Got a P5LD2 Motherboard. Having trouble installing windows xp.

Fabulous · 3rd Jan 2006, 05:02 PM

Hey guys. my problems is that i'm not able to install win xp pro on this pc i'm building. the pc consist of:

P5LD2 Motherboard
BFG 6600GT OC 128MB
OCZ 1GB (2x 512MB) Gold Series DDR667
Maxtor 100GB 7200RPM S-ATA
Maxtor 30GB Diamond Plus 60 7200RPM IDE

The problem that keep poping trying to install winxp is a blue screen when everuything finish loading and stuff. Says something wrong with the hard drive or such. Keep getting these errors showing this:

If this is the first time you've seen this Stop error screen restart your computer. If this screen appears again, follow these steps:

Check for viruses on your computer. Remove any newly installed hard drives or hard drive controllers. Check your hard drive to make sure it is properly configered and terminated. Run CHKDSK /F to check for hard drive corruption, and then restart your computer.

Technical information:

***STOP 0x0000007B (0xF78D2524, 0x0000032, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)

Looks like hardware related issues. Make sure all of them are working properly, especially the RAM. What about the CPU speed? Make sure they are all correctly set.

yeah they all hook up nice and firmly. i dont know about the cpu but it didnt chip or anything while installing the cpu chip on the board and it shows it properly in bios as well. everything seems to works. just when it comes to installing win xp things just doesnt go my way.
forgot to add. btw the cpu on the board is Intel Pentium 4 630, 3.0 GHz, 2MB L2, 800 MHz FSB, Socket LGA775, HT Technology

The first suspect, RAM.

RAM? it seems fine detectable running fine. so what u suggesting? hmm i'm gonna try updating to the latest bios since i havent tried that yet. tell u the results afterwards.

Running fine doesn't mean they are not completely functional. Some broken bits will cause crashes like that. Try running Memtest.

Memtest? is that a program to run on windows? cuz my other computer cant support the ocz rams.

could it be the 100GB HDD not detected by Windows. perhaps try to install on the 30GB HDD instead? i know larger capacity HDD's usually need some newer drivers installed for it first...

my 200GB SATA Maxtor HDD had this problem..

Nope, you can either boot it off a floppy disk or a CD.

Use the thorough test. You need to check if your memory modules are okay, or if they are the problem.
