I have a problem installing windows in my new computer
Hi Mahalo
So I spent a lot of time getting the parts for my new computer, processor core 2 quad, video GeForce 9400, 2 Gb of memory ddr2 and Nvidia mainboard with SLI for easy upgrading in the near future.
I was using my old hard drive, I formatted it, and started installing windows XP, it seems to work at first, but after windows restart the PC for the first time, I get a error message: "Cant read system" or something like that.
No matter how many times I repeat the same operation, I get the same message.
So I tried installing Ubuntu, and I had a similar problem, until I tryed using the "low graphics" option. I am using Ubuntu now.
But I still want windows, so I give Windows 7 a try, this time I got a black screen.
What do you think is causing the problem with windows?
Can I say the installation problem is related to the video card?
What can I do if my mainboard doesn't has a video output besides the videocard?

M$Have you selected all 64 bit hardware and software options, all 32 bit, or a combination?
