Ok, I'm starting up my computer which was just put together from scratch and it tries to load Windows XP but stop and gives me a BSoD with the following error.

A problem has been detected and Windows has been shut dow to prevent damage to your computer.

If this is the first time you've seen this stop error screen, restart your computer. If this screen appears againt, follow these steps:

Check for viruses on your computer. Remove any newly installed hard drives or hard drive controllers. Check your hard drive to make sure it is properly configured and terminated. Run CHKDSK /F to check for hard drive corruption, and then restart your computer.

Technical information:

*** STOP: 0x0000007B (0xF789E524, 0xC0000034, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)


I've tried to use a different hard drive (a SATA one and a regular one) to see if that was the problem but it still gives me the same error, and I've tried to reformat the 80GB hard drive and I still get the same error. What am I doing wrong, please help!

And here are my computers parts:

Intel Core 2 Duo E8500 Wolfdale 3.16GHz 6MB L2 Cache LGA 775 65W Dual-Core Processor

ASUS EAH4850/HTDI/512M Radeon HD 4850 512MB 256-bit GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFire Supported Video Card
