You probably have defective ram. Test it with memtest86+.

I guess it will just do it thing even though i only get a c: prompt
i guess since it has 4 sticks and 2 look alike and the other 2 look alike that i could probably pull 2alike out and see if that is the problem also..
i will try the memory test thing.. i am curious how it works.. thanks for the link.

wiped clean and re install and that seemed to fix it..
