BSOD when loading XP Setup
Note: This problem is on my Sony VAIO VGN-NS25G. Here are specs:
Intel Core 2 Duo T6400 (2GHz)
2GB DDR2 SDRAM Memory
250GB SATA HDD
Windows Vista Ultimate
I decided to put Windows XP and pass the VAIO system to one of my friends. When I load the Windows XP Install Disc (from retail stores), it starts loading files. When it says "Setup is loading Windows", after few seconds; it automatically crashes the system and comes the BSOD. No dump files
Looks similar to this:
When I go to BIOS; all I had were these:
System Information, Time and Date
Boot Priority
BIOS Password
Saving & Exiting
That's all. I felt pissed how the VAIO System really sucks. There were no SATA configuration, or anything like that. Just those 4 stuff were in the BIOS above.
Btw, found this. Shows what Windows Vista really looks like:

Wow... 1 day... still no reply.
If you're going to finish using Vistax64 - then just log out.
There's accounts still logged in 24/7, but never on.

Tried doing chkdsk /f . BSOD still appears.
Tried all that, BSOD still appears.
Where it says to Press F6 to install a third party SCSI or RAID Driver - should I try that?
