Hi, my system's spec. is...
CPU: Intel® Celeron® D Processor 330
(2.66GHz, 533MHz FSB, )
Chipset: Intel® 845GV chipset
Memory: 512MB DDR
Hard Drive: 80GB HDD
Optical Drive: CD-RW/DVD Combo Drive
Video: Intel® Extreme Graphics integrated
Sound: AC '97 audio
The win XP freezes at the logo screen during the installation.
it went through Normal Format process and setup process and when it restarts for the first time, it gets stuck.
I did research and did everything that I found that might work but
I found that nothing works...
I tired changing boot order, reinstall with full format and with other OS cds...
But I never tried updating BIOS, if you think that that is the only solution, please advise me how I can do that...
One more thing.... my computer used to work just fine on WIN PRO SP1, but the OS that I am trying to install is WIN PRO SP2... does that matter? Peace!!

Hmmmm.... Maybe you can try to do a systems restore in the safe mode. Restart the computer, and keep tapping F8. YOu will get a black screen where you can choose safe mode with the arrow keys. Then press enter key to load your computer in safe mode.
Then click Start-> all programs-> accessories -> systems tools-> system restore-> choose restore to an earlier date/time-> next -> you will get calendar choose the date on which your computer was working fine -> next-> next ..... it will restart your computer, then choose normal mode and then see whether its working or not.
Hopefully this should help you.

Some part of the restore file is most likely corrupted. Try chosing a different restore point, from Safe Mode. Start ->run ->msconfig -> launch system restore. Try one at least a week prior to the one you just tried.

you may alright have a hardware difficulty. Your maximum suitable guess is to open the laptop and eliminate all pointless hardware like soundcards, greater beneficial drives (exceptthe ones you truthfully could desire to place in living house windows) and the different greater beneficial enjoying cards which includes community enjoying cards or modems. attempt installation lower back and spot if it keeps any greater beneficial. If it completes, you may attempt including the enjoying cards lower back in one at a time and attempt powering up the laptop and spot if windopws recognizes them or has any matters getting them to artwork. stable success!

I can give you a link that deals with hard drive problems.
Some RAM/hard drive problems can be easily fixed yourself by using easily available tools. I found the info at http://fixit.in useful. Try this site, if you can get what is required.
