Trouble installing XP Pro

Installing XP Pro:

All new equipment:
P4 2.6/800FSB
512mb Kingston HyperX Dual Channel DDR400
Asus AGP ATI 9600se Video
3com PCI Modem
Intel D865PERLL mb
WD 7200, 80gig 8mb Buffer

Start install of XP Pro and get blue screen as it goes through initial process and saya "A problem has been detected....". The STOP message says:

0x0000007E (0xc0000005, 0x, 0xF89D6BD8, 0xF89D68D8)

pci.sys - Address F853A30D base at F8537000, DateStamp3b7d855c

I have the video card in and Modem. Drive is fresh and unpartitioned.

Should I take the modem out? Will there still be a concern?

Think I found my problem, removed the PCI Modem card and the setup seems to be going fine now. But, why would it do that? You think the PCI modem is bad?

1. The symptoms of a Stop error vary according to the computer's system failure settings.
2. The four parameters that are in the error signature information (BCPx), and inside the parentheses of the technical information for the Stop error, can vary according to the computer's configuration

Although the link I posted is about the upgrade, you will notice that it could be a myriad of issues.
All depending on hardware!!!
Yes, remove the modem and do a minimal install.
Also, try other ram.
Make sure Bios is configured properly, even trying defaul/safe settings.
We are definitely looking at a hardware issue, so we need to take it one step at a time.https://forums.windrivers.com/images.../2006/04/1.gif

Good!!!
Not necessarily, but who knows.
After install is complete, add the modem, then see if there are any problems with it.

So far so good. It is formating now.....I will try the modem once i finish the install and load all the necessary m/b drivers. I will run and test to see if it stays stable. I am keeping all the Bios setting as automatically configured. I went through them and everything seemed to be set ok for me.

Thanks TripleR

You're welcome,but you "fixed" it during my reply.https://forums.windrivers.com/images.../2006/04/1.gif
Where you at in NY?
NYC?
Do you know where Bloomfield NJ is?
Right next to Newark.
That's where I am from.
And, I hated NYC.
Nice to visit, or look at in my case: nice skyline, but here I am on a special island now.
I do miss the view, but that is all.https://forums.windrivers.com/images.../2006/04/1.gif

I spoke too soon. Another stop error!!! First it was doing the NTFS partition and then it was formatting. After formatting it said it could not complete the format press F3 to quit. I noticed that it partitioned all but 8mb of the 80gig drive and then it could not format. I resarted and now get Blue Screen again with Stop Error:

0x0000007E (0xc0000005, 0x80866c8e, 0xF89862E0, 0xF8985FE0)

Damn!!! Thought I was in the clear......

Any thoughts?

TripleR - I am about 85 miles north of NYC however I do work in Manhattan. Florida is nice, I go there often since my parents are there. It's a nice change!!!

Oh Hum...Back to XP hell......I am going to try another HDD, I have another new WD 120g SE to try.

I would expect bad RAM or a crap CD at this point. A ****tzled NIC also comes to mind.

You will always get 8mb unpartitioned space with xp, no matter what size of drive.

i have had this happen to me twice, and both times it was ram that was working at one point but did not like the new configuration.

so, whoever is running the book, put me down for ram.

this of course is going on the assumption that this is being installed from a legit original of xp pro.....

Probably bad ram, but try disabling pnp and set hd to cselect. XP and 2000. Both try to override some hardware inf's.

i bought a new mobo and processor and went to reinstall and it would error out on me just like you are saying. there can be a million things that can go wrong but if you have a cpu that you can popl in there just to see if it is what is causing the error it is worth the time. that is the only way i found out what was wrong with my system.

Thanks for all the suggestions, I am trying each one. I got 3 diferent blue screens. First one saying something with pci.sys so I removed the pci modem card, went good, then after the partition process it bluescreened me with the 0x0000007E and no other info, I know this can mean a range of possible troubles, then I got a blue screen with acpi.dll, what the &%$# ? So to add onto my troubles I said "Let me do a BIOS udate", well if I can get the damn thing to boot from the floppy I would!! Sees the floppy but does not boot from it. Changed the cable, changed the drive, changed the floppy, tested the floppy, tested the drive, forced the boot from floppy Only in BIOS, still will not allow me to boot from it. So looked to call Intel, but the want me to pay for a phone call regarding a possible problem with thier new board, NOT. I heard that something in the BIOS under REMOVABLE DRIVES may help, I am going to try that tonight but any other suggestions would be welcomed. I am also going to replace the RAM. I would replace the CPU but I do not have an extra P4 2.6c/800FSB or Northwood to test with.

