Blue screen while installing Vista 64 bit

[Guest Maz]

Hi there , i've got a problem with Vista 64 bit , when i try to install it on

my pc , during the installation like half way through or something it gives

me a 'Crash and Dump" blue screen for some reason , i noticed that happening

when i added 2gb extra to my memory , i had 2 gb now i have 4 gb or DDR2 PC

6400 800MHZ , but when that happened i thought it might be from the new Rams

that i bought "mind you they are exactly the same , identical !!" so i took

the old 2 off and i kept the 2 new sticks in , and i tried to reinstall Vista

, and it installed perfectly no hassle at all ... so the new Rams that i got

are good and nothing wrong with them , so what i'm guessing the problem is

that Vista 64 bit is not liking the idea of 4GB of Ram !!! so is there

anybody that have been through this before , or anyone suggest anything ??

i have Asus Crosshair motherboard and AMD x2 5200+ CPU , and i just flashed

my bios to the latest version that Asus has, but that didn't help ! so please

if you have any suggestions i would appreciate you telling me about them ...

sorry for the long explanation

and thanks everyone

Hi, Maz.

 

I'm not Carlos, but did you read the second line under "Workaround" of that

KB article 929777?

 

"Remove 2 GB of RAM, and then restart the installation process. After

Windows Vista is installed, reinstall the RAM."

Re: Blue screen while installing Vista 64 bit

 

Hi Maz,

I referred you to the MS KB on account of the workaround, which you seem to

have understood and applied.

I have not yet figured out the use of the hotfixes mentioned there (still

runnin' on 2 gigs of mem down here).

Re: Blue screen while installing Vista 64 bit

 

You'd have to build a streamlined Vista install image that included the

updated files. More pain than most would want to deal with, but well worth

it if you're deploying to many workstations. The new Windows Deployment

Services makes it somewhat easier to create a custom WIM image and deploy

it. But for a single install? Pull the RAM, install, shutdown, re-insert the

RAM, and continue on about your business.
