Guest Chris White Posted June 17, 2008 Posted June 17, 2008 I installed a new motherboard in a computer running XP Home w all updates. The computer Blue Screened with a 0x0000007E. I booted into Safe Mode and installed all of the drivers for the new motherboard(USB/Video etc) Reboot and get the same Blue Screen Reboot into Safe Mode and it says I have to Activate and that I cannot do it in Safe Mode. I guess I should have tracked down the offending drivers/hardware before installing all of the new ones, but what do I do now?
Guest marx404 Posted June 17, 2008 Posted June 17, 2008 Re: New motherboard causes Blue Screen You can try updating the BIOS and checking all settings. Make sure you have the right network drivers as well. It is easier to just start with a clean set up, I found this out when changing mobos and getting the same problems as well. Best of luck. -- marx404 _________________ "Chris White" <no@way.com> wrote in message news:%23zkd$ON0IHA.2292@TK2MSFTNGP03.phx.gbl... >I installed a new motherboard in a computer running XP Home w all updates. > > The computer Blue Screened with a 0x0000007E. > > I booted into Safe Mode and installed all of the drivers for the new > motherboard(USB/Video etc) > > Reboot and get the same Blue Screen > > Reboot into Safe Mode and it says I have to Activate and that I cannot do > it in Safe Mode. > > I guess I should have tracked down the offending drivers/hardware before > installing all of the new ones, but what do I do now? >

Guest sgopus Posted June 18, 2008 Posted June 18, 2008 RE: New motherboard causes Blue Screen Try doing a repair install first, generally when replacing a MB, the best thing to do is not to boot to the HD first thing, boot to the install cd and perform a repair install. isolate your hardware drivers ie make backups first.

Not if you have on board audio and video and also happen to have an audio card and a video card. Same for a NIC.

Yes, a repair install is his next best step. I just did a major upgrade of almost all components and followed the XP procedure here and it worked perfectly. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/824125/en-us Bruce.
Guest Chris White Posted June 19, 2008 Posted June 19, 2008 Re: New motherboard causes Blue Screen I did a repair and got the same error after reboot. I'm still stuck, I might just have to reinstall everything.
