I decided to structure my whole system new and install everything again from scratch to organize my DAW in a better way.

I setup the primary C partition with 8GB for Windows and started to install Windows.

Now the win setup tells me an error.
Error code 800b0101.

It says that the system file time is invalid. I should check my computer date and time in the BIOS. Well, did it, it´s the actual time and date. Also tried to set it back to 2001.

I´ve an Intel D875PBZ main board and an old Windows XP Prof. Maybe both won´t work together? Do I need a newer Win XP version?

A friend of mine suggested me to do a bios reset, remove the battery, short both contacts and wait some minutes. But I feel bad with that somehow.

What to do?

xp and the d875pbz are fine together normally. maybe a bios reset is in order, but if you do that, i might think you'd start over and repartition again as well.

Ah could sort it out, a time bomb windows version, great.

My windows version has a use-by date certificate. Thank you M$.
EDIT: I had to set back system time to 05/03/2003. Awesome, isn´t it?
