Pulling my hair out trying to install XP.
It kept on rebooting. I know I didn't have a virus. I thought it was the memory. But... after changing, the same problems occured. This happened for 6 weeks. Then the PC died. : ( Unrecoverable error (I've tried EVERYTHING to rescue!). Then... I took the memory and hard disks out (3 of them). I put these into a new PC and installed XP on a fresh machine. AND: same damn problem, the PC kept on rebooting. Then I installed XP on the old hard drive with the OS on. AND............ same DAMN problem! Where am I going wrong? What could be the problme? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Now make it 2 variables. And so forth. As a final note, check the XP CD for smudges. "Thagor" <tha***@email.coma> wrote in message Only 3 things are common, the HDDs, the XP CD and you.
