Hi,
I am just coming to the end of upgrading my pc and something seems to be going horribly wrong that I can't seem to get past.
New components :
M/B: Asustek AM2 nForce 570 SLI ATX Audio Dual Lan DDR11
Processor: AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800 Socket AM2 2GHz 1MB 1000FSB
HDDs: Seagate Barracuda 7200.9 80GB S300
Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 250GB S300
I seemd to have the BIOS setup correctly, although at the moment I have had to unplug my CD-ROM and 250gb HDD whilst trying to get it working.
I attempted to install XP on the newly formatted 80gb HDD and it got through to the stage of copying files, the windows logo came up, then it told me to reboot. On reboot it got the windows logo, then the dreade blue screen flashed up with the following message :
"A problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer.
If this is the first time you've seen this Stop error screen, restart your computer. If this screen appears again (it did, 3 times), follows these steps :
Check your computer for viruses. Remove and newly installed hard drives or hard drive controllers. Check your hard drive to make sure it is properly configured and terminated.
Run CHKDSK /F to check for hard drive configuration and then restart your computer.
Technical information:
*** STOP: 0x0000007B (0xF7C7A63C, 0x0000034, 0x00000000, x00000000)"
I don't know how to run CHKDSK? And I'm wondering if its an issue with my 80gb HDD?
My BIOS is now setup to boot from my 80gb HDD as opposed to CD (XP) but I've left the XP CD as it hasn't finished installation.
Completely at a loss at what to try next. Can anyone help please?
Thanks, in advance
Marv
