I just upgraded my old system to the ASUS M5A88 EV0 with 8GB of AMD 1333 and the AMD II 460 . The mobo has one IDE connector so I will keep my HDD with XP Home on it as it was the original boot drive.
1- SATA HDD
1- SATA Asus DVD
1-NVidia GE 7800 PCI
1-SRX Linksys card PCI
Problem:
The BIOS sees the IDE HDD but Windows will not boot. I get to the "Start Windows normally, or safe mode options but if I choose start normally or last good configuration, I only will see the splash screen for a quick flash , then some message on the blue screen then it starts to reboot all over.
Do I have to upgrade to a 64 Bit O/S for this processor to work?
Thank You for your help.
