With that number of bad sectors, your HD is probably on it's way down the
tubes - get a new one, and try again

Further to Noel's message see MS KB 270593 - ""Error SU0325" When Windows
Me Setup Is 10 Percent Complete"
(http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=270593) where one of the reason given
for this error is "failing hardware" but another cause could be a
scratched, dirty, or damaged Win Me CD.
