What's folding? What does Mod Rigs do?
I didn't have to click on the Receive E-Mails from Evga. :D

 So basically Folding@Home is a distributed computing program used by Stanford University that will use your processing cycles that are not being used by other programs from either your CPU and/or graphics card (NVIDIA or ATI based) to work on complex protein folding sequences’ trying to find cures for diseases, such as Alzheimer's, ALS, Huntington's, Parkinson's disease, and many cancers. If you would like to learn more about this you can find more information here http://folding.stanford.edu/ .

Now there only one program that I use it's this one FAH GPU Tracker V2

Alright I'm getting very irratated and annoyed that I can't get Windows XP Pro to install on my new computer.

Just get Win 7 pro 64bit!

Is it possible it might have something to do with the "On-Chip ATA Devices"?
PCI IED BusMaster         [Disabled]
On-Chip SATA Controller [Enabled]
RAID Mode                      [IDE]
 
Raid Mode also has AHCI 
 
Edit:
I think I found the problem. From doing some research it's saying I'm going to keep getting the Blue Screen Error if I have more than 3GB of Memory/Ram. I guess this sucks because I only have a 1GB stick. Been a week and still not using my new computer, how funny is that. :D

Oh make sure you have the dvd-burner as the 1st boot too!

I'm using the Portable as the first boot.
Never had to do this on any of my other computers and ones I've worked on. haha

Is your Portable a USB or SATA or IDE?

Here you go, Win7 pro for $69, all you need is a student Email... or perhaps a trusted friend with one.

Dont worry that it says Upgrade, you can do a clean install with it too.

Thank you!
But I can get it cheaper.

I would love to know how/where you can.
Edit: Never mind, I was beaten to it.

It's all good!
I actually saw a couple Windows 7 discs go for cheap on E-Bay. I think a friend of mine got one for $39.

Torrent. Ha! Ha! Know what you get with Torrents? Embedded spyware that cannot be removed, or found by an amateur PC user/tech.

Also, I would not be surprice you are trying to use a pirated copy of Window XP or an OEM image restore disc to install Windows XP....

Put it this way, how would you like it if someone stole your work and gave it away for free? Better yet, how would you like it if someone stole your identity?

What goes around come around! 

Actually I have a legit copy of XP Pro that I actually paid for.
and same thing with my bigger brothers Windows 7.
 
Thank you for assuming though.
