Answer» Hi there, I am getting an error when I TRY to install XP Media Center 2005 from a recovery disk for a Fujitsu computer. I have tried a clean install and it formats and partitions the hard drive fine. During the install of xp I get a blue screen with PFN list corrupt. I have tried it a couple of times. In the error message it also says that you can might try and disable the BIOS memory options, CACHING or shadowing. I couldn't find these in any of the BIOS SETTINGS. Help!!! Your error, in most cases, points to bad RAM, or bad hard drive. Run memtest: HTTP://www.techspot.com/vb/topic62524.html Run hard drive diagnostics: http://www.tacktech.com/display.cfm?ttid=287Thanks for this. I tried the memory test on two of the ram modules and they were OK. I then tried installing the OS again and it worked with using 2 of the 4 ram modules. I have installed SP2 &3 as WELL. The PC now freezes on start up when the wireless card is installed. If I remove it it works fine. I'll try and re install the software for the wireless card tonight. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. If the freezing still happens after installing the wireless card try installing it into a different PCI slot.
