Acer Aspire
AM1640-B1580A
E2180 Intel Dual core (2.0Ghz X2)
2gig DDR2 ram
320 Gig SATA drive
Now heres the thing the computer was fairly cheap for the specs it has and running XP i think it would be a fine PC right? But it came with vista preinstalled.
So I unpacked it and first thing i did was pull out my xp home CD and attempted to install then hit the first BSOD. Would start to load up then BSOD because it could'nt find the HDD. No floppy drive on the PC so I cant load up drivers that way

After a little Google-fu I find out it needs drivers injected into the windows install CD.
Alright grab nLite, look for drivers, Inject, and get them on a burned CD. Success!!
Or... not

Anyways the computer im using now needs to be emptied, flat lined, and sent back so I need to get this new acer running asap and because i formatted the drive vista was sent to hell and with XP unable to load I have no OS LOL As far as im concerned Vista can stay in hell, No backup CD's came with the PC n i didnt make any. I dont care for vista in the least, but i do need to get XP running so what can I do to work around this little conspiracy M$ and acer have going? Any help ASAP would be awsome cuz I really do have to get rid of my old PC ASAP and theres lots of stuff on my old pc i would like move to the new pc before its gotta go
Oh my BSOD Stop 0x0000007B
Im desperate LOL If your willing to take this PC and install XP for me squirrel that would be awsome
