I worked on a machine loading Win XP Pro, AMD CPU,
SB Live Value sound card, and a MS serial mouse.
During hardware detection, it froze, so shut down, turn
back on, freezes again, etc. Took out all but video card,
it finishes. All cards but sound card work fine as well when
put back in. Can't get the machine to boot with SB Live in
place, even if I pre-load the drivers for it. Replace the Serial
Mouse with a PS/2 mouse and the SB Live now works again,
but takes a totally unbelievable amount of time to detect
and install. Is a serial mouse that bad for XP? Or a SB Live???

Any other problems of this sort lurking?
