    Need help. Windows XP Setup SP2 stops with a BSOD error after the "Setup is starting Windows XP" message.

    I'm using a USB to install Windows XP, particularly this way:
    http://www.jcmiras.net/surge/p96.htm

    It shows a "stop: 0x0000007B ..." error.

    Trying to install it on a ASUS 3000 Notebook PC.
    Things I've already tried:
    1. Delete the HDD Partitions. Same error.
    2. Wiped the HDD. Same Error.

    HALP.

    ***Update:

    Things I've tried:
    ...
    3. Integrated WinXP SP3 to setup with "VIA VT8237/VT8251 PATA/SATA IDE Driver 1.40A Windows 2000/XP/XP" driver. Same error


    I was thinking of going to a third party RAID/SCSI driver (F6 at WinXP Setup) but the laptop can't work with floppy drives.

    I also have UBCD 5.0 in a thumb drive as my resource. Can I integrate the Windows XP setup boot disk in there?

    Tried this:

    Load to Optimized Defaults. Disabled "Onboard Lan Boot ROM" or any Network booting option.

    Load Fail-safe defaults. Disabled "Onboard Lan Boot ROM" or any Network booting option.

    Both yielded the same error.

    I can't find this setting. My HDD is apparently an IDE device.
    The only settings that I can change for it are:

    It's Type;
    LBA/Large Mode;
    Block;
    PIO Mode;
    DMA Mode;
    S.M.A.R.T.;
    32 bit Data Transfer;


    I've also tried removing its only HDD (Thus, leaving the USB device as its only storage device). But also showed the same error.
