New installation Windows 7 keeps hanging
Hi all,
First time poster on this forum but Im hoping someone can help.
I recently built a new PC for myself, all seemed to be going well until I put windows 7 on then the fun began.
The problem I am experiencing is that the OS will hang at start up which is any point from when the cursor can be seen on the screen right up until the desktop is almost loaded.
It only seems to happen if I leave the PC off for a few hours then turn it on, it hangs, turn it off then turn it on again and its fine.
Windows realises there is an issue with start up but cant resolve it so thats not much help either.
I have a feeling that it may be hardware related
For the life of me I dont know why, Im pretty sure all the hardware is compatible (could be wrong though) and only bought all this kit last weekend so can return any of it if not suitable.
Right now there is only windows 7 and the MOBO drivers disk installed along with the latest updates from Microsot and the MOBO Bios is right up to date.
Please see my list of kit below, would really appreciate any guidance or help as I cant see what the probem is.
