Trouble on Windows install
I am trying to install Windows 7, it took about 10 minutes to get into the screen where you choose language to install, and its taking real long to get into actual install part. Did something go wrong?
Update, I got the CD/DVD driver missing during installation and cant proceed any furthur. Here is what I have ASUS P5KPL-CM LGA 775 Intel G31 Micro ATX Intel Motherboard - Retail http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813131288 Intel Pentium E6300 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16819116091 CORSAIR 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820145238 Western Digital Caviar Black WD7501AALS 750GB http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16822136283 Antec Sonata III 500 Black 0.8mm cold rolled steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case 500W Power Supply - Retail http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16811129024 LG Black CD-ROM SATA DVD Burner http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16827136177 LINKSYS WMP54G IEEE http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16833124115 HIS H465FS512H Radeon HD 4650 512MB 128-bit DDR2 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFireX Support Video Card - Retail http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814161303 LG 32" 16:9 6ms 1080p LCD HDTV 32LH30 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16889005063 Last edited by zjun518; 02-16-2010 at 08:33 PM. |

What is the exact error message you're getting that's preventing you from continuing with the installation?

How old is your optical drive? You have it listed as a CD-ROM and the Newegg link shows a blank product page. I would be surprised if Win7 did not have the drivers for it, but it is a possibility.

The links are all broken because he copied and pasted the specs from his build thread.

I have a similar build, and I had the same experience: Win-7 took a long, long time to get through its setup screens. |

Bump on this
I just tried to install Windows 7 again via a USB thumbdrive, and I unplugged my DVD rom, I am still getting this same message that says my CD/DVD rom driver is missing. |

Are you using a genuine Microsoft Windows 7 DVD?

If you have downloaded Win7 and have a valid license then I would suggest re-downloading the ISO file and trying to burn again to disc. You could have corrupted a file during the downloading process. |

Yes its genuine, though maybe different from retail since mine is a student version. I downloaded it from my school's MSDNAA.
I downloaded it 3 times already, twice in English and once in Chinese. They all yield the same error. I will remove one ram and try it in a bit. |
