BSOD when I try to install windows 7 ultimate 64b
I've build a computer and want to install windows 7 x64 on it.
But when I start the setup I allways get a bsod: Most of the time with this error: 0x00000124
I also had these: 0x0000007F, 0x0000009C, 0X0000007E, 0x0000000A
These are my specifications:
Mobo: MSI P45 Diamond
CPU: Intel core 2 Quad Q9650 3GHz
RAM: Kingston HyperX (KHX1600C9D3K3/6GX), I've put in 2 X 2GB in slot 1 and 3 atm.
HD: 1 Maxtor I, 1 Maxtor II (tried seperatly, no success)
Graphics: Powercolor radeon HD 6850 PCS+
PSU: OCZ ModXstream Pro, 600W
The files are loaded from the DVD, then I see the windows logo. After that I usually get a BSOD. Right before I have to do the settings and create partitions.
Very rarely I can get past it and start the installation, but then a blue screen comes up anyway.
When I try in Safe mode, it loads drivers until driver.sys. Then it just stops.
Right now, I've put only one memory stick in (2GB) and I tested it with memtest86+, there were no errors.
I also checked the hard drive for errors.
I was able to succesfully install windows 2000 professional.
I also tried to install Windows XP, but that didn't work either.
Could it be my graphics card?
If so, what can I do about it. I don't have onboard graphics.
Right now, I'm out of ideas. Anyone who knows what the solution could be?
