is it bad that some files (2) werent able to load when i tryed to install my windows XP?

the options were to:
Re-Try
Skip
Quit

i tryed retry 10times on each file but it didnt work, so i just skipped...
will this affect my computer?

depends on what the files are. It is more than likely down to a dodgy CD burn, or a damaged CD. Have you got any friends that you could borrow a CD of to complete your install?

It depends on files...
Of course, it's better to reinstall XP one more.
If you have another CD-Rom drive - it's better to do it using it. But also your XP CD may be damaged.
