Windows 7 won't install - "Could not configure on computer's hardware"

[Dodge777]

Trying to install Windows 7 Ultimate x64 on new build but keep getting the error "Windows Setup could not configure Windows on this computer’s hardware". Have tried unplugging all harddrives except main harddrive and still no dice. Any ideas?

Specs:
Mobo - Asus M5A97 Evo R2 AMD 970
CPU - AMD Piledriver FX 8350 4.00GHz
Memory - Kingston HyperX Genesis 16GB (2x8GB) DDR3
Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 500GB SATA
Corsair Builder Series CX 600W V2 '80 Plus Bronze' PSU
Asus HD 6670 GPU

Any help would be appreciated

Are you using RAID?

At "windows setup cannot configure windows for this hardware"
Shift F10
Type -
Cd..
Cd..
Cd c:\windows\system32\oobe
Msoobe
This should force it to finalize and create computer name, password, time, etc.

Thanks - this seems to have worked, although I remain a bit nervous that there is a wider issue that will rear its head at some point. Time will tell I guess. Many thanks for the help.
