computer cannot boot after installing win xp sp3

[yuppicide]

Yesterday I had an automatic update of XP SP3. Once the computer restarts it works correctly for a minute then the famous BOD (Blue screen of Death).

Since even impossible to restart in Safe Mode. and if I try to start in safe mode with network he complains Driver Pci.sys.

So I try to boot from the Windows CD but it did pre-plant filled copy the setup file ... And of course I have no floppy drive.

I wonder if the problem can not have been caused by a hardware failure how can I check if Windows does not smith?

Thank you in advance

as you checked in your BIOS if you see the name of your hard drive
are you on the status of your installation CD

Yes, I check bios. I even change the order of priority of boot smith on the CD.
The CD is new, the only problem I suspect that with this album is that I've had a computer with HP and that is that I fix a system that I assembled myself. But it is old and I have the original CD (XP SP1).

I plugged my 2 hard disk on a laptop using an adapter USD and I can read every 2.

And for those who did not know it, I urge to buy for 15-20 euros a USB adapter (USD 2.0 mate drive). So if your computer has a big problem but your drive is Disk

AC OK, you can backup everything.

I will copy the installation wiondows my other computer on the hard disk and try to start again.

You can always borrow a Windows CD to your knowledge and install it with your license ... If it works it is your CD that is death.

In fact it was one of my memory card that made the soul.

I enjoy my DD to reformat and reinstall XP. It was ~ 3 years than I did.
So I replace my old DDR266 memory (sic) by more recent DRR400 and this will become a good computer for my 1st son of 9 years!
