Mem,Dual 160G Seagate Barracuda HD's,7800 GT Video Card,AcBel 500w P.S.,Samsung LCD Monitor. I've Got it all together run thru Bios to make sure all my goodies are seen. I put in the XP Pro cd it satrts to do it's thing checks config all that stuff, starts in loading a bunch of files and then it says starting to load windows... Then the Blue Screen comes up Saying..."A problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer. If this is the 1st time you've seen this screen restart your computer if not follow these steps: Check for Viruses on computer,remove any newly installed hard drives or H.D. controllers. Check HD to make sure it is properly configured and terminated. Run CHKDSK /F to check for HD corruption and then Restart. Techincal Info: ***STOP: 0x0000007B (0xF7C8263C,0xC000034,0x00000000,0x00000000) The systems is totally built of new components no refurbished parts I can't see there being viruses on it, All the connections are good and correct. How to I get to the spot to do the CHKDSK /F ? And if that doesn't do it then what can I do to get this baby running? Thanks in Advance for any and all help on this. I'm a real novice and basic is the key for me.... -- I don''t know what to do cause I don''t know what I''m doing |

Open the BIOS,advanced,set youre cdrom with xp cd in it as 1st boot
device,make youre hd 2nd for now,save and exit BIOS.Boot to xp cd,select install xp,new copy,delete the partition(s),create one,then xp formats and installs auto.Also,if youre hd is SATA,set for this in the BIOS,also press F6 option when booting to xp cd.

Sounds hw related, double check all conections, set bios to defaults,
excepting perhaps sata / raid options which I assumed by 'dual 160gb seagate' you mean your using. Use a single ram stick. The only way to check the hd's would be via Seagates bootable floppy hd checking utility, available on their site. Also if indeed they are sata drives are they sata1 or sata2 and does your mobo support it if sata2 If you had to use the F6 option to install raid drivers your initial installation would have reported no hd's but check the mobo manual "Freddo" <Freddo@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:2682E316-2084-471E-BDC0-6CF827A57054@microsoft.com... > I just built a new system basics are P4 3.0 Ghz,ASUS MB,2x512 Sticks Crucial > Mem,Dual 160G Seagate Barracuda HD's,7800 GT Video Card,AcBel 500w > P.S.,Samsung LCD Monitor.
