Time for the graphical section of Windows Xp setup right, It passes the stage for boot from Cd Then show the windows XP logo loading. Then it shows a graphic blue screen some message shows about windows XP “setup is starting… please wait” then screen goes black then returns with BSOD giving me on of two error messages. sometimes it says,
“Video driver has failed to initialize”
Then tells me to turn off bios options such as caching or shadowing

Find another Windows XP CD installer. If problem still occurs, you might have hardware issues.
yea..isome updated drivers can cause problems sometimes…n my case it was an ide driver..i replaced the driver from an old xp cd and it worked..the problem is finding out which file is causing it..
Disable Onboard Audio or LAN or Caching and Shadowing from the BIOS and try again
Appreciate the input Y’all and must try these options, Hope it works, will keep you posted. More input is appreciated
it didnt work… what other rhings can i do. i’m considering throwin it out ma window.
ihave decided to go to windows xp service pack 6

As of the moment , there is no SP6 for Windows XP. Maybe 10 years from now SP6 would probably exist. Lol
