hugh,

First create a signature. See my signature for link. We need to know what you got.

[hughlle]

well, i got it sorted, a stick of ram was faulty.

 

new problem:

 

when i boot from cd, it works, but then when it sais 'inspectin pc config...' on windows intalller before the blue screen it hangs and hasn't moved in about 20 mins

[StephenC]

Have you tried clearing cmos? Are you using raid?

[hughlle]

yep, cleared cmos and am using a sinlge ide drive which it detects(although it should be detecting two of them)

 

have tried a different disc and a diffferent drive just in case that was the reason but still hangs.

[hughlle]

ok, slight improvement, got the windwos files copied to the hdd but when i boot up it sais backing cmos...ok
