I have built a new system, installed windows and it keeps
restarting. I have tried the hdd in another system and it
boots. Could it be a problem when it tries to inialize
the graphics card? The motherboard is MSI 865PE with a
Gforce4 440MX card. I know this is just for windows but I
have no idea on what to do. Also Boot loging does not
seem to work, does anyone have a fix?

Thanks in advance

I had a similar problem with an ASUS motherboard which needed separate AGP
drivers (downloadable from Motherboard Manufacturer). Win XP didn't auto
install these and it took me a while to figure out.

Might be similar problem, check you have installed all required files from
the Motherboard CD.
