    A problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer.

    If this is the first time you've seen this stop error screen, restart your computer. If this screen appears again, follow these steps :

    Check for viruses on your computer. Remove any newly installed hard drives or hard drive controllers. Check your hard drive to make sure it is properly configured and terminated. Run CHKDSK /F to check for hard drive corruption, and then restart your computer.

    Technical information :
    *** STOP : 0x0000007B (0xF78D2524, 0xC0000034, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)

    Please don't use BIG LETTERS because this won't give you help faster, so ease off the caps lock.
    Have you formated the hdd before installing?
    Have you tried changing to ide in bios prior to installing?

    Looks like hard drive issue that comes with device drivers. Do a clean reinstall of the OS, just to be 100% sure.
