XP 2003 server stop error HELP!!!!

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.newusers (More info?)

Ok been using 2000 adv server for about two years and was happy till i
decided to upgrade to XP Server 2003, downloaded the trial from
microsoft upgraded my instalation, cool. I decide i like it and would
do a full re-install (mistake) so booted from the cd cleared partition
went fine to first re-boot and then sat watching the logo and the
animated activity bar and then after an age Boom! stop error 0x0000006f
session_3_initialization_error,i never even got to put in the cd key
I read all the threads i could and tried and tried but no
cant do it... So my question is why will it install every time
perfectly as an upgrade but not as a complete reinstall. if i knew that
then i would be able to get a bit further maybe.

My System consists of:- (this is a spare system for testing)
K7S5A PRO Mainboard (latest bios)
AMD DURON 1200
256 meg ram
2940uw scsi card
6 x 10gig scsi hard disk drives
nvidea gforce4 graphics
48x48x48 msi burner

if someone could help me out i would be very greatfull as i have no
hair left to pull out as im sure you understand after 4 days constant
re-installs.

suggest you post this article for the gurus in one of the Server Newsgroups.
Hint: There's WinXP, threes Win2k3, but not an XP Server 2003.