You can get alot of errors from ACPI issues. I've bluescreened alot on install due to that.

You can check and make sure you have the latest bios version, but in the meantime - try hitting F7 when it says hit F6 for SCSI drivers. This will disable ACPI and perhaps allow you to finish your install.

You got that little nugget from M$ didn't ya ? How to Force a Hardware Abstraction Layer During an Upgrade or New Installation of Windows XP

That's all fine & dandy if the bios is designed for xp, if it ain't all holy hell breaks loose on its first 'boot', afterwards.

Best, simplest way & SURE way is to simply either enable or disable the ACPI (as appropriate) feature in the computers Bios before any install ;)


& edit

Some general advice ... pull every damn thing you can first in any 'troublesome' install, don't come to the conclusion that anythings 'wrong' hardware wise until you've got those lovely chipset patches in place, but yeah my moneys on bad Ram too ;)

OK, got fustrated and changed the mother board to a Abit IS7-E, started the install and recieved a Award Boot Block on boot up. So I managed to get around that and updated the BIOS and had no troubles with the floppy since. So started XP install and got a Blue Screen Again. So I replaced the RAM, took out the Kingston HyperX Dual Channel and replaced it with Corsair XMS Platnium Dual Channel. Install went great. No Problem and the machine is now complete and running great.

So it seems to be the RAM that was the culprit of issues. Not sure if the original Intel Board is bad but I think I will RMA it anyway with the Kingston RAM.

Thanks All for your suggestion and opinions on this topic.

:thumbs:

Yay ... 'bad' ram ... problem sorted :thumbs:

But neither the motherboard nor the Ram may actually be 'faulty', maybe (& most probably if not truely 'bad') the default memory timings were just too agressive for that memory/board combo, hopefully you won't have any problems returning the 'extra' stuff you've aquired ;)

I need help. I've encountered stop 0x0000007E (0x0000005, 0x80818308, 0xF9EE0C50, 0xF9EE0950) error during upgrading from win98 SE to win XP Pro SP2. I cannot complete the installation as the error pop up during installation. Any solution?

Asus P4S533-MX motherboard
Intel Pentium 4 1.7 Ghz
NVidia Riva TNT2 Model 64
Kingston 256mb 133mhz SDRAM

i've tried and change the memory with Kingston 266mhz 128mb DDR SDRAM, but the problem still exist. Help me...

Whereabouts exactly ? & any preceeding messages .. describe how far it got through setup before doing a bsod, & indicate whether you choose to upgrade from fat to NTFS or not..

Hello Guys !
Thanks to Confus-ed and Carpel for their help :) ;)
I had the same pb (0x7E on pci.sys at windows startup or from install cd, after mb upgrade to se7525gp2), and after many upgrades (bios, ...), tests, tries, activ/deactiv,... i had always the same bull**** pb :flame: ... And I've no xp with sp2 install, i've a lic for xp without sp ( :butt: )
Finally i have found your page, and i try an xp reinstall with repairation, with your tip (F7 key), and I 've chosen "MPS Multiproc..."... And it works (just a little pb during reinstall, a dll to unreg not found with a msgbox to hide a lot of times...) ... for the moment... i haven't tried yet the drivers update.
And now I have a problem with xp activation, i've totally forgot to backup my activation key(cf rockXP), i'm good to call ms... can't at all (except in safe mode) log on. :flame:

Re thanks to you a lot :thumbs:

Finally, it works fine but, after reinstalling xp in "MPS multiproc", it seems there is no way to change to ACPI, to activate acpi and hyperthreading :mad:... For all others drivers updates, there was no problem. To upgrade to this type of mb, the best way stay to install XP integrating SP2, but it will wait... It's already cool :)

If anyone knows a way to change to acpi multiprocessor in xp without reinstalling it, i am interested !
