Unable to install XP Pro due to stop/error messege
Hi everyone!
I am trying to install Windows XP Pro [it has neither service packs included] onto a new build and I keep receiving the same messege:
A problem has been detected and windows has shut down to prevent damage to your computer. Check to see if there is adequate disk space. Blah, blah, blah!
Included in the messege are stop numbers etc.
I am wondering if this is due to using the Maxtor SATA HD. I noticed in the Maxtor manual it says I must first load a driver? Says I need to load driver onto a floppy disc and do it that way?
I am not even sure where to find this driver. Is it on my ECS motherboard disc? Is this truly the problem?
Please, can somebody help me?
Desperate for some understanding.
