    Reboots after splash screen


    I hope this is where i can post this.. sorry if its not. I been using Windows XP but had a play with Windows 7 beta and liked it. so I got myself Windows 7 a few days ago and done a dual install for it. well it installed alright but when it goes to windows splash screen it reboots. I been looking into it and i found a post about the same problem I'm having which would be Nvidia Video Cards needing like a patch but to install it you would need AIK(Automatic Installment Kit).. I tried downloading it but it gives me a page can't be displayed. So is there any other way around this that i can fix this? When i had windows 7 beta i had a different video card.. I hope someone can help me

    thank you

    also i would like to add that i did a clean install on a new hard drive i done the install 3 times same out come. I do a format on xp and also in Windows 7 setup. just to make sure to get a good clean install.

    I am running IDE cabled hard drives but im using a Maxtor ATA controller to use the hard drives since i have no sata hard drive. but i install the ATA Controller during the install.

    Im installing Windows 7 64bit

    and nothing is overclocked

    What type video connection are you using with the 8500GT, VGA, DVI, HDMI ?

    How many IDE connections are on your MB, if no SATA drives ? How many CD, DVD drives do you have connected ? I assume they are IDE.


    Link me to the MB page if you can ! How much ram memory during install ?

    From mine & many other users over the past year with the beta & the retail installs, there is better luck with a standard VGA video connection & 1 to 2 gb of ram & be connected to the internet during install. Hope this might help.
