I built a new home system to play some games and do some work on. This system contains:
Corsair 550w PSU
ASUS M4A78 PRO Motherboard
AMD Athlon X2 Black Edition (2.71Ghz)
2 G Corsair XMS DDR2 RAM (800mhz)
Nvidia 8800GT
Various case fans
WD 320 HDD
I’m using an old hard drive to install a fresh copy of Win on the PC. Everytime I try to boot up the Windows XP CD and re-format the drive, i get an error ‘file pci.sys caused an unexpected error (4096) at line 5964 in D:\xpsprtm\base\boot\setup\setup.c. Press any key to continue.’ I’ve disabled all power management, usb support, and the proprietary ‘cool ‘n quiet’ asus programs controlled by the bios to no avail. please, i’m at a complete loss as i can’t install my OS of choice!
