I am having difficulty installing Windows XP 64 Bit to my custom PC, Always getting BSOD.

My PC Specs

Asus Extreme VI Maximus
4770k
1 SSD
1 2TB WD HD
32GB Ram(4x8GB)

Disc

Windows XP Professional x64 Edition
June 2006
Systems
Student Media / Work At Home Media

After entering the disc from boot, I get a normal blue screen like the following

Windows Setup

At the bottom I see progress such as

...
Setup is loading files (Video Card)
. ..
...
Setup is loading files (FAT FILE SYSTEM)...
...
Setup is starting Windows

It is always after Setup is starting Windows that the BSOD as follows appears.

A problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer.
...
Technical information: ***STOP: 0x0000007B,(0xFFFFFADE5DE5D8323C0,0xFFFFFFFFC0000034,0x0000000000000000,0x0000000000000000)

Some things I have tried to fix this

  • I have tried unplugging the SSD
  • Unplugging the HD
  • Removing 3 of the ram sticks leaving 1 8GB
  • Removing 2 of the ram sticks leaving 2 8GB
  • Putting the ram in different slots
  • Moving the HD/SSD and CD drive to different SATA ports
  • Removing the Overclock settings on my motherboard.
  • Secure boot is off.

Any thoughts on this?

Error code 0x7B means inaccessible boot device. This is due to the fact that XP does not have a driver for your storage controller. You probably have a SATA drive.

You have 3 options here:

  1. Place the drivers on a floppy disk (yes, a classic 3.5″ floppy) and use the F6 key during Windows setup to load the drivers from it.
  2. Slipstream the drivers into the XP media and re-burn a custom XP install disc (instructions on Google for this are plentiful).
  3. Place the SATA controller in IDE mode in your BIOS. This is the easiest solution.

If you get this error, its usually because you have setup your harddisk to be SATA RAID, but setup was unable to find the right driver and the BSoD is caused because it tries it with default drivers and fails.

During setup press F6 and load the required SATA RAID drivers.

alternatively (but only if you really can’t) you can change to not use the RAID controller, but instead use it the SATA connectors without any form of RAID. This means the RAID controller is deactivated and certain speed optimizations are not in effect slowing things down.

I should question you on the why of wanting XP on such a machine. But disregarding that:

What you need to install Windows XP on a newer machine is to update XP installation media first.

There’s a lot to be said about all the steps of this, but what you basically need is to integrate these driver packs,

http://driverpacks.net/

into your installation media, or get a .iso with the driver packs already integrated.

They have a tool on that website that should help you integrate the packs easily.

Uncheck use host I/O cache. works with IDE controller. I only had to do this for windows XP x64 professional.

Blue screens are very often linked to memory problems. (they can be more but most common) I would recommend running a memory test. Try this — > http://www. memtest86.com/

Run it and see if it comes across with any errors. If it does then replace your memory and if not then work down the line of components that could be affected. Blue screens are always shown when there is a hardware problem so you basically need to keep testing components until you find the bad guy 🙂

I locked out my DVD/CD drive and installed the program successfully from a old CD drive using a non-SATA connection. Worked.

I am receiving an error while starting Windows XP on my ten year old computer (D845PEBT2) that says

Windows cannot start because the following file is missing or corrupt: 
Windows\system32\config\system 
You can attempt to repair this file
Run setup from CD
Press 'r' on the setup screen

In the safe mode and every other mode that is available in the list of startup options, I receive the same error message.

I tried to install another operating system (Windows 2002 SP2), but when the setup is running, the files are copied successfully from the CD and when it says trying to detect previous operating systems, I receive a blue screen that says:

A problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage 
to your computer. 
BAD_POOL_CALLER 
Check to make sure any new hardware or software is properly installed     
Remove BIOS memory options such as caching or shadowing 
STOP: 0x000000C2 (0x00000043, 0xC2C5A000, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)

Very good chance that this is bad memory, and not a software problem at all.
Try running a memory test tool, like MemTest86.

Sounds to me like a hard drive problem .. may be possible to recover by booting using a ‘Live’ CD with ‘Parted Magic’ & doing a complete format ..

Blue screen when installing Windows XP

Many users encountered this error during the installation of Windows XP. The manifestation of this error is that a blue screen of death (BSOD) suddenly appears when installing Windows XP, but it is not excluded the next time you start it. Usually, after such an error, the PC reboots, and everything repeats again. Typical for this error is its code 0x0000007b, which is issued after the word STOP in the last line:

Let’s try to figure out what this error means when installing Windows XP.

Content

  1. Causes of errors
  2. Viruses in the loading sector
  3. Faults associated with hard drive drivers
  4. Causes of the AHCI on IDE
  5. of the Disk devices

The occurrence several, and for the most part they are related to the operation of the PC disk subsystem. This includes:

  • Presence of viruses in the boot sector;
  • Faults associated with hard drive drivers;
  • Malfunctions in the disk devices themselves.

