Building a new PC for my 7 yr old nephew.
Specs:
Asus AN7266-VM
Athalon 1400
256MB PC2100
Enermax Case and 350W PS
(2)WD Caviar 20GB drives
Assembled everything, powered up and POSTs fine. No problems with the incorrect CPU jumper settings that were printed incorrectly. But the first go round loading XP, it bombed out with a blue screen when trying to finish the installation. Restarted the install, XP finshed the install without any issues. Booted up the first time and once it gets into windows are start getting all sorts of error messages. Explorer.exe, multiple .dll file errors, etc.
Check hard drives with utility disk and they are good, reload XP again, no problems on install but hoses up in XP. Sometimes it will boot into windopws, other times it will lock up before it gets to the welcome screen. One occasion it rebooted itself and kept going in a loop, contantly rebooting itself. I dont think its the OS, or the hard drives. Now it sometimes boots fine into XP but errors out and sometimes it just hangs before it even gets to the welcome screen. Any suggestions?
