Hi guys

Just bought mah new machine and the experience is not good, I had installed windows 7 32 bit but had to reinstall it with 64 bit to get full ram support , I was succesful in that too but due i to some reason I had to reinstall windows 7 so I used hiren boot cd and I guess dat has caused some issue to my SSD, trying to install windows 7. Getting error as error code 0xc0000005 plz check the installtion source, I tried installing using diff copies too and 32 bits, read few post and they sayi ts related to hdd or ram but I m damm confident its not true in my case, so if u have any input plz help me out

note : when I try to install windows 7 on my old hdd theres no prob

My config

I5 gigabyte b85 d3h
Kingstan 4 gb hyperx blu
120 gb ssd
Lg dvd

you did not specify the issue.
you should install 64 bit windows only. do not go for 32 bit. get a fresh copy and try again.

Are you reinstalling on a partition that already has earlier installed OS? Try a clean install.

Burn clean install windows 7 on other PC!
Boot from CD and clean all partitions!
Then select SSD as primary partition(Don't make partitions in SSD!)!
Install and enjoy!

When you are installing OS with more than 1 HDD, always disconnect the other HDDs on which you are not going to install the OS. Win messes up the boot drive as well. :)
