URGENT: I'm desperate!

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.win2000.general (More info?)

I bought a brand new computer: Intel 4 2.8 procesor, Intel D865GBF
motherboard, RAM 512 MB DDR333, and two 120 Gb SATA disks.

I install an ORIGINAL copy of Windows 2000 Servers and everythings goes ok
but then, suddenly, blue screens appear randomly: when I open programs,
click an icon, open "My Computer", etc. Blue screen exceptions are always
diffent: 0xa stops, kernel exceptions, etc:

I tried ALL the following things but neither of them work. I'm still getting
blue screens!!!

1) I reinstalled Windows 2000 Server
2) I changed the disks
3) I changed the memory
4) I changed the motherboard
5) I installed a copied Advanced 2000 Server (just for checking if my
original disk was corrupted)
6) I tried with the bundled drivers in the Intel CD, AND with the new ones
from the Web.

Some thing to notice: I could never install SP4: everytime I open the
installation program I got a "File is corrupt", even I tried it in another
windows systems. I googled I everyone sais that the file is actually
corrupt, but it isn't true.

Please help. I don't know what else to do.
I'm DESPERATE!

Did you F6 and load the manufacturer's sata controller driver during text
mode setup?

Nope. But when I tried with normal IDE disk it was the same.

Nothing really to do with the drive. The drive controller would be the
issue.

You'll want to boot the Windows 2000 setup disks or CD-Rom. The set of four
install disks can be created from your Windows 2000 CD-Rom; change to the
\bootdisk directory on the CD-Rom and execute makeboot.exe (from dos) or
makebt32.exe (from 32 bit) and follow the prompts.

Then *F6* very early and very important (at setup is inspecting your system)
in the setup to prevent drive controller detection, and select S to specify
additional drivers. Then later you'll be prompted to insert the manufacturer
supplied Windows 2000 driver for your serial ATA controller in drive "A"

If you wait and then S to specify additional drivers, then it may be too
late as Windows 2000 Setup at this point may have already assigned the
resources your drive's controller is wanting to use.

When you get to the point, delete the existing NTFS and or other partitions
found. After you delete the partition(s) abort the install, then again
restart the pc booting the CD-Rom or setup disks to avoid unexpected drive
letter assignments with your new install.

Did you build this computer yourself or had a professional do
it? Several other things to do: Visit the Intel support site,
download and install the current bios revision for this mother-
board (provided it is an Intel "retail" one; otherwise, go to
the OEM site for the same. Next, is the proper, certified RAM
installed for the particular CPU (e.g., DDR 400 vs. DDR 333).
In bios setup, re-configure it to the "default" setting; the
motherboard behavior is showing symptoms of "overclocking",
probably due to mis-matching of some components. One final
point to check, especially for a home-built, was the CPU fan
and heatsink installed properly, with thermal paste/pad and
is the computer case adequately ventilated?

Along this vein, I once fought a similiar issue with my home comp.
Eventually i resolved it by DOWNclocking a 2ghz athlon to run at 1.6.

the problem with service pack corruption is probably from a bad memory
(other possible reasons CPU & motherboard)

The only thing I didn't change is CPU.
I didn't mention something that may be important: During installation (with
the original or the copied cd), setup show an error says that XXX.XXX file
cannot be copied. After retrying (pressing ENTER) several times the issue
was solved. Maybe this is related with the sp4 problem.

Thanks again

Did you try using another CDRom to install from, sounds like bad file copy,
this can also happen if you have a bad memory stick, or
one that is incompatible for the MOBO

Nope, but I tried copying the file to hard disk and installed from there.
Same problem.

The computer was build in a computer shop by professional. All changed made
to hardware (mobo, mem) were done by them.
I tried with the new bios but the application cannot run on windows servers.

Tomorrow I will go AGAIN to the shop and change the processor (the only
thing that never was changed).

Thanks again

The same problem with "corrupt" installation files? I mean... windows setup
reports that the file was not copied.

Thanks

Finally: It was de f***** processor.
I changed it for another one (the exact speed and type) and setup run ok,
and windows 2000 now works without blue screens.

Thanks folks !!!
