did you wait for the PC to finish the installation and reboot?

That is the point of not clicking... nothing is supposed to happen...

The installation proceeds normally - the dialog box does not halt the install -
The installation proceeds with no feedback to the user, just as it normally would.

The only button on that error is "OK". If you leave it alone, everything works fine. If you click the "OK" button, the Nvidia drivers are corrupted.

I see, but i have a intel 945GM

And if i dont click anything nothing happens ofcourse.

Yes, that's why I said "don't click the button". If you leave it alone, XP setup will continue just fine and after reboot the drivers are all loaded correctly.
Nvidia 260-series drivers shouldn't have this problem (at least the beta works fine).

September is Harvest time, and we have a "bumper-crop" for you this year!
ALL NT5 (Win 2000, 2003, XP) DriverPacks have been updated to version 10.09 (except the CPU pack).
These updated DriverPacks are the culmination of hundreds, maybe thousands of man-hours in building, testing & bug-hunting by our dedicated DriverPacks Team.
Our team is made up of a small core of pack builders, a larger group of hardcore testers, and a small army of hobbyists.

"Why do you guys release packs so infrequently?"
I'm glad you asked. The answer is: Because we don't have enough hardware or people to help.
If you think you have what it takes to help us hunt bugs and make DriverPacks even more awesome than they already are, then post a request in our forums and you may just get accepted into the coolest bunch of people I've had the pleasure of working with and get access to our cutting-edge beta and nightly builds.
DriverPacks is driven by our insatiable urge to improve to perfection. We are ALL volunteers, from all corners of the Earth. We do NOT get paid for this work, but the donations we do receive go towards the maintenance and upkeep of the servers. Our costs are only increasing.

Please help us help you!

*Edit.
This is already in the DriverPack Graphics A changelog but I thought I'd post it here for more visibility.
KNOWN ISSUES:
Nvidia hardware/drivers may give an error at XP install stage T-33. Do NOT click the button! Install will proceed normally if you do not click the button.
