    Hey, I have an asus g50v and I'm having bsod problems trying to install xp home 32bit. By the time i get into the blue screen and it says "windows setup is starting" I get the BSOD. I made a slipstream cd for my raid drivers, but Im not sure what I'm doing wrong :/. anyone have any suggestions?

    Well, post exactly what you did.

    Next - not essential, but helpful, if you can get the error code.

    Vista to XP BSODs are mostly drivers related.

    cheers ...
