STOP Error on Install Repair

D

Hello!

My Pentium 4 / Intel Mobo would not power on one day, so I replaced it with
a Biostar NF520-A2 w/ AMD X2 64 4000+ Processor w/ 1 GB DDR2 PC4200 (2 X 512
in Dual Channel configuration 160 GB Seagate SATA drive). I installed my old
hard drive and put the Windows XP CD ROM in the drive and proceded to repair
the installation (as instructed at
http://www.michaelstevenstech.com/XPrepairinstall.htm under XP Repair
Install). The computer reboots, proceeds with the Windows XP Screen with the
moving bar along the bottom and then produces the following STOP Error:

STOP: 0x0000007E (0xC0000005, 0xF7591750, 0xF791042C, 0xF7910128)

BIOS Caching is turned off.
I can't even get in via Safe Mode.

I had another hard drive, so I installed a clean copy onto that one and it
works just fine. I have files on my old hard drive that have not been backed
up, so a clean install could be an option, but a tedious, long, drawn out one.

Do you have any suggestions?

Thank you for looking.

Slave the old hard drive to your new working install of XP. Copy your
data over. If you prefer to use the old hard drive for this machine,
burn the data files to CD/DVD-R (*not* RW). Then remove your temporary
hard drive, install your new drive, and do a clean install of Windows.
Repair Installs do not always work when the hardware is too different
and apparently you will need to do the clean install.

If you install the problematic hard drive as a second drive can you see
the drive to recover your data?

Try running HD Tune(freeware).

Download and run it and see what it turns up regarding the problem
drive.
http://www.hdtune.com/

Select the Info tabs and place the cursor on the drive under Drive
letter and then double click the two page icon ( copy to Clipboard )
and copy into a further message.

Select the Health tab and then double click the two page icon ( copy
to Clipboard ) and copy into a further message. Also do a full surface
scan with HD Tune.

What is the make of the problem drive?

Hope this helps.
