First off I tried formatting my hard drive. I kept on getting an error after WindowsXP loaded and I could never set it up to start initalizing the install. The error I recieved was:
Stop: C0000221 Unknown Hard Error
\SystemRoot\System32\Ntdll.dll
After numerous attempts I just took the hard drive out and installed it on another computer. Everything went fine no problems what so ever. So after Windows finish installing, I swap the hard drive to my original computer. Now when it boots up It will get to a blue screen and restart automatically before I can even read the BSOD. I cant start in safe mode either. Does anyone know what the problem may be? I can't figure it out. I only left one stick of ram in there. I don't know what the problem is; I've been trying to get this PC to work but something always seems to go bizzerk.
have the hard drive in another computer and its booting up fine.
I really have almost tested my whole computer. Only thing left to check is the processor and RAM, which will be costly to replace. I am unsure if its the ram, I left my computer on all last night till this morning 10hrs and it ran fine; although I wasnt running CPUburn.
I am going to run memtest86 again tonite and see if I get any errors. Last time I check there was a lot of errors. I will report back later on with results.
I tried running memtest but the computer will restart even before the program loads..
I know this is a farfetched request, but does anyone have a spare processor they can loan me to test out?
