windows installation; hardware issue?

for some reason after i format my hard drive and load the setup files during the windows setup, when it should start the graphical part of the windows, it says it cant install cause of a hardware issue.

im not overclocking anything ATM, using the setup in my rig (minus the 120GB drive)

any ideas? right now im reformatting a partition on my 160GB drive but i doubt that will help

"windows could not start because of a computer kisk hardware configuration problem. could not read from the selected boot disk. check boot path and disk hardware. please check the windows documentation about hardware disk configuration and your hardware reference manuals for additional information."

i have both my ram sticks in the orange slots, tried taking one out but still had same problem.

some mod please delete this... i got it to work somehow on my 160gb drive
