    Windows 7 x86 Ultimate Freezing (Prerelease retail)


    not the RTM or a pirated copy i just got home 5 hrs ago from the "The New Efficiency " event in detroit MI. and i ran into an Old issue i did w/ the RC and x86 RTM.

    it just Locks up after a few mins.

    setup:

    500GB SATA HDD (installed to)
    300GB IDE (slave)
    Nvidia Geforce 9500GT
    2GB DDR2-667 Ram
    ECS Geforce 6100SM-M2 Mainboard

    i couldnt solve it last time i had this and simply went x64. but the copy they gave out at the event was x86 not a choice of X64/X86

    You might be able to use the Key you got with Ultimate x64 if you can get a copy of it, if you have not activated this key you just got 5 hours ago. Do some searching !

    What is your PSU rated at... after searching your problem on google, it seems other users with your graphic card have had this problem, and solved it by using a bigger PSU... seems that the Nvidia Geforce 9500GT pulls a lot of power and could be responsible for the freeze ... just a random thought...
