Hey folks,
I've managed to create another new problem with my marvelous machine. I recently installed a Maxtor DiamondMax 9 SATA drive on my machine, and am trying to perform a clean install of XP on it. However, during the install process, without fail, I get a BSOD. This happens at the point "Setup is now starting Windows". I am able to load the 3rd party SATA driver without issue, but I'm not sure if its the right one or if this is causing the problem. The specs are as follows:
MSI 865G Neo2 MotherBoard
1GB of Corsair TwinX Memory (4 sticks of 256)
P4 3Ghz
Pioneer DVD-106s
HP 300i DVD-R
Gainward GeForceFX5900 Ultra

If anyone has any ideas, I would gratefully appreciate it. Thanks in advance!
