Trouble Installing Windows 7
I built a new computer just last week and I installed windows XP on it without any trouble. Then I tried to install windows 7 professional x64 and every time i do it, I get one of two Blue error screens. If it cuts off before the instal can even begin, it says
A problem has been detected and windows has shut down to prevent damage
to your computer
IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
If this is the first time you've seen this stop error screen,
restart your computer. If this screen appears again, follow these steps:
Check to make sure any new hardware or software is properly installed.
If this is a new installation, ask your hardware or software manufacturer
for any windows updates you might need.
If problems continue, disable or remove any newly installed hardware
or software. Disable BIOS memory options such as chaching or shadowing.
If you need to use Safe Mode to remove or disable components, restart
your computer, press F8 to select Advanced Startup Options, and then
Select Safe Mode.
Technical Information:
*** Stop: 0x0000001E (0x0000000000000000, 0x0000000000000000, 0x0000000000000000, 0x0000000000000000)
But sometimes it makes it into the install portion and cuts out halfway through and gives the same message with the error code as.
*** Stop: 0x0000000A (0x0000000000004510, 0x000000000000000D, 0x0000000000000000, 0xFFFFF8000CEE5280)
I have tried installing all of my motherboard drivers and finding updates online but nothing seems to be resolving this issue. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
