Big Problem Need help Please!!!!
it's been 5 years since i last built my computer. Decided to build it again for Windows 7.
Here is my computer setup. Everything is brand new.
MotherBoard: Gigabyte GA-MA790FXT
Processor:AMD Phenom II X4 955
Memory: Mushkin DDR3 4GB (2 x 2GB)
Video Card: XFX Radeon HD 5750 1GB
HDD: Seagate 80 GB (Both SATA)
OS: Windows 7 Ultimate (legit copy, not a pirated one)
PSU: ULTRA 600Watts
I connect everything and boot up from DVD.
1. On first try the computer just froze when the "Starting Windows" screen with the new logo came up. sat there for 2 hrs. then i restarted the install
2. On second try, the went all the way up to extracting files and then restarted by itself and still nothing.
3. On the third try it again froze at the starting windows screen.
So then i decided to go back to Vista. but this new setup won't even install vista anymore. Freezes at random points during the installation.
I am running the minimum no of hardware and I just don't know what else to try. Any Help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in Advance
