the first step for reformatting (when there's a blue screen), the setup will run for about 3 seconds then stop and say a system file iastor.sys could not be found. What does this mean? I know it's not the CD because I used it only a week ago and it worked.

A problem with the CD, but if you said that it works, then probably a problem with the CD/DVD drive.
