Can't install onto custom computer

I have no clue what is not causing Windows to install seeing as all of my hardware has come out within the proably the last 6 months but whenever I boot from CD I get this error(s):

acpi.sys

Page_fault_in_nonpage_area

or sometimes an error saying something about the IRQ being less or equal.


I am going to be calling Microsoft support tomm., but anything that I can use to get a head start on these problems would be great.

Re: Can't install onto custom computer

Did you get the correct RAM for your mobo? I'd do a memcheck from Vista
install CD.

Re: Can't install onto custom computer

yea, but I think the problem has to do with the motherboard not recognizing the hard drives. What can I do about this?

Re: Can't install onto custom computer

Hmm, I'd check for the chipset inf. file from intel - assuming an intel
system. Then open the BIOS and see if the HDDs are there and if thy are set
up as IDE/SATA raid whatever.
