Hi,
I'm having trouble installing Windows XP pro SP2 to Dell laptop. I have Latitude E6500 with Windows Vista Basic pre-installed and i need to install XP instead. I updated BIOS from A10 to A11 and while installing i'm getting BSOD:
STOP: 0x0000007e (0xC0000005, 0xF748E0BF, 0xF78DA208, 0xF78D9F08)
pci.sys - Address F748E0BF base at F7487000, DateStamp 3b7d855c
I looked around and there were few post about this but dating 2-3 years ago. I'm pretty sure things are changed since then. Another thing that i found out is that 0x0000007e error might mean that BIOS is not compatible with XP (taken from Microsoft site). The recommended solution is to get latest BIOS version (which i already have). Does anyone have similar problems or the only solution is to find Dell bios that is compatible with XP which probably means i need to downgrade mine.
Thank you for answers.
