After XP installation, 0x00000001a error

Hello all

I ran killdisk on my hard drive and then did a clean install of XP. The
installation went fine.

I then installed chipset, video and audio drivers, and DirectX. After
that, I installed Windowsupdate to download critical updates. While it
was dowloading the first batch of 16 updates, it crashed and rebooted.
The event viewer had

"rebooted from a bugcheck: 0x00000001a"

I then finished the installation of those updates, rebooted, installed
SP 2 through Windowsupdate, rebooted, installed Norton Antivirus and
started running a virus scan. Midway through the scan I got another
crash and reboot with the same error as above.

My hardware configuration is:
Intel Pentium 4 2.4c Ghz (Bx80532pg2400d) W/512k Cache 800mhz
Abit Vi7 Via Pt800 Chipset Serial Ata150 Atx Form Factor 1xagp
Turtle Beach Santa Cruz Sound Card
Multiwave 256mb Pc3200 400mhz Non-Ecc Ddr Dimm
80 GB Western Digital Caviar SE Internal EIDE Hard Drive Wd800jb Eide
Ultra-Ata/66-100
Asus Radeon 9200se-T 128mb Ddr 8xagp W/Tv
Lite On 52x/32x/52x Cdrw W/Sw Ltr-52327/Sohr-5232s
Enermax Cs-5171lbfs-S Mid Tower W/350w Atx Power Supply
Sony 1.44mb Floppy Drive (Bare Drive)
Daewoo 19" Dynaflat 905df Monitor
Motorla Cable Modem

For the chipset I got the latest driver from VIA Hyperion 4 in 1
chipset drivers:

For the video card I got the first driver listed on
http://tinyurl.com/3wxk2
i.e. the driver that does not require .net, rather than the one that
does require .net
For the sound card I got the Microsoft signed driver (which is not the
latest unsigned driver) from Turtle Beach : sc_4161s.zip

I know I have yet to install some more critical updates from
Windowsupdate, but I doubt that's the problem.

Does anyone have any suggestions about what to do?

Much thanks,
Chris

It does sound like a driver issue to me.

I'd be happier getting the driver for the graphics card from Asus, rather
that Tiny.

I would assume the chipset drivers are designed for XP and you didn't get
any installation issues ?

The tinyurl (ATI) drivers are the latest ones, whereas the ASUS site
has older ones. I'll try out the older drivers though.

On the chipset site, I got a choice between Windows XP, Windows XP
64-bit, and Windows XP embedded. I chose "Windows XP." Perhaps I need
the 64-bit one. How do I check?
