    Hello there
    I am currently building a pc for a friend of mine but I encountered several problems along the way.

    First off the motherboard wasnt compatible with the cpu, so i had to take my cpu and flash bios to support the other one in the first place. It took me a while to figure out this had to be done but it went well in the end.

    Now i tried to install windows 7 on my friend's SSD ,with the new cpu in place but this is where it starts to get complicated. I got bluescreens during the installation so i tried to install it on the regular HDD (during both tries i only had the RAM,Cpu, fans and dvd drive plugged in). It bluescreened again [IMG] but somehow it still managed to install windows.



    However every setup i try to run crashed (browser, drivers, etc.) and so does every programm.

    I ran memtest86 twice and windows memory diagnostic once so it cant be the RAM itself (although i guess it could be an incompatibility to the motherboard). I also plugged the SSD into my own pc and it ran just fine so i dont think it can be either of the HDDs.

    Thanks for your help in advance

    ps : the pc specs on my profile are the ones from my friends pc

    Hello Newton, welcome to PCHF,

    Is the error code (0x7E) and driver name always the same? have you received any blue screens since the installation of Windows? if so, there will be some log files we can collect. The following tool will collect these log files, as well as some further information about your hardware that will be able to help us diagnose your problem more quickly: http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?d53ohzo1ec6bxmw < when downloaded, please right click on it, and run it as administrator.
