Sounds to me like you either have got unsupported drives or unsupported ide/scsi controllers.

During booting from cd when u get blue screen u can press f6 to install 3rd party drivers. I would reccomend doing this.

Get the drivers for your hardrives and ide/scsi controllers on floppy disk put this disk in when you have pressed f6 and choose the floppy disk
