Ok, need someones help here. I have a custom built desktop that I use to be able to install and run XP-64 bit. When the computer was built 4 years ago, I had both XP-32 and 64 bit installed on the same drive, which was partitioned into three equal units. I later removed the XP-64 bit operating system cause I did not need it and not much support in terms of device drivers.
I recently bought Windows 7 64 bit and each time I try to install it I get a blue screen and each time a different code. I also tried to re-install the XP-64 and it now will not install giving me the blue screen also.
Here is what I can do, I can install both Windows7 and XP both in 32 bit versions. Both operating systems install with no problems.
This is what I have tried, thus far. Testing the 4 GB of RAM, Switching video cards, installing on a different harddrive, all of these test have failed to install any 64 bit operating system. I am at a loss, makes no sense to me other than having a problem somewhere in the Processor or mother board??
The processor is Intel Core 2 Quad 9400 Quad-Core 2.66 GHz
The motherboard is GIGABYTE GA-EP45-UD3R LGA 775 Intel P45 ATX Intel.
How can I determine what is at fault here?? It seems strange that XP-64 bit use to install and now no 64 bit operating system will install.
Your input is greatly appreciated.
