Hi guys. I finished a build today nd its all fine, bios detects everything, all settings are ok.
Now im trying to install windows 7 and i keep getting errors, whats going wrong?
Here is the cycle of what happened and now its just looping the same screens.

I go on custom install as its a new build:

Nowim just going in bloody circles!!!
Please somebody help!
 
The download got paused at 95% but then i reset the net and it continued and finished.
Dont think this could have caused it do you?
I shall try burning at a slower speed yeh?
 
damn it lol.
I had a perfectly fine disk at home ive used 2 times but i forgot to bring it here so had to download it and now i get problems :(
Knew i should have traveled home and got it.
 
Btw whilst i have you wizzes here.
If i create a partion and install it on the partition and then put all programs and files on another partition can i change/modify OS's without wiping all info from the HDD?
(just burning disk, the sums came back same as what you have Mattus, thanks for the program link :D)
 
oooo'key.
Just re burned the iso nice n slow.
Put it in. I sat on the lovly windows 7 blue sky esque background for a bit and treated me to this:

Ive re started and im waiting on the blue sky type background again.
 
Ok...so we are back at the begining.
You've failed me yet again, windows!
This time i have a different fail message, it says this now:

In the bios it has detected all of the ram fine aswell. I cant see any obvious problem in the bios.
 
k, burning memtest now.
What and how do i do memtest, and if something is wrong how do i go about fixing it :-s
Is this going to be broken hardware/faulty or are things not compatable :(
Or is it like changing settings in the bios :'(
