Hi

Are you trying to perform an 'upgrade' or 'clean' install of XP? Try the following links for some help with hardware issues:

"Windows Hardware Compatibility List"
http://www.microsoft.com/hcl/default.asp

"Windows XP Upgrade Advisor"
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/home/howtobuy/upgrading/advisor.asp

You could also have a look for a BIOS update on your motherboard manufacturer's web site.

The following article by MVP Gary Woodruff will help you:

"Upgrading to WINDOWS XP "
