    Windows OS Install issues, dont know why


    Hey fellas and gals, im in need of your extracurricular knowledge.

    I cant seem to get windows running properly on my brand new system(ill put hardware info after i explain). Experiencing problems with tcpip.sys and C:\$ft issues. My computer cant run anything because i cant reach desktop. Maybe if i try safe mode i can try a solution.

    Solutions Ive Tried
    Windows 7 64bit clean install
    Windows Vista 64bit clean install.
    Ive ran the diskcheck /n or whatever.
    Memory diagnostic is good.

    Ive formatted my drive and deleted it everytime. If i do manage to get Windows to run, epxlorer.exe has failed to run. but now i cant even reach that. Heres my hardware




    Hardware:
    **GIGABYTE GA-Z68XP-UD3 LGA 1155 Intel Z68 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard

    **Western Digital Caviar Black WD1002FAEX 1TB 7200 RPM 64MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive -Bare Drive

    **CORSAIR Enthusiast Series TX750 V2 750W ATX12V v2.31/ EPS12V v2.92 80 PLUS BRONZE Certified Active PFC High Performance Power Supply

    **Patriot Extreme Performance 16GB (4 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model PGD316G1600ELQK

    **Intel 1155 Processor, 2500k Sandy Bridge
    **Geforce GTX 560 superclocked.

    Startup repair has taken 30 minutes on vista, considering it a fail pretty soon. Looking into the UEFI bios launch. will update in a few

    Memory diagnostic is good.

    Have read the trobleshooting links posted.

    For UEFI functions check your MOBO manual.

    Check the hard drive with the manufacturer's diagnostic tools.

    Okay i have bypassed my harddrive by making cdrom priority, DO YOU think instlalling 32 bit first will do anything. Keep in mind this is a fresh system. !

    im going to try to run hard drive diagnostic ASAP

    here we go OG....0x80070017

    im trying to the disk part manuever. I mean man did i do this process right. On a bare drive you want to install OS first, its not like theres drivers for the HD or anything or it would have came with a disk?

    0x80070017 = bad media

    General Information

    1) If the installer is one you acquired, perhaps the ISO file is bad and another will work; or if you burned it to DVD yourself, another burn is needed, use ImgBurn at no greater than x4 speed with a verify.
