Try taking out some of your RAM and attempt to do it again...many people have issues installing 7 with more than one or two sticks of RAM. It is a bizzare problem and not everyone knows exactly why it occurs

i have the same problem when i install windows vista x64 but when i install 32 bit version of windows vista and 7... there is no probelem but when i install x64 bit OS the problem occurs

Zidane has given you a very good answer. In case that advice does not work, you can use plan 2. Make sure that your computer has the specs to accept Windows 7. Do a clean install rather than an upgrade. Do not put your key number when asked, do that after installation. When done, try it for a few days, before you give your number. You have 30 days

Are you upgrading 64 bit to a 64 bit. You cannot upgrade from a 32 to a 64

Maybe it thinks too hard about something so easy?

We have seen several issues with Asus MOBOs.

This error code is usually due to the graphics card or memory.

Check Device Manager for any yellow triangles.
Let us know which device if you find one.

Have you installed the latest bios update?
Check the Asus website for a newer version.

Also check for an updated graphics card driver.

Any Over Clocking of the RAM, CPU or GPU?
Reset to defaults.

Run a memory test. I would definitely do this test, 4 - 5 times.
Memory Diagnostics Tool
Memtest86

Let us know what you find.

It means that you have a problem with your ATI graphics drivers. I'm not sure whether it's really that, or a memory problem.

Have you run a memory diagnostic yet? I'd suggest:

www.memtest.org

(Download the .iso form, create a CD, and boot from it. The test is OS independent.)

I've read that XP was able to boot on systems with memory errors, while Vista would fail. (That's not a virtue of XP: no one would want to run a system with memory errors.) I expect that Win7 would be the same as Vista.

If you get memory errors, you may be able to manually set the RAM paramters (voltage, timings, frequency) in the BIOS settings to get reliable performance.

That's kind of weird. It might be an XP issue. Now I'm afraid to install it on my Vista computer ha ha.

 

[cbogz]

i already check device manger and isee no yellow triangles.... i already tested the memory as you said and there is no error.... i dont overclock coz i dunno how...... and im afraid to upgrade my bios coz im afraid it might be corrupt.... when i use windows xp x64 8gigs works fine but when i try vista and 7 x64 the blue screens began to appear and says......
atikmdag.sys.......................i dunno wat it means

 

[gregrocker]

Do you have onboard graphics chip so you can unplug the graphics card to attempt install?

Are you booting from the installer? Use custom>advanced tools to wipe the drive and format first. Save a backup image of your Vista, or be sure you have recovery disks.

 

[cbogz]

i already tried that but it has the same result.... but when i install 32 bit of windows vista and 7 it just works fine.... id unno what to do now lls help

 

[cbogz]

thanks for all who gave me suggestions..... my problem is already done by updating the bios...im using now windows 7 x64.... again thanks to all who have help me.

 

[Dave76]
