STOP 0x4000008A

If you install Windows XP by using a Pre-Boot Execution Environment (PXE) network adapter or by using a remote boot floppy from a Remote Installation Services (RIS) server, the installation process may stop responding (hang) at the "Setup is Starting Windows" screen. A few seconds after this message appears, the screen may suddenly go black. You may also receive the following Stop error message on a blue screen: STOP: 0x4000008a (0x822bcda8, 0x823978b0, 0x00000000, 0x00000000) A kernel thread terminated to protect your system mutax.
