Windows XP Installation Hangs at Setup is inspecting your computer’s hardware configuration

Been trying to install Windows Xp on one particular machine and it always stop at "Setup is inspecting your computer’s hardware configuration". After google from the internet, realise that Windows Xp is very particular when you try to install over an used disk - means you got some non-windows partition inside (example: Linux). To solve it, i use the ultimatebootcd to delete all the old partitions and it works after this.
