... and I said.. "Eureka! Eureka! Eureka! You must be GOD". Thanx a tonne man.. I love both of you whoever you are, wherever you are!
I had EXACTLY the same issue and had been searching the world over for the solution. I had a 1000 bucks on this computer and it does not work.. same issue.. same stop error while installing ANY OS (XP, 2000), same pci.sys and isapnp.sys and ntfs.sys missing. Tried everything under the sun.. until I found you both.. GOD! I went through all of the above while I was searching on the net and found the solution... its the damn RAM.. and guess wat.. I never thot of it because it passed the POST RAM test so I thot the RAM was definitely fine. But bet was I wrong....
Thanx a tonne buddies....
