New Motherboard & SATA 0X0000007B XP Problem
Hi All, I'm new to this site, and message boards in general. I'm getting very frustrated with the problems I've been having on my new PC build. I've built numerous computers in the past and this is the first time I've had an issue that I haven't been able to figure out and I'm on to day 4 Build: Asus P5K E2180 2.
Hi All,
I'm new to this site, and message boards in general .
I'm getting very frustrated with the problems I've been having on my new PC build.
I've built numerous computers in the past and this is the first time I've had an issue that I haven't been able to figure out and I'm on to day 4
Build:
Asus P5K
E2180 2.0Ghz dual core
4 GIG Kingston 800mhz ddr2 RAM (on QVL)
1 80 Gig Seagate SATA HD - SATA 1
1 320 Gig Seagate Sata HD - SATA 3
ATI 2400 256 Video Card
750 Watt Power supply Rocketfish
BIOS setting:
SATA = Enhnaced
MODE = IDE
Problem:
I set the bios up correctly (I think), but when I go to install Windows XP PRO from the CD it hangs up and I get a 0X0000007B error.
Things I've tried:
BIOS Update
Remove RAM
Change SATA Ports
Clear CMOS
load (F6) RAID/AHCI Drivers
Chande SATA to RAID, AHCI
Download Floppy disk from intel
and now I'm just shooting in the dark by changing various options in the BIOS and hope it boots.
Does anyone have any ideas??? I'm out of ideas and about ready to throw this computer out the window.
Any help would be appreciated

Thats what I thought as well, I tried removing one chip just in case it was the 4 gig giving it problem, then I tried with a pair, then one....still no luck.
Do you think that you might need to install 3rd party SCSI drivers for your CD-ROM to properly load? Because this is a custom build, there may be a necessity to do so.
I'm sure you have probably already looked at this article, but if not, it might give you some other directions to go in: Advanced troubleshooting for "STOP 0x0000007B" errors in Windows XP.

I tried that one as well, I downloaded my my SATA intel drivers, as well as the JMB363 driver on my Mobo CD and did the F6 install during XP setup. I'm not sure what else it could be....

What settings for PATA/SATA drives in the BIOS do you have, have you tried changing some of the settings:

SATA is set to enhanced, mode is set to IDE. Then in another section of the BIOS (Onbard devices) it's set to SATA enabled, Mode IDE. I've tried various settings and loaded various drivers to no avail. I'm starting to think it a bad board...

0X0000007B means that XP cannot find your SATA controller.
You can either change an option in your BIOS to switch it to IDE or download the SATA drivers for your controller and provide them to XP when you install it.
The ideal method is to use Nlite and the drivers from driverspack.net and integrate them into your XP CD so that when you install XP you don't have to do anything.

Is it trying to see a RAID array as both are SATA, try just one HD and see if that sorts it. Silly but you never know.
