ADDED Windows 7 Installer Reg Fix

Nick89 · Feb 2, 2009

Need help.

I'm trying to install Windows 7 on this comp:

CPU: AMD Athlon 64 X2 5600+ 2.8ghz
MOBO: BIOSTAR A740G M2+
2GB Mushkin DDR2 800
Onboard Video
Onboard Sound

Every time it starts installing after I select the Hard drive it BSOD's some time while in the expanding files process I think.

I need some help trying to figure out what the problem is.

The Error message:

Stop: 0x000000D1 (0xFFFFFA8801971FFC, 0x000000000000000B, 0x0000000000000001, 0xFFFFF88000F3865D )

atapi.sys - Address FFFFF88000F3865D Base at FFFFF88000F36000, Date stamp 494318a5

install the sata/raid/AHCI drivers.

Looks like they are skipping Beta 2 and moving straight to RC1.

Now this is kinda weird but set the correct time and u should be fine. http://thevistaforums.com/index.php?showtopic=6691 This worked for windows 7 too.

Mussels · Feb 4, 2009

if the time is more than 12 hours out, windows update doesnt work.

ohmystars80 · Feb 4, 2009

I am thinking of installing W7 - everything here is a must read if you are going to do so.

Should be made a Sticky - great work!!!

Is anyone having problems using standby with 7?

If I put my computer into standby it will randomly turn itself back on and hang in a weird half booted state and there is no display or response.

I have Vista installed on a seperate partition and it goes into and comes out of standby without any issues.

Anyone else experiencing this?

(I am running Catalyst 9.1 but it did it on 8.12 and the ATI 7 beta drivers)

LiveOrDie · Feb 4, 2009

no problems here try the newest driver you can find from vista

mine wasnt hanging, but it was randomly waking. had to disable 'allow this device to wake the PC' on my network card, in device manager.

I had that problem with the Beta 7000, but with the new download from Microsoft, I haven't had it.

the download from microsoft is the beta 7000 :rolleyes:

DanishDevil · Feb 4, 2009

I know that, but the version from Microsoft seems to be different than the 7000 I downloaded not from Microsoft...

So I think what I got was an earlier 7000 or something. I dunno. The problem's solved itself for me now anyway. Or maybe it's because now I'm running the x64 rather than the x86...

LiveOrDie · Feb 4, 2009

could be just a bad install the 1st time with dif drivers and software, and like you said could be the 64bit i didnt get mine from MS and i couldnt be bothered redownloading it again lol

Mussels · Feb 4, 2009

mines x64 and it had it, until i altered the network card setting.

DanishDevil · Feb 4, 2009

Not sure then. Whatever, isn't bothering me now

Mussels · Feb 4, 2009

new quesiton. anyone having problems with network dropping out/freezing on transfers to network shares?

We've had it a lot here on several systems, the only things in common is every system has a Q6600 with 4GB+ ram (what, theres 4 uber rigs in the house

), 7 x64 and kaspersky internet security.

I'd like to hear if anyone has had this problem WITHOUT kaspersky, as im wondering if this is why they released a beta specifically for 7.

(the problem tends to occur only on larger/multi file transfers, sometimes losing your IP address/network/internet occurs with it) Most obvious symptom is that the file transfer gets stuck estimating time remaining, and doesnt ever move anything.

alexp999 · Feb 4, 2009

Has anyone found in WMP that when you switch to fullscreen viz it always uses the green bars?

pantherx12 · Feb 5, 2009

Found out myself it was to do with the time, but thanks anyway guys.

The computer I was working with was set to 2002

The computer has got some serious hardware issues, could not install XP and struggled to get Seven working, but now can't enable Aero because WEI crashes and media decoding test.

Also when trying to shut down the computer blue screens!

Oh dear oh dear. XD

Windows 7 hangs just 10-15 minutes after boot

Hi,
I'm on E6600, 2GB DDR2 667, Abit AB9-Pro, Geforce 6600GT.
I've tried installing W7 (b7000) x64 on this machine, everything worked great,
But the system hangs, after some time, even if I simply reboot and leave it in the login screen.
I've tried reinstalling, and working with or without the WDM geforce pre release driver that windows update recommends.
So I guess that's not it,

The action manager (or whatever) stated that there is a problem with my Abit Guru.. something, and it needs to download some application from the vandor's site... but it downloaded a BIOS flashing software that I don't think (or want to) use...

Do you have any idea what can I do? (or point me out to any place that can help..)

i've got a 2.9 on my media PC. i think its due to the partition sizes. Let me guess: you guys have approx 40GB windows partitions for your C: drive?

Also, i solved my network crashing issues. Untick kaspersky NDIS filter in yoru adapters properties, it seems its not 7 compatible yet.
