Unable to install XP
Hi,
Having interminable problems trying to install XP SP2 on a new build using an Asus P5B Deluxe/WiFi, Intel E6400, 2GB Corsair TwinX-Cas4, NEC 5170A DVD attached to the JMicron controller, and Maxtor DiamondMax 80Gb HDD (attached either to JMicron or ICH8R). Managed to get into the initial stages of the install by setting the JMicron to AHCI mode and supplying the driver on diskette via the F6 option. The install program allows me to partition the HD but as soon as I press enter to begin the actual file transfer I get a BSOD naming an error in setupdd.sys. With the HD attached to the SATA port of the JMicron the XP installer doesn't find a HD so this is no use. Cheers for any help Mat |

Unable to install XP
Try setting the memory at a lower clock speek. I have heard of the
TwinX memory causing such problems. Use the Motherboard BIOS to lower the memory clock rate a notch or two. wrote: Hi, Having interminable problems trying to install XP SP2 on a new build using an Asus P5B Deluxe/WiFi, Intel E6400, 2GB Corsair TwinX-Cas4, NEC 5170A DVD attached to the JMicron controller, and Maxtor DiamondMax 80Gb HDD (attached either to JMicron or ICH8R).
