Check the CPU bus speed setting. Initially, the jumper
(JP2) on my mobo was set to 'Auto' from the manufacturer
(L4VXA2 P4 motherboard; Celeron 2.66 GHz CPU, 400 MHz FSB)
Changed it to '533' (I'm running one stick of 512 MB DDR
RAM. When I first started XP and W2K installs, I first had
to disable L1/L2 cache which of course is really slow, and
after reboot re-enabled it - still crashed. Resetting the
mobo's bus speed corrected the problem. Now it flies!
