I've tried to install windows XP on a new system 1ghz duron, 256mb sdram. During installing there's 24minutes left when it gives the blue screen of death and the main error is a memory dump. This is while it's actually installing with info on how good it is etc.

Here's the catch, the system has a 2mb pci gfx card. I thought it would work but just not look great. Anyway I'm hoping this is the reason and not a badly built system on my part! I'm getting a 16mb gfx today anyway but I'm just wondering if there's any other reasons why this could happen? Also any of ye know what "Graphic win size" refers to in the BIOS in the advanced system setup section. It's not explained in the manual

Thanks in advance
