An exact copy of the Stop Error report is needed.

Disable automatic restart on system failure. This should help by
allowing time to write down the STOP code properly. Right click on
the My Computer icon on the Desktop and select Properties, Advanced,
Start-Up and Recovery, System Failure and uncheck box before
Automatically Restart.

Do not re-enable automatic restart on system failure until you have
resolved the problem. Check for variants of the Stop Error message.

An alternative is to keep pressing the F8 key during Start-Up and select
option - Disable automatic restart on system failure.

If you are using a wireless keyboard and the F8 key does not work
substitute a wired keyboard

Hope this helps.

Hello

I need to reinstall my OS so I removed the HD from my fairly new HP
Pavilion and attached it my notebook via an external USB enclosure. I
then combined several existing partitions using Norton Partition
Magic. Tested for surface errors, unhid the drive, formatted it and
reinstalled it in the Pavilion. Using an original XP disk, no SP I
attempted to install the OS. Just after all drivers, etc are loaded
the screen turns blue with a halt error specifying pci.sys.

I have removed every PCI component including memory and tried again
with the same results. I am looking for instructions for 2 things.
First to solve the problem, can I remove the HD, attach it to my
notebook, install the OS and then install the disk in the Pavilion?
Failing that, what else should I do?

Thanks

Doonie
