What program did you use on the usb stick ?
Rufus ?
Just put your 2 Vengeance sticks in slots 1 and 3
And did you set the bios to defaults ?
This is a strange one, you have decent hardware.
I formatted the USB stick using Diskpart and then used MS' Windows-7-USB-DVD.exe software.
I've tried with both sticks of vengeance ram and reset the bios/cleared the cmos repeatedly.
I burnt 3 Win7 DVDs in the end and they also have the same problem
I'm kinda relieved that it doesn't seem to be me being stupid - I'll report back later when I've tried the new CPU...
Thankfully a new CPU fixed the problem! Thanks for your input guys :)
Process of elimination, Very Good
Now you can have the thrill of installing 7 and about 6000 updates
Make sure you talk to Thrashzone to get the latest update client installed so you don`t have any update problems.
He explains very clearly what you need to do here.
Windows Update will not update and I've tried multiple fixes
Hi,
Actually the clean install updating process is here which saves a lot of failed updates from happening :)
windows update
You can use the Convenience Roll-up to cut down on the number of individual updates.
I couldn't locate the thread on SevenForums, so here is an arstechnica link:
Windows 7 now has a Service Pack 2 (but don?t call it that) | Ars Technica
