Windows 7 Professional Installation Hangs...
Hey Guys,
I'm very new here, I found your website via a friend who works for Microsoft. He said you guys are great help, even better than some of the tech support.
Here's the issue.
I can install Windows 7 Professional 32bit and it runs sweet and fine, minus the 3/4 of a GB I don't get.
Windows 7 64bit however, unpacks 14% and locks up there. I figured it was a bad installation disc, like the ISO had an error in it. But I can't figure out whats happening. Fresh Install.
I do Fresh Formats ONLY, never an upgrade.
Mobo: ASUS Extreme Rampage
CPU: Intel Q9400 2.66Ghz Quad Core
RAM: 4GB DDR31600 G.Skill
HDD: Maxtor 160GB IDE & Western Digital Caviar Black 640GB
PSU: OCZ GameXStream 600W PSU
GFX: NVidia GeForce 9800GTX+ 256bit
Those are my specs. I know Windows 7 Supports DirectX10, as with my Gfx card. However, I don't know about DirectX, I never used Vista. I feel dirty using it, so I stuck to XP Pro.
Can one of you Genius help me with this? I'm going insane.
