XP sees a hardware change and won't load. Fix it with an in
place repair install. See this MS article... http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;315341 How to Perform an In-Place Upgrade (Reinstallation) of Windows XP "Evol" wrote in message ... | just put a Asus A7A266 Ali Magic 5pci 1amr 1agp4x | sdram/ddr mobo in my computer ... i set up bios just fine | i think, yet when windows xp goes to load it just sits | and hangs right before the loading screen for xp ... plz | help thx .. peace out |

New Mobo
Greetings --
Normally, unless the new motherboard is virtually identical to the old one (same chipset, IDE controllers, etc), you'll need to perform a repair (a.k.a. in-place upgrade) installation, at the very least: How to Perform an In-Place Upgrade of Windows XP http://support.microsoft.com/directo...;EN-US;Q315341 This may also require re-activation. If it's been more than 120 days since you last activated that specific Product Key, you'll most likely be able to activate via the Internet without problem. If it's been less, you might have to make a 5 minute phone call.
