Vista - STOP: 0x0000007B error

I have this startup problem since I changed my motherboard and added a
hard drive. The boot process gets as far as the green Windows Vista
progress bar, then a BSOD with this error:

STOP: 0x0000007B (0x86299130, 0xC0000034, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)

I have tried Startup Repair from the installation DVD, but it reports
that it cannot fix the problem.

I installed Vista on the new hard drive and it works perfectly. At the
moment I am dual-booting until I fix this problem.

This is my hard drive configuration:
------------
IDE 200GB - Vista SP1 (original installation - boot error)
SATA 500GB - Vista SP1 (new hard drive and installation)
------------

Boot files for this dual-boot config are on the original drive (200GB).

I really appreciate some help with this. I am desperate to get my
original Vista installation back!

Cheers,
Marty

Hi,

Did you reinstall after changing the motherboard or just boot the old
installation on it? Likely you need to as the installation was built around
the hardware of the old one, and one or more of the system file drivers are
not compatible with the new hardware. Unless the new board was substantially
the same as the old, a reinstallation would be required.
