Having trouble installing Windows 7 on a computer I built

I can't start the computer in safe mode, the only things I can modify are either in the BIOS or the hardware itself. This is a blank computer I'm trying to install Windows 7 on. You think it's the graphics card giving me problems?

Maybe not.
Have you tried reverting back to a non sata state and installing. Maybe a problem there.

Sorry, don't understand what you mean by "revert back to a non sata state." As far as I can tell there isn't anything to revert back to. The hard drive hasn't even been used yet, I haven't been able to get far enough in the installation process to put anything on it. The only changes I've made are to the BIOS (boot order, ACHI, and I think that's all) and to hardware (removing RAM, replacing power supply).

Someone on another forum solved the problem. Moral of the story: always check to make sure your RAM doesn't require different than normal voltage! Changing my BIOS to have my RAM at 1.65v fixed it. Thanks to everyone who responded for you help.

That's peculiar, because 1.65 VDC is the normal voltage for most DDR2 & DDR3 RAM.

All motherboards for that type of RAM are default at those voltages. One has to go into the BIOS to change the voltages up higher.

I use Mushkin Enhanced Blackline RAM and it's voltage must be set at 2.0 - 2.1 VDC to run properly at it's timings and frequency.

People tend to forget that RAM is not a piece of generic hardware like it was 10 years ago or longer.

I was just thinking if you had of defaulted the BIOS it may have also solved the issue. Picked up a similar problem on a PC and that did the trick
