SYMPTOMS

When you start your Microsoft Windows XP-based computer after you replace the motherboard on the computer, you may receive a Stop error message that is similar to the following: STOP 0x0000007B INACCESSABLE_BOOT_DEVICE

CAUSE

This issue may occur if the new motherboard contains an embedded IDE controller that has a different chipset than the original motherboard.

RESOLUTION

To resolve this issue, use one of the following methods.

Method 1: Perform an in-place upgrade of Windows XP

If the old IDE controller and the new IDE controller detected your hard disk as the same size, perform an in-place upgrade of Windows XP.
