OK right had enough and now back to XP.

I pulled my PC apart tried 5 harddrives in different configs! tried the ram in any number of setups. pulle all unnessasry Cards and drive out of the system. Changed the PSU tried diffenert ram from another PC used DOD level HDD wiping software to nuke the drives Reset the bios and still no joy! just will not install just crash on first boot up!!!

So pretty pissed off!!!

Now im going to have to install Vista on my parents PC as I don't have a spare copy of XP!



What really gets my goat is that it all installed fine and was running perfectly untill I had 1 BSOD and the computer crashed since then I can't fix it

now if it installs ok on my parents PC Arrrghhhh!!!

Thanks for the help...I hould have listened to Frog and given up weeks ago.. (note to self "listen to frog!")
