Once the CD arrived everything worked like a charm.
#WINDOWS XP MEDIA CENTER OS DRIVERS#
Note this is not the same drivers on there web site. Because Dell does not ship that model any more they had to make me the CD all over again with the correct drivers it took about 4 days to get.
#WINDOWS XP MEDIA CENTER OS DRIVER#
Turns out the Windows XP Home Edition Service Pak 2 Reinstallation CD that came with my computer did not have the correct SATA driver so it kept looping and giving me the very same symptoms as you. I had the very same issue after trying to format my xps 600. So I am posting this for any one who might have the same issues and happened to come across this page. Hi Faboo, its been a while since your post. Press "F10" to save those default settings, re-start and come back here to tell us that you have successfully booted. Immediately enter BIOS Setup by pressing "F2" (no quotes) repeatedly until you see the BIOS screen. Win XP provides generic SCSI drivers.) Reconnect power cord and power on the machine. (NOTE: You do NOT need special drivers/software for a SATA drive unless you're doing RAID. Now, re-install memory, re-connect HDD, preferably the original, floppy, mouse, keyboard, fans and their required connections. Go here to see where those Pins are on your Dell XPS 600 motherboard(#15):
Count to ten, then put jumper back to Pins 1 & 2. Then reset your CMOS by moving jumper from Pins 1 & 2 to Pins 2 & 3. Remove memory sticks and gently wipe their contacts with LIGHTLY alcohol-moistened paper towel. Try this: Remover power cord, disconnect ALL cables/connections from fans, cd/floppy drives, HDD's, mouse, keyboard, etc. Normally, a driver causes your symptoms but, since you did a complete (not "quick", right?) format of the oem HDD, that should not be the problem here. I'm fairly computer literate, but not as much when it comes to opening up the box so any help is appreciated! Thanks in advance! I have the Nvidia DXG051 nForce4 SLI motherboard. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I can fix this? I can't get onto Windows anymore, even by Safe mode (I get all these lines about partitions when I try). Unfortunately, that has not made a difference. I've also updated my BIOS to the most recent one off the Dell website. However, the brand new HD leads to the identical error message at the same time in the booting process. I thought it was my original HD, so I purchased a new SATA drive. Each time, the installation seems to run til the end but the final boot always causes the same error, always at the same time. I have tried both repairing my OS as well as fresh reinstallations after boothing from my orange dell disc. Run CHKDSK /F to check for hard drive corruption, and then To make sure it is properly configured and terminated. If this screen appears again, followĬheck for viruses on your computer. If this is the first time you've seen this Stop error screen, The installation seems fine, but when it goes to boot up, I get the following blue screen message:Ī problem has been detected and Windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer. I had formatted and reinstalled Windows on the factory HD. Thus, I'll try my own post so I can answer questions specifically on my situation. I've looked at previous posts on similar errors but those haven't helped me. This is my first post to this group and I hope I can find some help as Dell has not been able to help me thus far.
Thank you for taking time to read this post.
