Thanks for the info guys. Seems strange to me though that I was able to install Win 7 RC on an even older MSI motherboard -- also with an AMD processor -- and this one with "ony" 768mb of ram. That system ran 7 RC fine.
I got tired of pulling my hair out and installed Ubuntu on the machine instead. It runs Ubuntu great, btw!
But since it has two 30gb and two 20 gb drives, I think I might try a dual-boot setup later with Win 7 on the other 30gb drive. I've got other fish to fry right now, and don't have the time to waste--er, spend -- on it right now.
I will ponder your advice and try it out once I've set up a boot manager.
