So I just got around to installing windows 7 64bit, it installed fine at first but then I started getting totally random bsods, one which told me that I had a hardware failure (it was referring to my RAM). Little did I know that with some motherboards, if you install Windows 7 with more than 2gb of RAM it can totally freak it out for some reason. It got to the point where I couldn't even boot from DVD to repair it, it just sat there taunting me with "Windows is starting" while I sat drooling staring at the screen for about 10 minutes or so. Anyway, took one stick of RAM out, formatted the drive and it is installing without a hitch. Apparently this can be a problem with older motherboards? My question is once it has fully installed and updated will it then be ok to put back the perfectly fine stick of RAM? I assume it is just the initial Windows 7 install that was wobbly with 4gb. edit: nevermind, the answer is yes.
