M6VLQ Biostar MB and Windows XP Upgrade???
Posted: Thu Aug 24, 2006 4:08 pm
Hope this is the right area for this...
I had problems with a PC I have with the above MB so I decided to reformat the HD and reinstall windows XP pro.
I fdisked the drive and re setup the partition. Then went and formatted drive OK.
Went to install Windows Xp and it hangs at the Windows setup page in the beginning. I am able to install Windows 98 SE with no problem and it runs fine. If I try to upgrade to XP, the install hangs at the same exact place.
Do I need a BIOS update or could there be a virus???
Any help, ideas appreciated!!!!
