blank screen when XP installation Written on January 17, 2010, by arifwicaksono.

this is the first time i found something like this, when i’m going to install XP operating system on my computer. after “press any key to boot from CD ” menu then “inspecting hardware” notification showed, my monitor only give me a blank screen, like nothing happen.

it sucks! knowing have to face a problem that i never expected even i don’t know there is a problem that i/we will face when installation step. every time i install a new operating system it goes well, not like this one.

after checking all hardware on my box and i reassure that everything still working fine, i do cross checking the CD installation to another computer, well the CD still works too. so what the hell problem?? why it show me a blank screen when installation step??

here is the answer, the answer is still on the installation CD, my XP installation CD is do not have a SATA hardisk driver (my new computer using SATA hardisk). so i reburn a XP image that support SATA hardisk and the problem solved. :D
