"New" computer returns bluescreen on windows 7 install

RAM: OCZ platinum DDR3 1600 7-7-7-24 @ 1.65 volts
CPU: core i7 920
Motherboard: MSI x58 Platinum SLI
GPU: nvidia Geforce GTX 295
I have new RAM, new motherboard, new GPU (something happened which caused two components to fail) so I am reinstalling windows 7 with a fresh setup.
Unfortunately, my BIOS is messing up my RAM frequency and not defaulting to 1300mhz.  I'm trying different settings and I keep getting bluescreens.  The default settings keep returning IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL or PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA bluescreen errors.
I figure my memory is messing up somehow, or there is some problem in the settings for the memory.  I'm fiddling around to try to get it to boot, but it's not working.  I don't know what I am doing wrong.

As the blue screens you've been getting indicate RAM errors I would suggest testing the RAM with Memtest86 from here: http://www.memtest.org/
Prime95 is more for testing overall system stability.
In the BIOS check that the RAM voltage is set to 1.65v rather than being on auto.
I ran memtest86 at 9-9-9-24 @ 1.65v (DDR3-1336)  At 61% the way through, it's produced 15360 errors.
Lowering the voltage to 1.575, 7-7-7-24, at DDR3-1066, produced 1511 memory errors at 37% done.
Spread spectrum disabled in both cases.
What should I do next?

    I have an Acrobat 8 which is all I need.  Installed on my new computer which is using Windows 8.  Each time I open Acrobat I get a window that say unable to registrator.  It gives me three options try again, redo, never register.  No matter which option I choose I cannot stop the window from opening each time I open the computer.
    Any suggestions?

    Probably far too old to register. Sounds like a bug, stopping the "never" selection from working. You may be stuck with it.

  • Using Migration Assistant to move files from old PC laptop to new MacBook Pro that has Windows 8 installed containing Outlook

    When using Migration Assistant to move files from old PC laptop to new MacBook Pro, that has Windows 8 installed containing Outlook, will emails, contacts and calendar entries be moved to Outlook on the new MacBook or into Mail, Contacts and Calendar?

    I doubt they will. But then I'm not sure as I used a migration program once about 18 years ago and totally FUBARed the system I had at that time and I've never used one again.
    For me the reason to have a new system is to start fresh. Installing only program that I now use and manually copying data over from the older system.
    Not sure your older version of Outlook, and the outlook mail boxes, are compatible with Office/Outlook for Mac 2011.
    A better place to ask this question would be on the MS Office for Mac forums.
    Hope it all works out for you.

    You only need the serial numbers. During instal lyou will be asked for a qualifying product and then must input the serial number for LR3 as a secondary number. Mylenium

  • New computer from mac to windows

    I currently have a older mac with CS3 suite and would like to get a new computer but a windows. I have the serial number somewhere but will I have problems since I have software meant for Mac or do I have to buy the software over again? thank you

    You have to buy a current version. Serial numbers are platform specific, but platform swaps are only possible for current versions and you are way out of date for any upgrades and all that.

  • New computer, connected but router doesn't install

    I bought a new computer last week, Win7 w/Norton. It connected to the internet without installing the router. But there are times when we have no internet. 
    It looks like the router is not installed on the computer. I tried to do that but it says Cannot find router. 
    So what can I do now? I would imagine I need to have the router w/Cisco Connect on my computer? 

    It is a E3000. I didn't want to mess with anything over the weekend for fear of not having internet connection at all. 
    I will look at it again tonight. 
    One thing I didn't do, is shut the router down and start fresh. Maybe that was part of the problem. But since I could connect to the internet, I didn't think I had to do that.

  • Itunes will not play my songs on my new computer I am using Windows 8

    Who wiped it? Did they make backups first? If not, then you've lost everything and not just itunes.
    Do you at least have anything on an ipod?
    If so, you can reinstall itunes and use the Transfer Purchases feature:

  • Computer won't load Windows after installing new CPU fan

    My wife's computer's CPU fan quit working so she bought a new one and installed it just now. She turned the compuer on and it  says "Windows failed to Start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause."If Windows files have been damaged or configured incorrectly, start up repair can help diagnose and repair the problem. If power was interrupted during start up, close Windows normally." The choses are "Launch repair" or "Start Windows normally." When she chooses either of those, the computer shuts down. If she tries to perform a system recovery, the computer shuts down. She tried loading BIOS defaults (as was suggested on other websites), it had no affect.

    Hello anthonydobmann,
    You’re having a problem with the computer not booting after replacing the cooling fan.
    First I’d make sure that the cable did not come disconnected from the hard drive.
    Boot the computer into diagnostics by tapping F2 at startup and run the hard disk  test.
    If diagnostics passes try to boot the computer into safe mode by tapping F8 at startup.
    If you’re able to load into windows you might have to run the recovery.
    Here are some links to run a recovery.
    Vista Recovery
    Windows 7 recovery
    Let me know how everything goes.

  • S20 *new* RAID config for retail Windows 7 install...questions

    I’ve recently ordered a S20 and I have a few questions about my situation/configuration, if anyone has the knowledge and time, I'd really appreciate it.
    I’ve configured the workstation to be shipped without an installed OS, a single SATA hard drive, and no optical drive.  I have a new retail copy of Windows 7 Professional that I will install, two Seagate 1TB SATA hard drives that I will install in RAID1 configuration, and a new DVD multi-recorder ready to install.  The drive that comes with the workstation will be used as well, but not as the boot drive.  I wish to boot off of a partition on the RAID1 set.
    I’ve looked into the hardware/user guides for as much information as I could find, but I’m not clear, and thus concerned, as to what I will need to do to get RAID setup with a boot partition and install Windows.
    I see that there are three SATA ports for hard drives on the main board. 
    1)  Can RAID be configured using ANY combination of these ports, and is the unused port still available for normal SATA drive hosting?
    For instance, can I configure two 1TB hard drives on the first two ports and configure a third non-RAID drive on the third port?
    I am now familiar with the BIOS RAID configuration utility from reading the guides.
    2)  How do I install an OS (Windows 7 32 or 64) on a new RAID partition, once it is configured, if my retail version of Windows doesn't have the driver?
    For instance, can I provide the driver during installation via the Windows 7 setup?
    I understand that there are also two SATA ports for optical drives on a separate controller (for five SATA ports total).
    3)  If I attach my DVD drive to one of the SATA ports intended for optical devices, will the system see it as a bootable device?
    I need to make my DVD drive a boot device in order to install windows, so I'm hoping that the system will see it that way.  I also hope that the SATA ports are labeled on the main board!  (Optical 0, 1 / Disk 0, 1, 2)  ???
    If anyone has the time to help me with these three questions I think I will be more at ease.  I worry about going off the path and ordering a blank machine, but I am adamant about a non-OEM OS.
    BTW, I am moving to the S20 from a five year old IntelliStation M Pro which is the best machine I've owned so far.  I also keep a ThinkPad X61 at my side.  Really looking forward to the new workstation!
    Cheers!

    erik, thank you so much.
    I was thrown off by the Marvell driver in the S20 download page, I think.  Now I'm ready to go.
    Come on Lenovo...
