Wind*ws Xp reboot @ welcome screen?
Hey everyone!
Here is the skinny:
I have an ASUS A7V8XLAN with an Athalon XP 2200+
I recently had a hard drive falure (a hard crash meaning hardware fault) I believe this may have killed my mobo.
Here is whats happening
When I boot into wind*ws the machine will load until the welcome screen and then restart. I have tried to reinstall the OS, I even went as far as to swap the Video Card (Radeon 9000 Pro) PSU (Thermaltake Silent 400) and drives to a different mobo and pr0k. It worked fine.
This ruled out the PSU and Video Card.
I tried the same mobo again only I reloaded wind*ws XP on a brand new drive, with brand new ram, and a brand new processor.
Same thing. Only this time (with the Duron pr0k) I made it into Wind*ws and thought all was well. Until I rebooted and it started to do the same thing again.
I have already ordered a new Mobo (ASUS A7VN8-X) So Im just trying to ease my mind here. Mind you the board worked perfect before the Hard drive failed.
