Well my computer started to act all funny on me. I had been thinking about formatting.. so I went ahead and did it (tried anyway). Well, when I try to format, I'm getting a stupid 0x0000007b bsod! I remember this happening in the past. To fix it, I just had to install some driver off the mobo CD. Here's the problem, I just ripped my room apart and cannot find this CD :mad:. Oh, I formatted the hd with a floppy, thinking it might fix the error.. before I remembered this has happen in the past.

Is there any possible way I could download this CD?. I've been trying to search it, but have come up with nothing. I don't remember what driver I had to install off the CD... mobo is in sig.

Any help would be awesome.

Thanks alot!
 
Thanks alot guys.

It worked... well, kind of. I'm past that ugly bsod, no more stop message.

I'm now this far... The XP CD loaded up, it rebooted and asked me if I wanted to repair, setup, and the other option. Of course, I went to setup. When I hit enter to setup I get this weird error. It's saying my CD is damaged? I have kept it in top notch care, there's honestly no scratches on it.

Screenshot. When I press enter, it just takes me to a screen to reload the driver from the floppy, which was to fix that stop bsod. When I click enter to reload that, it just takes me back to the screenshot, so it goes no where :(

Any idea? This is starting to annoy me :(

Thanks guys.
 
A simple fingerprint will stop a cd from working. Make sure there are none. But be careful when cleaning it.

Also, the cd drivers might not have loaded. Does your cd/dvd player have it's own driver disk? If so try to load that as well.

Well, the CD is almost spotless. I cleaned it anyway and same thing.

I know with my motherboard that I can't format unless I press F6 during XP install. Once F6 is pressed, I have to install some driver which I did and it works. Without installing that, I get the bsod stop error.

I don't know what to do... Is the driver bad? The one I used off the CD worked like a charm the first time, I never got this weird error before.

I never had to install the dvd ram driver, plus I don't think I even have it... if I find it, how would I go about loading it in?

I picked up a 8800 gts today, im going to go crazy if I can't use it lol.

I read a site and someone was having a similar issue as to mine. However, he was using a SATA hd, and used RAID. I use one IDE hd, not sure why I even need to install this driver... he was getting the exact same error that I posted, after resetting his boot devices, it worked. I tried that, and it did no different.

Any suggestions on what else I should try?... this is driving me nuts!

*** Edit: Well, I tried again and it worked. No idea why all of a sudden it worked.
