It is a legitimate copy of Windows 7. My college offers free copies of Microsoft software to engineers and this is how I obtained my copy. As for the RAM, I recently RMA'd it and just got back a fresh set. I ran mem test and no errors were detected.

Have a check in the bios of the board.
The cause may be the fact a setting on it is turned on, to protect the MBR, bios virus protection of the MBR.
Any major changes to the boot record of the HD and the bios will kick in, if you have the setting on.
Turn it off if you can. Then try a install of windows.
Just a thought hope it does some good.

Look for something that says virus protection, that keeps a check on the MBR, If some changes in data a big or windows makes alot of changes to the MBR of the HD it can sometimes kick in and cause an error when installing windows.
