New Motherboard - but XP won't boot

[ken]

I've installed a new motherboard but XP Professional won't boot. My XP is a
retail verison - NO OEM. I've completed a "repair install" (twice) as
recommended in posts found on this forum. Still XP crashes when the computer
boots. The only way I can get XP to load is if I boot from the CD, it the
computer boots fine. Thoughts? Suggestions?

Most likely, there is a motherboard driver disk you need to install.
