Hard time getting new build to boot...




By playsguitars on Mar 15, 2009

Ok, so i had a P4 and a cheap MSI board that I recently upgraded. went shopping, now I have this setup:
Windows XP PRO Corsair VX550 psu AMD Athlon X2 2.7GHZ Dual Core ASUS M4A78 PRO Mobo NVIDIA 8800 GT 2GB Corsair XMS 800mhz RAM Antec 900 case with 3 fans and a 320 GB WD Baracuda HDD.
Now, I got to the bios, past that, etc. It boots to windows. after that loading windows xp screen, the monitor shows the blue screen of death but only for a split second, then it auto-restarts. I can access windows thru the safe mode, though i can't really do much there because everything isn't available in safe mode. What can I do? 
PS- Also, when trying to install ASUS's driver package through the CD they supplied with the motherboard i get a kernel error, and cannot load it. so basically i bought a motherboard with no drivers to support itself?
