Ok, I recently posted a thread about a Dell GX270, which was getting errors, and i found that the hard drive was faulty, i replaced the hard drive, and it worked, next i replaced the BIOS battery, because it didn't have much 'juice' left in it. Now, I installed Windows XP.. well tried, and still trying to. Windows gets to the bit where it says Installing Devices, and then the monitor goes blank, and it's light turns amber. Now, I can still hear hard drive, and CD drive activity, I don't know if this is something to do with the graphics, but it displays POST and BIOS, but it suddenly turns off there.
My specs are as follows:
Dell GX270
Intel Pentium 4 2.4 GHz (HT)
512 MB of DDR RAM (2 X 256 MB)
20 GB Hard drive (it has not been formatted, as I still need the data already on it, this may be causing errors, but i'm not sure, I can take the data off of it, and then format it.)
Onboard Intel Extreme Graphics 2
Windows XP version:
Windows XP Home Edition SP2
Please Help
