I am in the process of building a new system. I have installed my original

or get a BOD and shutdown. I can't install updates of drivers that might be
causing this as the installation trips over at the last moment (as above).
This is a bit chicken and the egg.
As this appears to be a driver issue, would buying a new XP 64 OS to replace
my very old 32bit version help?
Just slipstream sp2 onto your os and install it. You'l,l need a
running computer, and some instructions available on the internet.
A repair install might not hurt either.
