Ok, here's the situation. My Athlon X2 4400+ system was running smooth as
butter and I was finally relieved to have finally gotten my system back in
order after two months (since my last painful reinstall). A week ago, I
decided to upgrade. My upgrade consisted of :
Gigabyte GA-963P-DS3 rev 3.3 Motherboard
Intel E6600 Dual Core CPU
2GB Corsair Memory
Nvidia 8800 GTS PCI-E Video Card
New Power Supply
That's it. My old video card was a X1900XT by ATI and obviously the
motherboard chipset was different. Here's what is blowing my mind though.
Every single time I boot off my Raptor drive which has a pre-existing install
it blue screens on me. Even Windows setup with the Vista Install disc
blue-screens UNLESS I go into it's special options and tell it to not verify
signed drivers. I cannot figure out what in gods name is causing this. I'm
running on the new PC on a fresh install on a separate drive but I want to
get my old drive working again so I can retain all my installed games / apps.
I've seen 009, 142 and 8E error codes during the stops. I've modified my
bios to heck and back, I swapped back in an ATI video card, I tried running
my memory one at a time, I've reseated the motherboard, I've tried running
off different SATA cables / ports, etc. I have literally tried everything I
can think of. When I am able to get into Windows Vista Repair (after going
to the spcial option to not check drivers) it first told me that nothing was
wrong and then the 2nd time I tried it failed and asked me to send a report
to MS since there were invalid drivers.
Someone please help me, I have been trying to solve this for over 8 hours
now. I have work tomorrow AM and I just want to get running off my Raptor
again.
