Im trying to help a friend with his upgrade........i figured starting from a clean install would be the best thing......so i went about his computer the same way I did mine (mine is working fine on XP Pro right now)
I formatted his hard drive and popped the windows xp cd in. It booted from the cd once I restarted after format and went about its business copying the files and everything. All of a sudden in the middle of the installation I get a blue screen and the following error:
IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
then it give me a bunch of letters and numbers about the stupid error........I've tryed installation about 3 times and i still get the same error....
WHat does this error mean? any reccommendations?
