Russell,

I changed the CPU Host Clock Control to 133. Is this correct? It still
reboots, do I have to do a repair of XP now? Or should it boot to Windows?

Sally

Hi Sally,

Whenever you install a new motherboard, you have to either run a repair
installation of Windows XP or better yet, format your OS partition and
clean-install the operating system from scratch. There are just too many
registry settings created when installing an operating system on
particular
hardware that will no longer be valid with a different chipset, CPU, other
onboard chips, etc. that come with a new motherboard/CPU upgrade.

Also, you have the 875P chipset and a CPU that supports an 800 MHz front
side bus, but that PC2700 memory will limit you to a lower 533 MHz front
side bus speed. Make sure that your BIOS bus speeds for CPU and memory
are
set for 133 (quad-pumped to 533) and not 200 (quad-pumped to 800).

Hope this helps,
Russell

Hi,

I just put in a new mobo and cpu in my system. I'll give the specs
below.
When I boot up, it POSTs, properly detects my hard drives and cd-roms
and
then it goes to a prompt that tells me Windows did not properly load on
the
previous attempt. It asks me to select from normally starting Windows,
or
Safe Mode, or Safe Mode with Command Prompt or Safe Mood with Network
Support. No matter which I select, the systems just reboots and we
repeat
this process over and over. What can be the problem? I have tried:
1. unhooking all IDE devices but my primary hard drive
2. putting the primary HD jumper to Master, Cable Select and none
3. using a different IDE cable

My systems specs a

Gigabyte mobo, GA-81k1100
P4 2.8 w/hyper threading
1 gig of memory (PC2700) installed in two channels
WD Caviar 80 GB HD - master
WD 40 GB HD - slave
FDD
Sony DVD burner
Sony cd-rom
Windows XP Professional
Zoom 56K modem
ATI Radeon 9200 128 mg video card

I would appreciate any suggestions to get this baby up and running
again!
Thanks!!
Sally
