0x0000000A on boot after installation

[Guest]

I have Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005.

When installing Vista Home Premium, the installation goes fine but on first
boot I get a blue screen with STOP error 0x0000000A.

Clean installation and upgrade produce the same result.

Any suggestions?

It looks like your board has a built in Real-tek sound chip. Try going into
your BIOS and disable this, It fixxed the error for me. hope this helped.

If u dont know how to disable something in your bios, u shouldn't be
installing an operating system. OMFG

Go into your BIOS, and choose integrated peripherals. then scroll down untill you see AC97 Audio - Disable this - you should be able to boot in fine - worked for me too - very similar setup.

Not everybody uses shitty onboard sound.
