Just built new system.

Old System:
AZZA MB
AMD Athlon 2000+
768 sd ram
WD 205GB HDD on primary IDE by itself

Want to use IDE HDD with XP Home already installed out of current system.
Current system runs fine.

New System:
BIOSTAR TForce TF7025-M2 AM2 NVIDIA GeForce 7025 Micro ATX AMD Motherboard
AMD Athlon 64 X2 4000+ Brisbane 2.1GHz Socket AM2 65W Dual-Core Processor Model ADO4000DDBOX
G.SKILL 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model F2-6400CL5D-2GBNQ
400W PS.

New system will POST, CPU is recognized, 2GB ram is recognized, and I can get the XP boot selection screen, but when start windows in any mode, normal, safe, etc, I get a blue screen and XP halts.
Error is: (Not exact wording)
Problem detected, windows shut down to prevent damage.
Check for viruses.
Remove new hard drives or HD controller.
Check HD is properly configed and terminated.
Run check disk /f to check for HD corruption.
Tech info:
Stop: 0X0000007B (0XF7B1A528, 0XC00000034, 0X0000000, 0X0000000)

I only have WD 250gb HDD on the only IDE on MB, did have DVD writer, on but it is now disconnected. I have put jumper on as Master, No jumper, and tried two different ide cables, the one from the old system, and the new from the new MB.

HEEEELLLLLPPPPP!!!!!!

Thanks in advance for any help
 
See this is why I always recommend doing a clean install. This is the kind of shit that happens. Generally, it is not recommended that you move an existing XP install over to a new PC because the system will be unstable.

Anyway OP, reinstall XP. That's the best way to solve your problem IMO. However check out this article for more info:

Yea, I know its best to do a clean install, but was hoping that I wouldn't have too !!

I have done this exact same thing with a friends computer, new mb, cpu, memory, etc., no problems, just had to let XP update the drivers for the MB, etc. His system is still running fine.

Yes, though I'd imagine that his system would be a little bit faster if it had a clean install. And what you did isn't always a guaranteed success. I've had friends do the same thing and it worked fine for them. Though when they finally got around to doing a clean install, they did notice a performance increase. But that could be due to the clean install maybe. In addition, I've had friends do the same thing as your and their setup was never stable until a clean install was done.
