I had an old system running a BX440 motherboard and XP PRO
formatted with FAT32 file system running fine. I replaced
my motherboard with an ASUS P4GE-V board and a P4 2.4 ghz
processor with 256 meg of PC2700 ram. On initial boot up
the operating would not run so I formatted the drive and
reinstalled XP. It started up fine. I installed the
necessary motherboard drivers and XP was up and running. I
did a windows update and downloaded service pack 1. The
download completed and installation proceded. Before
completion, the pc rebooted without any notice. After
restarting the blue chkdsk screen came up and truncated
lots of files. After chkdsk completed the windows XP boot
screen appeared for a few seconds. A blue screen briefly
appears and then the system reboots. It will continue this
cycle indefinately. Even when booting in safe mode, a
short list of driver lines appear and then the
system reboots. Once again I reformatted the drive,
installed XP, downloaded SP1 and it happened again. What's
the deal???
