hi, new guy here.

im having a problem installing any windows 7 with x64 architecture. after the first part of installation, it restarts then when it reaches the "starting windows" screen it restarts again,after that it proceeds to a screen that says "windows failed to start. a recent hardware or software change..." where it wants me to repair the computer,( which doesn't help). but when i install windows 7 32bit or x86 architecture it installs smoothly.

i have:

ECS G33T-M2 motherboard
INTEL CORE 2 DUO E6850 processor

just recently installed 7gb RAM, and 32 bit only uses 2.7gb of them. that's why i need to install 64 bit. is this a compatibility issue?
