I'm building a system and its not booting into Windows XP.
Here are the specs:
-ASRock 929 dual SATA board
-Antec 400W PSU
-Athlon 64 3200 Venice cpu
-6600 GT (128mb)
-Corsair Value Select 1GB (2x512mb) DDR400 RAM
What happens is its posting and getting to process of starting Windows and it restarts.
I suspected RAM at first, so I:
-Removed 1 stick
-Placed that stick of RAM in several slots, trying to boot each time
-Tried my backup Kingston value ram (DDR400) the same way, no luck
I tried booting into safe mode and it restarts when agp440.sys loading (I have selected PCIexpress in the BIOS).
The hard drive I'm using was in a different system and still has XP on it. Is it possible I need to reinstall XP to get the system to boot? Any other ideas?
