Problem: When installing windows xp, right before installation completes, computer will either reboot, or i'll get a blue screen which pops up and says something like "windows installation has shut down due to possible problems.... disable caching, and shadowing....." Followed by a STOP message with a list of numbers which are drivers i believe....
After that it says: "beginning dump of physical memory... physical memory dump complete"
What could be my problem?
I just bought a new motherboard
(http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=13-136-153&depa=1)
and a new CPU
(http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=19-103-506&depa=1)
I have 2 sticks of 256 pc 2100 ram, which have been working flawlessly.
I've tried installing without formatting on my old harddrive, and have since purchased a new harddrive (Seagate 160GB) and tried formatting/installing on it. Both reap the same results. I used a friends ripped copy of windows initially, and have also tried a completely legit windows xp cd. Both ended in the errors listed above.
My comp stopped working a month or so ago, and I ended up taking it to a local tech guy, who told me my motherboard had died. So while I was getting a new motherboard, thought I'd upgrade my cpu too. That's what has led me to my current crisis. I've talked with some friends about it, and I'm completely stumped. Someone please help!
