I've formatted probably 30 times in 4 days,traded in my motherboard for a new identical one..bought new HD..keep getting this error after a while.Before I go any farther,I just built this machine..I can install Win2k sp3..gather my drivers..but it doesn't take long before a reboot fails and I get that message above.Before I go and update my bios,I wanted to see if anyone out there has any gems of wisdom on this subject.Here's my specs:
-Win2k SP3
-Directx 9.0
-Nvidia dets Version: 43.45
-*not installing any mainboard drivers from the cd..I'm pretty sure they are dated*
-Phoenix -AwardBIOS v6.00PG(i think that it's 002 or something.)
-Soyo KT400 Dragon Ultra Black Edition
-AMD athlonXP 1800+
-Verto GeForce4 ti4200 64meg 8xagp
-SB Auidigy 2
-WD 120 gig 7200 rpm 8 meg cache
-Kbyte 512ddr 2100 ram
-Antec 450w power supply..12v
-yamaha 20x10x40 burner
-19" Viewsonic monitior
-Altec Lansing model 251 5.1 speakers
-a big ole' headache...LOL..everything on this machine is less than 2 weeks old except the burner...case ,monitor..the whole deal.
I was digging around newsgroups looking for similiar problems,but not finding much info...so after my last format I decided to pop in here so hopefully someone can help while I'm probably reformatting again
