I recently built a system usin an older bad axe 304 board, problem is when the pc is turned on for the first time, everything boots and windows starts to load but the boot screen is veeeeeeeery slow i.e the blue bar barley moves then wham! bluescreen, resets itself, loads up again this time with the windows has been interrupted error etc.. then proceeds to load fine if you click start windows normally or leave it to countdown. Tried everything, even have the memory set to super conservative timings and underclocked to 266Mhz (its crucial PC5300 333MHz). A bit annoying but it seems fine after it resets the first time. Any ideas?
Dangit and its the wrong forum :D please move if not too much trouble :)
TIA.
 
Latest BIOS didn't solve it. Changed the memory to some Geil stuff and that did the trick :) I tried everything you outlined before posting here, even tried another hdd and an IDE one etc.. weird issue this but seems sorted.
