Ok, I've read through the threads here. Looks like a bunch of people hitting around
the subject but not really coming up with a solution to fix the problem. Little bit
of history about the issue and the system I built that is having issues with this.
I have 2 identical systems. Both home built. Running AMD XP2800, 512 memory, DFI
Infinity II Ultra motherboard, 80gig WD hard drive, Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS, Mad
Dog GeForce FX 5200, floppy, Mad Dog CD-RW and another 52x CD Rom drive. Both systems
are sitting in a Thermaltake case.
Now here's the thing that blows all these theories outta the water. Built first system
and installed Windows XP Pro. System installed and runs fine. Purrs like a kitten.
Other system hangs on install at the infamous mup.sys.
No problem. Took hard drive from the system that runs beautiful and put it in the
other system. Still no dice. Hangs on mup.sys every time. Tried all the different
tips here to no avail. Put hard drive that hadn't been able to install in the good
system and got XP to install no problems, the good system still purring.
Any tech junkies out there got any bright ideas? Have swapped components from bad
system to good to see if it is a hardware problem. No dice