Viruses in the boot sector

When installing the OS, this is the least likely cause of the blue screen of death with the code 0x0000007b. The fact is that it can only occur if the user forgot to format the system partition before or during installation. Formatting the system disk is a mandatory requirement when installing any version of the OS. Moreover, getting rid of viruses in this way is much easier and more reliable than fighting them with antivirus software, especially in the absence of an installed OS. To format the system partition during the OS installation process, you should reboot and start the installation, then, when prompted by the wizard to select a partition, specify the desired partition, delete it, then create a new partition in the unallocated area, and then format it. nine0003

Hard Drive Driver Issues

Blue Screen of Death code 0x0000007b is a sign that the distribution does not have the drivers required to service the SATA disk device controllers. They are designed so that their «native» mode of operation is AHCI mode. This is an advanced technology that has replaced the IDE mode. But AHCI mode was introduced much later than the release of Windows XP, so in many distributions of this OS, drivers that support AHCI mode are simply not available. This is the reason for the blue screen of death with error 0x0000007b. nine0003

There are two ways to solve this problem:

  • Find (download on the Internet) a distribution kit that has these drivers. The best option are assemblies from ZVER;
  • Change the operation mode of SATA devices from AHCI to IDE. In this case, the performance of the disk subsystem will slightly decrease, but the blue screen of death will no longer appear.

Replacing the AHCI mode with IDE

To do this, go into the BIOS, find the SATA Mode parameter in one of its sections (usually located in the Main menu) and change its value to IDE, as shown in the figure:

Then save the changes and exit BIOS. The PC restarts, and the Windows installation repeats, but without this error.

Malfunctions in the disk devices themselves

These malfunctions include:

  • unreliable contacts in the connection of hard disk loops;
  • breaks in the loops themselves;
  • hard drive file system errors.

The best way to make sure that there are no such problems is to connect the hard drive to another computer with the same OS and run a file system check on it using the chkdsk system utility. This utility not only checks the integrity of the disk file system, but also eliminates some errors if possible. nine0003

To run the chkdsk utility, you need to click «Start» — «Run». In the window that appears, type the command chkdsk disk /f, in which instead of the disk parameter you need to specify the letter of the drive to be checked along with «:», for example, chkdisk c: /f. After pressing OK, a window of the form will appear:

After the test is completed, the PC will reboot. You can then transfer the drive to the original PC and reinstall the OS.

Microsoft Windows Appearing system messages can help us with this. By analyzing this set of letters and symbols, you can find out with high accuracy what the problem is.

Possible causes

The blue screen that appeared during the installation of windows xp means a rather serious problem. nine0003

There may be such options:

Their solutions

What to do in such deplorable cases? Fortunately, anyone can solve this problem. Despite the great variety of systemic conflicts, they are all resolved in approximately the same way.

You can do the following:

  • check the hardware (hard drive, RAM or video card). To do this, you can use special utilities. After reading the problem code, you can more accurately determine the device that has failed; nine0012
  • disable antiviruses and system utilities. If you intend to install on an existing OS, a conflict may arise;

  • format hard drives. If the problem is with the hard drive, it is better to format it. Of course, before that, you can transfer all important files.

When installing windows xp blue screen 0x000000a5

Why does this error appear when installing the OS? It indicates a memory problem. nine0003

Let’s see what can be done:

  • If your computer has several RAM modules installed at once, try pulling them out one by one and repeating the Windows installation process. Most often, this method helps, because the straps rarely fail at the same time;
  • if this does not help, you should change the RAM sticks;
  • if you have only one bar, you can try to bring it back to life. To do this, clean the contacts in the motherboard memory, and the RAM board itself, and also blow out the dust. Be careful not to damage the chips. nine0012

Tip: Many experts recommend cleaning contacts with a regular eraser.

Pay attention to all labels when starting the installer. If the ACPI BIOS ERROR message is present on the screen, then there is a problem with the system drivers.

You can solve it very simply:

  • start the installation from the beginning;
  • wait until Press F6 appears on the screen if you need to install third-party SCSI or RAID driver; nine0012
  • then press the F7 key;
  • as a result, the problem will be exhausted.

Other errors

Another equally common error is 0x00000050. Most often, it is detected when trying to install an OS over an existing one.

It may appear for the following reasons:

  • hardware malfunction or failure;
  • video card or RAM defects; nine0012
  • NTFS corruption;
  • problems with the anti-virus program (mainly Kaspersky).

What can be done in this case:

  • check all equipment. If one was inserted into the motherboard, it should be tested first;
  • turn off all system services one by one;
  • check the hard drive using the Chkdsk utility.

In some cases, error 0x0000007B may appear. It usually appears during the completion of copying files, that is, before selecting a partition. It lies in the conflict of the Sata interface. To fix it, replace AHCI with IDE. nine0003

This is done as follows:

  • go into the BIOS;
  • find the item SATA MODE;
  • select the Main tab. Press Enter;

  • Photo: SATA mode change
  • set IDE mode;
  • select save and exit.

That’s all, as you can see, dealing with the so-called «blue screen of death» is not difficult at all. Even an ordinary user can cope with this. To avoid such troubles in the future, try to regularly test all equipment. Special diagnostic programs will help you with this. nine0003 window.yaContextCb.push(()=>{ Ya.Context.AdvManager.render({ renderTo: ‘yandex_rtb_R-A-331051-133’, blockId: ‘R-A-331051-133’ })})»+»ipt >»;
