18 Months ago I bought a genuine Windows XP 2002. and I installed it with no problems,
I didn't like it so I put Win98 back.
Last weekend I decided to do a format and rebuild with WinXP. This time when I tried
to install XP it came up with an error.
A problem has been detected and Windows has been shut down to prevent damage to
your computer.
If this is the first time you've seen this stop error screen, restart your computer.
If this screen appears again follow these steps:
Check to be sure you have adequate disk space, if a driver is identified in the stop
message, disable the driver or check with the manufacturer for driver updates, try
changing video adaptors.
Check with your hardware vendor for any BIOS updates, disable BIOS memory options
such as caching or shadowing. If you need to use safe mode to remove or disable components,
restart your computer, press F8 to select advanced startup options, and then select
safe mode.
Technical Information:
Stop! 0x0000007E(0xC000001D, 0x8084006E, 0xF9E7BB9C, 0xF9E7B898)
I changed the BIOS settings, I disabled the cach and shadowing but that made no difference,
the same error appeared. The BIOS is the same as it was 18 months ago and it install
ok then.
The installation didn't get as far as the normal would you like to format to NTFS
it just got as far as loading the initial drivers.
So Win98 went back in, no problem.
