MSI K8N Neo2 Plat. Boot problem

I just got an MSI K8N Neo2 Plat. edition to replace my busted Asus A8V, and already I ran into some intriguing problems:

-It POSTs alright, but when it attempts to load the xp bootscreen, it justs reboots
-When I put the xp install cd in and rebooted, it won't read and go to xp setup.

I tried swapping the memories around and used different SATA connectors but nothing works.....help?

Edit: when starting windows in safe mode, boot fails after it tries to load a347bus.sys
 
Did you reinstall Windows after switching motherboards? You should really have a fresh install of Windows especially given the fact you switched from a VIA to a Nvidia chipset. There are bound to be incompatibilities in the drivers for the two chipsets. If I were you I would back up all your documents and other files and format the hard drive and reinstall Windows. I'll bet your boot problems will disappear.
