I've been recently trying to do a clean install of Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit. I've tried doing many different procedures hoping for the best. I've determined my HDD is not defective, the installation disc is just fine as well. Hopefully I'm posting this in the right section of the forums.
Here is some more information which will give you an idea of what my problem could be:
Motherboard: ASUS M4A88TD-V EVO
Memory: G-Skill Ripjaws 1333Mhz 2x4GB
I've done a clean install of 32 bit Windows 7 Home Premium and it worked just fine, but for some reason 64bit isn't wanting to install properly. Not to mention I even failed installing 32bit for a second time. It gives me error code 0x80070570 which I researched a bit and tried a few things but I couldn't find the problem. In BIOS I attempted to change SATA configuration to AHCI, but when I reached boot menu it still said IDE (default).
I have 2 possibilities to be my problem (ones I thought of).
1. A defective memory module
I wouldn't like to resort to buying a new one unless I'm positive that's the only way.
2. Something wrong with my BIOS sata configuration.
I'm not sure if this is possible but it could be.
I've checked all my hardware and all the SATA cables seem to be fine and everything else in place. Hopefully I will be able to install Windows 7 soon
