XP weird error!

[Mayflower]

I just installed a fresh XP pro on my newly built PC.
Everything went fine, I used one partition for XP and I formatted the other partition for my data.
Then right when I try to install zonealarm firewall, my desktop crashes, a quick blue screen flash then XP restarts.
When it re-login, it stays only a few second on the desktop, blue screen flash again and retarts.... so on and so on.

Then I try to enter safe mode, but now the XP logo loading just stop appearing, even when I restart, the screen stays black...
I tried inserting XP cd to repair but the rom doesn't even read it!!

what's happening ?
seems like everything stopped working...

Now I can't even reinstall XP cause the rom stopped reading.

In the BIOS settings, everything looks fine, the computer recognize the HD and DVD rom/..

help ?

Sounds like a faulty part. Is everything plugged in right? I know it's a dumb question. You may have to try contacting your mobo provider for support.

Re: XP weird error!

if something wasn't plugged, I should've known it sooner no ?
I mean, my computer was running fine since hours installing xp, formatting drives...

what firewall/antivirus do you have ?

Re: XP weird error!

It seems strange that you would get that error just from software...If you can, try running memtest on that ram you have. That's usually one of the biggest causes for blue screens.

I use AVG Free btw with windows firewall.
