Yeah!! I finally succeeded!!!If you have VIA chipset maybe the problem
depends on the AGP VIAdrivers, and VIA too recomends to use Windows AGP
drivers.Anyway that is how I've done.1- Installed WinXP SP2 (not updated)2-
At last automatic reboot I got black screen: that's ok, I espectedthat3-
Rebooted in safe mode: installed VIA chipest drivers, EXCLUDING AGPdrivers;
reboot in safe mode4- Installed audio drivers (most important!!!) and
rebooted in safemode5- Installed all other devices lacking proper drivers,
rebooted in VGAmode6- Finally, installed ATI's catalyst 4.10 and rebooted
normally7- Finish. At this point I experienced on two pcs out of five
blankscreen again, but it depends on drivers testing the environment:
sodon't worry leave it doing its work and force reboot with reset
someminutes later.NOTEI had attempted uninstalling VIA AGP drivers, catalyst
etc etc... NO,doesn't work... only this clean and tidy installation achieves
its aimThx you allyanez
