"Blue windows" when trying to place Windows Xp on new hard drive.

Hi, I need help

Background story,

Few weeks back my pc hard drive (few years old now) started to come up with
these different errors and started to over heating. This is the same hard
drive that crushed on me few months ago (thats when i bought vista, but that
didn't work out for my computer for some unknown thing). As of tuesday my
hard drive cooked itself far pass anything to keep it alive. So with all my
information and work papers taken with my old hard drive. Then i pulled a
Western Digital 500 GB Sata drive that I bought at christmas time ( i think
it was 20% off or something).

When I place that hard drive into my computer and booted it up everything
seemed fine. I windows Xp home reformatting the drive and it did the
preloading of the windows files. And then I get the blue windows...

"PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA"
"SESSION3_INITIALIZATION_FAILED"

So yea this is a new hard drive and most times windows xp has always been
nice. Can anyone help with this plz. I'm started school in the fall and money
is mostly going to go buy books. And I hope I can replace the bad part on the
frist time around.

Did you install the SATA drivers during the Windows install?
There is a point during the Windows XP install were you need
to press the F6 key to install drivers.

I installed the SATA drivers first then place the Windows Xp CD. Windows had
no problem in finding the hard drive.

1) DVD Drive - find a replacement CD or DVD drive.
2) Hard Drive - download the drive manufacture's diagnostic test software.
3) Windows XP CD - Created a slipstreamed CD with Windows + SP2 or SP3.
