HP Pavillion zv5445us shuts down during install of 5.3

HP Pavillion zv5445us shuts down during install of 5.3

Right after the screen when you can choose to disable ACPI or to boot in 
SafeMode (both of which I tried), after making a selection - it 
shutsdown.  I'm trying to install 5.3 from both floppies and CD1.  I'm 
dualbooting Win XP Pro using PartitionMagic8/BootMagic8 - but I do not 
think that is related.  My other Toshiba laptop is using a similar 
configuration, and works fine.

I saw in Google where at least 1 other person had this problem, but 
there was no resolution.  This is a new laptop, P4-3Ghz, 512MB, 100GB 
drive, LAN & Wifi, etc.

Anyone have success with the newer HP pavillions?

thx
