Hi all. I have just put together my new computer, after having to RMA a dead motherboard, andit posts this time. However, it will get past the bootup and bios screen, but then when I get to the OS selection screen, I select win xp and it then says it could not start properly, and asks me what procedure I would like to take (Start Normally, Safe Mode, Use last known configuration, etc.). Starting up windows normally causes the computer to restart immediately after it shows the Windows XP loading screen, with a quick flash of some blue screen with white text only at the top.
Does anyone know why its restarting, and what to do? I had an inkling that it might be the PSU not giving enough power, since im using a 20 pin atx connector on a 24 pin board, but its supposed to work. I'll switch those out and report back, but could the problem be somewhere in the bios settings or something else? Thanks for any help you guys can give
