Help! I can't install windows

fldrice · Mar 18, 2004

I can't install windows for some reason on my new rig. The comp will go into the setup, load the drivers, then hang... Anyone know what's going on? I know it's not the CD because I tried my win2k cd when the winxp cd didn't work and achieve the same results.

Have you setup the bios to defaults ? maybe something isnt getting enough juice .. and set too aggressive..

Set to defaults change my memroy to cas3 runinng 3-3-5 for install. Really ticking me off! I don't know what can be wrong. It loads the drivers in the setup then it just hangs. After about 15min the comp reboots. By the way, I can't get the machine to boot from a floppy. Do you think it may be the mobo?

It posts:

And the windows install starts...

Then it just hangs.

NF7s don't like CAS3 neither does Muskin. Set it to either SPD or 2 for the CAS.

Best memory timmings for an NF7 is 2-2-2-11

Don't ask why, but bench it and you will see.

My MB won't even post if I set the CAS to anything other than 2.

Shoot my picture hosting is down! Yeah I tried everything to and nothing works. I'm gonna get a new mobo this weekend.

Yup, It was a faulty mobo.
