To see what it should be, pull out one of the sticks and itll say on it.

only power options i can find are

vcore voltage: 1.31v
3.3v voltage: 3.29v
5v voltage: 4.83v
12v voltage: 12.22v

Have you got sli memory enabled or something?

[awesome-o]

No its disabled

But i have just found voltage control with memory voltage set to auto and alist of voltages to choose from if i pick manual

[Clunk]

yes, set it to whatever it says on the sticker on the sticks themselves.

Try this link, it gives several possible problems that all give a similar error message to the one you've listed. At a guess, there's a missing driver you need to supply, maybe a RAID controller driver??

have you attempted a format and reinstall if all you have on the HDD is a fubar install of xp

[awesome-o]

I also tried a spare IDE drive but still got the same bluer screen which is why i dont think its a hdd issue
