I have a problem with installing Windows on my computer. every time i try to install a fresh copy, it hangs on the starting windows screen. I tried to leave it there for 25-30 minutes but it just freezes. i even tried to go to bios and put the sata option to "compatible". it still didn't work. then i read that there was a compatibility issue with 2 ram so i took one ram out and it went a little further this time. it passed the starting windows screen but then it hangs there on a blue screen with the flower. i even tried upgrading it by installing my original xp professional but it freezes after it resets. i have a retail copy of windows 7 it works on my new setup using: Mobo: rampage gene Processor : intel i7 920 Ram: dominator 6gb ram ddr3 Video card: evga gtx 260 But will not work with my previous set up Mobo: rampage extreme 775 Ram: ocz reaper 2x 2gb Processor: intel e8500 duo core Video card: evga 8800 gts ko edition oh and before i forget i also tried a different psu because i read that it could be a problem and it doesn't seem to be it. i used the antec 650w earthwatts and a cooler master 400w. please help any suggestion would be appreciated. thanks
corrupted and old versions of files scattered from failed previous install attempts use active@killdisk to wipe the first 10% of the hdd or so.
