BSOD during install of XP on new Dell E520




http://dsnimg.dell.com/images/external/images/BIOS-CMOS/Performance%20BIOS%209100.jpg




















  The Dell E520 come with SATA2 drives. In the BIOS config, they have RAID turned on by default. There is an option in the BIOS under ‘Drives > SATA Operation’ for ‘RAID/ATA’ or ‘RAID On’. You need to change the setting to ‘RAID/ATA’ as to remove the BSOD from the install procedure.
Nowhere on the internet is this to be found. I searched for hours the first time this came up. The BSOD error is ” STOP: 0×0000007B “.
Sometimes I wonder who makes the decisions for what defaults are on or off???
