I've got a motherboard that i'm running into some problems with (2nd freaking one in a week). The only things installed on the board are the chip, 1 stick of ram, and a videocard.
I start the install process for Windows XP. and it goes through the motions. Upon getting to the 36min part of the "installing devices" it bluescreens out and gives me this message.

Well the first time i figured it was a mem problem? So i did alot of reading over at AMDMB.com and realized it doesnt like some stick configs..and slots. So i have (4) 256mb PC2100 Crucial. 2 of them were purchased this week...and the other two have been running in a machine since 3 months ago. I tried various configurations....nothing works. 1 stick, 2 sticks, different slots...same thing. So obviously thats not a problem.
Well i thought it might be the video card, so i changed the Radeon 8500 AGP card out for a Matrox G200 PCI 8mb card....same deal! So obviously it's not the AGP or PCI slot or the cards themselves (which i already knew).
So now i'm freakin stumped. I've played with the AGP and Ram timings in the computer. It's running completely stock...no overclock.
A FEW times, When the OS doesnt bluescreen, it gets a little further in the install and then starts spewing erros all over the place-
"Windows Could Not Load the Installer for the Display. Contact Your Hardware Vendor for Assistance"
so you press OK and it then says
"Windows Could Not Load the Installer for the Net. Contact Your Hardware Vendor for Assistance"
"Windows Could Not Load the Installer for the CDROM. Contact Your Hardware Vendor for Assistance"
"Windows Could Not Load the Installer for the Battery. Contact Your Hardware Vendor for Assistance"
"Windows Could Not Load the Installer for the (cant remember). Contact Your Hardware Vendor for Assistance"
Then it either bluescreens with that same error, or reboots all together.

It's also not the chip...cause the chip was pulled from a running perfect computer.
That is ALL their is.
Also i tried installing the RAID drivers using F6 (even if im not using RAID) and it still bluescreens..
ANYONE? Or do i need to send this motherboard back also. =(

It's 300watt AMD approved. I've got the same PS running my epox w/ 1800+, 2 SCSI HD's, cdrw, DVD, 512mb ram, scsi card, sb live, nic card, radeon 8500, floppy. I doubt thats it also. I'm running the very minimal on this other one. Plus it;s been used before with similar setups
