Hi,

I am attempting to install xp after fitting a new HDD following a
"failure" of the old one. I have removed all of the add-on pci cards so
the system is down to the bare bones required. I have been running this
version of XP with no problems for 3 years so I know the fault is not with
the version

When I reach the point during the install where the "install devices"
starts, I get the stop code 0x000000BE. Tried a few options but I cannot
seem to fix this problem. The HDD is the same size and make as the old
one.

Any advice would be appreciated

Regards

Change the bulb to blue to find me

Chris:
This is a shot-in-the-dark, but do you think it would be a good idea to
reinstall "all of the add-on pci cards" that you removed and then try to
install the XP OS onto your new HDD? Then see if you run into the same
problem that you describe?
