Hi.
I just bought new hardware to build my own pc. Im using a Asus P7p55d-e Motherboard, with corsair dominator ram, a caviar black 1tb western digital, xfx 5770 ati radeon, i5 750 and im using my old Lg cdrom who never failed me before.
My new computer boot up I can acces the bios, the bios see my cdrom connect my hard drive to, everything perfect.
So i put w7 cd, boot the computer with the cdrom and its loading files i can hear the cdrom running, just after the cdrom stop running and the loading freeze i need to reboot the cpu, i tried with a other cd of w7 i tried vista the cdrom always freeze.
Any idea,
Thanks in advance.
 
Solution
If it's a CD drive, you probably need a DVD drive, if your install discs are DVDs.

The freezing may be a problem with the RAM voltage settings.

Thanks for your answer.
Im sure my cd-Rom drive takes DVD, the instalation of the Os start I can see the windows logo starting up.
The ram voltage is the only thing I can see right now, ill try to figure out something, where can i see the good voltage for my ram? I have corsair dominator xms3 2x2 gb.
Thanks alot.
