My pc (specs in sig) has been pissing me off beyond belief. One day i tore it down to install a new watercooling radiator then i boot it up and i get a Stop 0x0000007E error saying make sure i have enough disk space or driver issue.

Well then i installed windows and it was working then i moved my water cooling pump over and i turn it on and i get the damn error again. Then i install another partion of xp and then i click my old one and it works agaion.

So then today i opened my pc up again to plug in my chipset fan and i turn it back on and i get the same damn error again. Im really pissed at this point and dont wanna install windows again so what is my issue here??

Ive already tried to reinstall all my drivers in safe mode and it did nothing.
 
Why was the chipset fan unplugged in the first place? Have you tried running Memtest? It's always a good idea to check the memory if you're getting BSODs with a clean install.

I would guess it's a RAM issue, chipset issue (overheating), or a dying hard drive in that order.

The chipset fan was unplugged cuz its loud and i had a 120mm fan blowing onto it and the temps were still alittle high for my liking so i plugged it in.

I ran memtest for 5 hours and it passed,chip set temps were fine so im thinking its a hard drive problem. Just hoping some sales come up on one if thats the case.
 
Does the water cooling plug into your PSU?
If so, its likely you have reached the limit of the PSU.
If this is the case, dont push it, PSUs can expire in a loud and expensive way.
Test with a more powerful PSU if you can.

If the PSU is ok, I'd rebuild the PC from scratch taking very special care that everything is together well.
Then at least I'd know any further issues are down to software/config.
