Try resetting bios to factory settings, get rid of any memory upgrades

[punkin 10]

change memory??

[Marx 10]

Do you get anywhere with the install? Have you tried installing from USB?

I also remember bsod problems on older pc's with the bios ahci sata driver, set this to emulation mode until all the windows drivers are properly installed

[megalithic 10]

I find most cases of bsod are due to inadequate or old and flaky thermal paste. It's the first thing I check these days.

Bin it. I will give you a Fujitsu Lifebook with 2Gb RAM and an 80Gb hard drive if you want it. It has Windows 7 on it but it isn't activated as the original OS was XP.

[handyman1996 10]

right it takes 2gb ddr2 max on Toshiba website

but will only run with 1gb in or a 512mb in

but if x2 slots are being used wont work

use x1 slot not matter which one it works ??
