4 gig ram
7900gs
asrock mb
sata 500gb hd
sata 150gb hd
 
im running norton 2009

and i think i have found the problem my keyboard it lights up and everything but none of the buttons work i have got the latest drivers but nothing its a razer trantular

the gfx is all up to date
 
okay i have used a old ps2 keyboard i had lying around and that is working fine with no problems

the razer keyboard works fine right uptill windows boots then all i get is the lights lighting up and nothing everytime i install the drivers it says they have installed however if i remove the keyboard and then reinsert it is says searching for drivers and then the drivers failed any one can help as i hope it aint my keyboard as it cost a lot like thanks
 
thanks for the link i will update however the problem have now got worse i cant even get onto windows now before it freezes its now freezing up on the starting windows page

im scratching my head anyone have any ideas wa i have done wrong
 
okay so i have check both hard drives and both are fine whipped both and was going to do another fresh install

checking the ram i notice that the ram i have is patriot pc2-6400 800mhz however in the bois it is showing up at 400mhz :(

also now everytime i go to install windows 7 on the hdd it gets to the first stage but doesnt even get to the page where you can select the options you want before it freezes

any help as i really need this pc up and running by monday
 
okay i didnt no that about the ddr2 ram

and i will go through it tonight with a fine toothcomb and all the hdd went through the tests fine but i havent checked the dvd or the network yet and i will go through the bios
 
okay so after reseting my bios and re installing windows again i finally have got it working but still have one problem

when i use the onboard gfx it is fine it boots up and everything however when i install my gfx card it just goes to starting windows screen and no more, i have tested this card out in a vista machine and is working fine and i have tested another gfx card in my motherboard and that works so what is wrong also after the card was installed in my machine for about 4 mins the back of the card was hot not red hot but a lot hotter than i was expecting so any ideas guys as i like this card and dont fancy buying a new 1
