    stop 7e acpi.sys error when installing on new build


    Hi there,

    I am receiving a stop 7e error on install of windows 7 x64 on a new build pc.

    My Components are:

    AMD fx-8320 processor

    Gigabyte 990fx-UD3 motherboard

    16 GB Corsair Vengeance RAM

    vtx AMD Radeon HD 7850 x Graphics card

    Western Digital 2TB hard drive

    I have updated my motherboard to the latest BIOS.

    Here is photo of the error I am receiving.



    Again this is a new build without any previous installs so I cannot boot to safe mood etc.

    Any further questions do not hesitate to ask I just need a solution.

    Hello waynemurray.

    According to Carrona.org, STOP 0x0000007E: SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED
    Usual causes: Insufficient disk space, Device driver, Video card, BIOS, Breakpoint with no debugger attached, Hardware incompatibility, Faulty system service, Memory, 3rd party remote control.

    If possible, take these tests in another computer with your new hardware ....

    Test your RAM modules for possible errors. Run memtest for at least 8 passes, preferably overnight.

    Stress test the Graphics Card using Furmark.

    I am asking to some hardware experts to have a look if your hardware are compatible or not.

    It is not possible for me to test components in another pc as I do not have access to one suitable but all hardware is posting correctly before the windows start.

    I checked all hardware compatibility before purchasing so that should not be the issue.

    I am going to try and boot linux to see if I can get anymore error reporting.

    Your hardware all seems good and should work well together. You might have a bad installer, is it a retail DVD, burned from iso or on a flash drive?
    On a new build sometimes a connector gets missed or not fully seated (connected), go through the entire system and double check everything. GPU power connectors don't get fully seated many times.

    I am using a legitimate copy on a bootable usb hdd.

    Everything seems to working fine as it works correctly up until it freezes at the windows logo and starting windows screen. After it freezes I receive the blue screen I posted earlier.

    I extracted an iso onto the hard drive then made the drive bootable through command prompt. Cannot remember exact commands but "bootsect.exe /nt60 d:" something like that?

    I think if you make a DVD or USB Flash Stick you will get a good installation.
    I think your attached bootable HD is confusing the install.

    Yeah think I might need to go buy a usb drive because can't find one large enough to make bootable.

    A 4gb will work, but I used a 8gb. They are fairly inexpensive nowadays.

    This program called Rufus worked great to format the USB stick & install the .iso to it
