Hi. I've been trying to figure out where I'm having problems with my (re)build for the last couple of days. I'll list the components first:

MOBO: Biostar A780L
CPU: AMD Athlon II X2 250
GPU: Nvidia Geforce 7600 GS
RAM: K-Byte DDR2 PC5300
PSU: OCZ500SXS
OS: Windows 7 Pro

Ok, so I'm essentially starting from scratch with this rebuild which was originally an Acer AST160. I can get everything up and running to the point where Windows starts copying the files to the HD. After a couple of minutes, I get the BSOD and the errors are different all the time. If I remove the video card, the install runs just fine.

I know that the board is an ATI Chipset and I'm wondering if there are conflicts between the two devices. I've tried to disable the onboard ATI video, but the same result occurs. Is there any way for me to install the Nvidia card on this board?
