Joined Nov 27, Messages Hello again everyone. I recently purchased a new motherboard and I've been having some extreme difficulty installing the fresh Windows XP I've been forced to install.

I checked everything I could think of Nothing seemed to be faulty. The first several times trying to install XP the installation would freeze at around the 34 minute mark. Okay, I'll update my bios. I flashed my bios, and everything seemed to be working perfectly I've started fresh and still it freezes at around the same mark during the registering components process.
