From: JayGee on 12 Apr 2010 01:32 Hello, After re-building my computer with a new MSI motherboard (with AMD Athlon II X2 and 2GB DDR3 1066 RAM) and a new 500GB hard disk and using only the on-board graphics I can not finish the Windows XP installation. You can see HERE (http://sites.google.com/site/jugracamsi/) some screenshots which I took during the installation procedure. I have an original OEM licensed Windows XP CD with SP2 which I could install easy on my old system. What is wrong? -- You can't blame gravity for people falling in love. A. Einstein
From: Andrew E. on 12 Apr 2010 23:36 With many MB & SATA or RAID,you need to install the SATA driver pressing the F6 option once you boot to xp cd,the drivers should be on a floppy from the mfg..Also,(quick format) wont work,1st delete partitions, create one,then let xp format & install..Also,in the BIOS,set 1st boot device as cdrom with xp,hd 2nd..Also,how does one download files during an install.

From: edfair on 13 Apr 2010 03:23 This is generally an issue with the video drivers. Normal solution is start in safe mode and install the drivers from there.
From: Jerry on 13 Apr 2010 16:54 An OEM CD can only be installed once - it is tied forever to the first system it is installed on and you've chnaged motherboard , etc which makes it a 'new' system.
