dannydiscus: I actually also have WinXP 32bit, but I'm not able to install it with either BIOS 2395 or 2431. I can go through all the text based parts, but after the first reboot, I get a blue screen just after the graphics are being shown with the 39 minutes left message. It's the same for WinXP x64, I already have installed, which cannot go any further into booting as the first graphics are being shown. With BIOS 2333 everything is rock stable.
I have also tried to do MemTestx86 1.70 (just released yesterday) with BIOS 2431, and this is also rock stable, so I'm pretty sure now, that it is not the RAM I'm hunting for anymore... I am at a loss of what to do now.
One thing I've read though, is it possible that you should connect ALL power connecters on the motherboard, both the 12 oin connector, the 4 pin connecter AND the molex connecter - I currently don't have the molex connecter connected to my power supply...
I really haven't got a clue as to why the system becomes so unstable.
