More than likely there is a scratch on the CD that you have, either that or you didn’t refortmat your HD correctly, or finally the HD is beginning to fail.
Check with your hardware vendor for any bios updates (have updated bios to latest version)
Disable cahing or shadowing memory (have disabled the memory caching)
If you need to use safe mode to remove or disable components restart your computer and press F8 to select advanced start up options then select safe mode (there is no safe mode as there is no OS installed)
