XP not booting

[John Cowan]

I have installed Windows XP and it installs properly.
However it will not boot afterwards. I have tried
everything. Help!

Format the drive and reinstall your previous operating system. Once booted
to that desktop, place the XP CD in the drive, at the setup screen, select
"Check System Compatibility." This may give a clue as to the source of the
problem.
