Well, I found out the hard way that you don’t mix a pre-Service Pack 2 edition of Windows XP with a SATA hard drive….
You see, the original edition of Windows XP (of which I have a copy) does not recognize large-capacity SATA hard drive on first installation. However I subsequently worked out the install of the SATA with the help of MS customer service, but I kept getting intermittent crashes to desktop. Odd.
That lasted until this past Monday, when I was in the process of "backing up" a DVD onto my hard drive, and then, WHOOPS… the Blue Screen of Death appeared. ARGH.
I was unable to boot the comp until late last night when I installed my old IDE hard drive.
So far, things look fine, but who knows?
