HP Pavilion a1340n

Having an issue with this particular desktop. When I let it go through it's normal boot cycle I get the BSOD.

Stop: 0x0000005c (0x0000010b, 0x00000003, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)

If I load "Last known good configuration" I get the same thing. But, if I select "Earlier Version of Windows" after hitting the F10 key during boot up it will load XP normally. I've tried restoring everything from the hidden partition but it does the same thing.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance,

Are you upgrading to Windows 7 from Windows XP?
If so, you MUST perform a clean install.

I also have a HP Pavillion A1340n and keep getting the 0000005C BSOD trying a new install of Windows 7.

After many hours searching internet, forums, etc. I found a update to the bios of the MB, an ECS RC410-M, my versione was 3.03 and the latest is 3.24, which I found here at HP:

Now I finally have windows 7 running on it.

Bye!
