Ok i just got a new mother board and cpu for christmas:athlon xp1900+ and msi k7t266-ru

i have been running windows 2000 for the last 2 days and i just installed a new fan it boots then i go into bios everything works ok and everything looks good adn then when i go to boot to win 2k it freezes at startup. I have tried going into safe mode and everything and i dont know what to do. Does anyone know what could cause this but right before i shut here down i installed a divx codec could that be the problem and if so what should i do? But i cant bot at all even in safe mode. please help me?

ok u just installed a new fan? could something be lose, like cable on drive not tight in, or ram, u can check the basics first then boot into your 2kcd and hit f10 at the setup screen, then do a repair install if nothing else. for future use go to run box and type ntbackup, and create a ERD emerg repair disk with a reg backup(all on 1 floppy) and if u have problems just repair to the floppy last ERD setup. congrats on ur xmas score, i got some slippers
