Huntyz Posted October 21, 2006 Hi, Well i got this venus the other day and cleared the cmos before turning on the pc for the 1st time (previous owner had a dual core cpu on the mobo), so i turned it on and everything loaded got to windows and BSOD straight away which i was sort of expecting anyway seeing as it was a new mobo. I then tried to install windows several times trying different genie settings but everytime it would crash at various parts of the install. Ive looked at the OCDB and the install guides ect trying the configs shown but it still crashes, ive also tried installing on bare minimum ram in different slots, taken all pci cards out and checked connections i just dunno what to do next. Any Help would be much appreciated. Thanks P.S I have also run Memtest for 10 hours with no errors. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
red930 Posted October 21, 2006 Use an original OS install CD to eliminate any possible problems with the media. Try a different optical drive. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
