Just like everyone else i acquired a copy of the 6801 build after the PDC. Installed it at school and had no problems what so ever. Went home and tried to do a clean install and BSOD FTL!! Its funny though because it runs and install perfectly fine in VMware. But any way, has anyone else encountered this problem or have a way to fix it? I would love to be able to mess around with this build at home. Setup runs perfectly fine until the part that says "starting windows". I think its the third restart. I get to the point that says "setting up devices & settings" or something like that and bam BSOD.. with out fail. Uh here is a list of things i tried: Integrate the drivers with vlite (didn't work cuz i think they changed the way the drivers are integrated but vlite didn't show any errors so idk) upgrade from vista (didn't work cuz it didn't copy the vista drivers... but i did this as a shot in the dark) disabled audio. not the problem disabled my network card (wasn't the problem) I know its not my raid controller cuz thats the drive i was installing to and my raid controller is in ide mode anyway I can't get a good look at the blue screen since windows auto restarts by default....(really annoying they should change this dammot) I'm thinking of trying to remove some drivers with vlite... although im not sure that'll work or if drivers are really the problem. and im gonna grab the 64bit version and see if i got the same problem. Oh yea here are my system specs Motherboard - MSI K9NGM4, Nvidia MCP68 Chipset Processor - AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200+ 2.2 GHZ Ram - 2GB
