Hey guys, I'm new here and I need some help with a GIGABYTE GA-Z77X-UD5H, I'm very experienced with fixing and building computers. I have been pulling my hair out and have not been able to fix the problem I am having. I just built my new system everything is the same except the Hard Drive and Motherboard. Everytime I try to install Windows XP as soon as it gets to the starting windows part it sits there for about 8 seconds and then gives me the generic BSOD, no explanation for the error. I have updated the bios with the newest one after trying to make it work first, turning off settings like the extra unused SATA ports and internal graphics, trying different ram 1866 and 1600, 8GB pair and a 4GB pair and hard drives, different SATA cables, resetting the bios, it does it every time no matter what I do. I have a 650W Antec power supply, Intel i2500 i5 CPU, 3GB Video Radeon HD Card which works flawlessly with my older motherboard, so I know it's not the Video Card, Ram, Power Supply or CPU. I'm assuming it's a bad motherboard I also see A0 or AE on the LED display, Any suggestions?
