Installing Windows Xp Blue screen ERROR

Okay I have wasted like 10 Cds on this. Any help I would greatly appreciate it.
I have a G50vt-x1

I slip streamed my Windows XP cd with this tutorial
http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=122632#genericxpdowngrade

However, I still get the blue screen when I try to boot up the cd. I used there default drivers that said would work with most motherboards. Am I using the correct Sata Drivers?

Basically I boot up the cd,then I click a button to load cd. It loads and then the blue screen comes up.
Please help. I have to multiboot my computer before this monday.

 

Try in compatible mode see if the installer does something. If in compatible the disc works, you have a bad slip.

 

and you should just get a rewritable disk instead of wasting write-once disks. I always use a rewritable when doing testing of xp cd creations.

 

How do you try it in "Compatible mode"? Is that just basically inserting the windows Xp cd in when Im on vista? If so then it the blue window xp screen comes up, however it doesn't let me select "Install Windows Xp"

 

It's in the BIOS, turn the SATA controller to Compatibility Mode. Or you can get the F6 floppy from intel if you have a USB floppy drive. Alternatively you can slipstream the ICH9 driver in but that's a bit more of a pain. There's a guide by GenTech that has everything laid out all nice:

Hey " ALLurGroceries"
thank you, I also found this one
http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=282100#winxp
I was wondering if that's the same? and if i would work on mines because I have the G50vt-x1 . Those are for the G50v, I think they would though

 

Yeppers. Basically the same thing as the link I posted

The diff between G50V and Vt is only the GPU, so all drivers work fine.

 

Yeah I think I may have found the problem.

I used iaAHCI.inf, so ill try this. Thank you

I don't have to edit the bios though right? O should i do that as well? Because I remember in the first tutorial was that you can either edit the bios or just slipstream.

And also on the link you posted. Should I add the other drivers that I need to download to the nlite installation? Or wait until windows xp installs, then add them to the operating system?

 

It depends... the best way to do it is with a USB Floppy drive which is the method I used. If you're going to use the .inf files from intel, that's for slipstreaming (or a floppy). The quick way around it is to set the SATA controller to compatibility mode in the BIOS. That's not an option for a RAID configuration however, so that limits your choices in that case. But if you're not RAID configured you can set it to Compatibility Mode and not have to do anything else to get windows installed.

 

And also on the link you posted. Should I add the other drivers that I need to download to the nlite installation as well with the raid driver? Or should i wait until windows xp installs, then add them to the operating system?

 

I'd only worry about slipstreaming the SATA (intel ICH) drivers, not anything more. That's all that's required to get through the installer. Again if you're not RAID'ed you can just tweak the BIOS setting, install windows, boot windows for the first time and replace the driver, and then set the BIOS setting back. That's the easy way to do it.

Slipstreaming is always a pain, really why I went with the USB floppy since I had one.

 

Is it really that easy to activate it afterwards? On the W7 I had major problems trying to do that; i worked for about half a day following several different guides/procedures and then gave it up.

Slipstreaming on the other hand worked like a charm. No problems whatsoever, and it's now running in SATA Enhanced.

 

This is very hit and miss....i prefer slipstreamed and proper install...

 

The easiest way is to use a USB floppy drive, which is what I've said is my preferred method. But it's easier than slipstreaming.

Of course but the OP is having problems with slipstreaming...

 

I think your problem was caused by the old version of XP installation CD. It needs XP sp2 CD or newer version to install XP on ASUS notebook computer.

Another alternative is to use nLite to integrate the SATA driver, Service Pack 3 components, and Internet Explorer 7 into the XP installation CD, and make a new XP sp3 CD. Here is the way to do it.

Get the Service Pack 3 components, WindowsXP-KB936929-SP3-x86-ENU.exe from here, and put the file under C:\

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...a8-5e76-401f-be08-1e1555d4f3d4&DisplayLang=en

Download the Internet Explorer 7, IE7-WindowsXP-x86-enu.exe from here, and put it under C:\

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...be-3385-447c-8a30-081805b2f90b&DisplayLang=en

And download the SATA driver 32-bit Floppy Configuration Utility for Intel® Matrix Storage Manager, f6flpy3286.zip from the following site. Unzip it in a new folder and name it SATA driver. Put this folder under C:\

http://downloadcenter.intel.com/con...91&DwnldId=17061&strOSs=&OSFullName=&lang=eng

Download and install the program nLite.

http://www.nliteos.com/download.html

Put your original XP CD into the DVD drive. Run the program nLite and click Next. In the page of “Locating the Windows installation”, click Browse >> My Computer >> DVD drive, a window pops up.

“Select where to save the CD installation files for modification”.
Choose or create an empty folder.

Click OK, a window pops up. Click C: >> Make a new folder >> type New XPCD >> OK

The nLite starts to copy all the files of the original XP CD into the folder C:\New XPCD.

Click Next. In the page of “Presets”, click Next. In the page of Task Selection, select Integrate [Service Pack], [Hot fixes, Add-ons, and Update Packs], [Drivers], and [Create Bootable ISO], click Next.

In the page of [Service Pack], click Select >> WindowsXP-KB936929-SP3-x86-ENU.exe >> Open. The nLite starts to integrate the service pack 3 components into the folder of New XPCD. Click Next.

In the page of [Hot fixes, Add-ons, and Update Packs], click Insert >> C: >> IE7-WindowsXP-x86-enu.exe >> Next.

In the page of [Drivers], click Insert >> Single Driver, a window pops up, select C:\SATA driver, 2 selections show up, select iaAHCI, click Open, then pops up another window, in which there are more than 10 selections, select Intel® ICH8M-E/M and ICH9M-E/M SATA AHCI Controller, click OK >> Next, a window pops up with a question “Do you want to start the process?”, click Yes. Take out the original XP CD and put a blank CD into the DVD drive.

Click Next. In the page of Bootable ISO, select Direct Burn for Mode, type New XPCD for Label, select minimum 4 x (705KB/s) for Burn Speed, then click Burn. The nLite starts burning the New XPCD. After completion, you have a new XP installation CD now. You can use it to install XP smoothly.

If you need the XP drivers and utilities, don’t hesitate to make a request.

Good luck!!
