I Put in a new proscessor,aXP2400 instead of my XP1900 and a new harddrive maxtor 80gig with 8meg cache and when I go to install windows XP it will not load it hangs on when it says it is checking out the harddrive space and then I get a bluescreen saying my harddrive may be croputed,but when I load windows Millennium it will loads and work fine. and when I try to upgrade to windows xp it does the same thing.

make sure your connections are good, and no overclocking...

You might have to hit fdisk too and wipe it clean...

Looks like if I had a bad connection it would'nt install win ME,I had a new harddrive that had no operation system on it,but WIN XP want load,it just stops when it says it is examineing the harddrive and then I get a blue screen,but it will load WIN ME with no problems.I have done tried formating and installing a full edition of WIN XP as well as a upgrade of WIN XP from WIN ME,but still it won't load.and I did'nt have nothing overclock.

If that's not the case, sounds like maybe a bad stick or RAM then or you bumped it while working with the rest of the system. Reseat your RAM and get one of those boot floppies out and test it...

When it gets to the XP loading screen what does it mean when the green is going across the screen before it loads,because mine is showing gray,is this saying there is a problem some where.and if so does anybody know what it means.because Windows XP will not load.but WINDOWS me will load just fine.This is driveing me nuts,:mad:
