I recently got it home from being in storage. Booted machine, did the SP1 update. . . . . . DOA, BSOD loop. Typical. Reload XP, Base install, Drivers WHQL only.

It ain't the board. Ive seen XP SP1 run on that board.
take out each piece of hardware, install Xp with just vide / HD and 128mb of memory - 1 cd drive.
then put in piece by piece, see what screws up?
