Is it an Intel laptop?

Just make sure you changed the SATA mode to IDE. It should boot all the way through. If not, then probably bad RAM.

What version of XP? SP1, SP2?

From what I recall there was no PCIe support in plain vanilla XP. This would give me a blue screen sometimes on some machines.

If you've slipstreamed in drivers isn't your CD SP3 as well? If not I would do that
