Thank you jmmijo. I dont have a floppy in my system but I do have the CD writer. Can you provide me with a step by step to create a CD with all the neccesary files to do a F6 install?; i'm not sure i know how to. Also, my C drive currently only has one partition. Do you think this was part of my issue? I will re-partition it into 2, and install XP on one partition and XP 64 bit on the other. Thank you for your help!

I have the AMD 64 3400+ (socket 754), the Asus K8N-E Deluxe (nForce 3 250 Gb), 1 gig dual channel Giel low latency memory, ATI Radeon 9600XT, 1 SATA HD (160 Gb, Western Digital), 1 E-IDE ATA HD (maxtor), 1 DVD rom, 1 DVD writer. Windows XP is installed on my C drive (the Western Digital SATA). During the installation of Window XP 64 bit (beta) I eventually get a blue screen indicating I need to disable memory caching or memory shadowing (my bios setup does not give those options), get the latest bios update (which I did), try a different video adapter, ... Does anyone have clue to what is up with this?
