Install XP only after replacement of drive
Had some interesting problem that was solved today.
Had this Foxconn via 890 based amd motherboard, Which froze in the middle of booting acronis trueimage cd/dvd and windows Xp pro install.
I've noticed that acronis DOES BOOT from Sandisk Usb drive. Replaced Sata nec drive to another one,Replaced memory - nothing helped.
sent motherboard for replacement, And similiar problem occured with new motherboard....Hmmmm
Connected old Ide cdrom drive which windows xp install went perfectly, And right now I am writing from this computer.....
Seems that there is some drive function problem with the nec sata drive I tried (AD-7170S)
