WinXP does not like drastic changes in hardware. When you change the motherboard this is consided a major hardware change. the device drivers and settings are different that what it used to be. You may need to go into safe mode, unistall the drivers, then re-install the drivers for the new hardware. The easiest and probably the best solution would be to re-install the OS. If you have files or data on this drive that you want to keep, I would suggest getting another drive and slave your old drive so you can retrive the data from there.

I'm suprised WinXP would even boot up with 64M memory.
