Solve : windows xp not starting successfully?

Answer»

Kevin:

Windows XP is not compatible with every hardware device (especially older devices).  It may work with your motherboard, but not your HARD drive, for example.  

You should check the Hardware Compatibility List to see if your hard drive and motherboard are listed:

DocIf that is a SATA HDD, are you loading the correct drivers?Can you boot to the XP CD and run the recovery console? If so try running: chkdsk /R , and see if that sorts out the file system.

Disconnect all peripherals except for the mouse, keyboard, and monitor, before RESTARTING. Quote

Since this is WinXP-Pro-x64, Asus has MANY updated drivers for this OS.  This indicates they are aware of the problems and are making an effort to correct it.  Here they are:  A8V-E Deluxe
