What is your native language? - If I know, might help with making answer clear...

1) EP35-DS3 CAN work with xp2!

2) what is previously on hard disk to install? May be conflict

3) write out error message on blue screen and post here...

4) I do not have DS3 (I have DS5 - not running yet) but can help

...very welcome

hi bibat i have found the problem is the RAM problem....the mobo when ran in 1 RAM in single channel is ok no problem at all. When use 2 RAM ran in single channel or dual channel all was showing blue screen error.

so sad... i dont know all the GA-EP35-DS3 (rev. 2.1) is like that problem or only mine. And someone tell me may be is the RAM need use "in pairs of the same part number together" but i not understand of this mean. so did you have any a suggestion for me.

thankyou.

Please give manufacturer and type of RAM. ARE both stcks the SAME? If they are different, often a problem... Reboot your machine, and select "Load Optimized Defaults"; save and exit - might help...
Also, what slots do you have the RAM in?
