I fixed it. I had to recreate the VM and choose 2000 as the OS. I had changed it in the setting, but it didn't seem to care as it was still running as Linux (what it was initially). Nevermind.

You mentioned that you were getting a bluescreen due to a bad RAM module, however since I'm installing in a VM I do not think this is the case for me. I am wondering if you might have some insight into this problem I'm running into.

You mentioned not to assign a driver letter to the system partition. I followed and finally landed with the installation being done on the setup drive itself. The drive letter was never assigned to the system drive and thats why it never appeared as a drive after the installation. Would you please suggest at which stage I must name the drive Thanks Kapsban Excellent guide!
