Okay I'm running out of ideas so here goes the desperate cry for help. I have a windows XP MCE with sp2 DVD. I've nlited this to add the nvidia raid drivers (in text mode) from the legacy directory (Ive tried a couple of versions but most recently 6.85 as per page 1 of this thread), nothing else is integrated (no addons, other drivers, nothing at all). When I install from my nice shiny new DVD the text mode install works fine, the system reboots, the GUI install phase starts and completes. The screen changes to a basic light blue (not the BSOD, more a desktop blue) and the mouse cursor is still visible. The system then freezes completelly (the mouse cursor will not move). If I manually reboot the box it will pass all the usual BIOS stuff and then BSOD with error code 7b. I've also tried this with the legacy raid drivers as well as the bus and ethernet drivers to the same outcome. Any ideas as to what this might be would be appreciated. My system is Athlon 64 chip 1GB ram 1 * 120GB PATA disk (windows install is on a 60GB partition on this disk, other 60 is unassigned) 2* 300GB PATA disks (raid array, mirroring) 2* 300GB SATA disks (not in raid). All disks are 7200rpm and the two raid PATA disks are of identical model. I love storage me
