hi
i am trying to install windows 7 64 bit on my new custom build, put i keep getting this message:"windows setup could not configure windows to run on this computer's hardware", but with the same HDD in my old pc i installed win 7 32 bit.
any idea why???
 


mobo: MSI A78M-E35
cpu: amd athlon ii x4 860k black edition
ram : HyperX HX318C10F/4 4GB 512M x 64-Bit DDR3-1866 CL10 240-Pin DIMM
HDD: Western Digital WD5000AAKX Caviar BLUE HardDisk, 3.5 inch
gpu :Sapphire R7 240 1GB GDDR5 WITH BOOST

and i flashed the iso to a usb with YUMI and doing a custom install (doing it the same as the first time when it worked but at the end it comes up with that message)
 

yes directly from the usb, cant remember were i downloaded the iso becose iv had it for a while(its a pirated version i think)

 

are these the ones i need ? (http://support.amd.com/en-us/download/chipset?os=Windows+8+-+32)??
if not can you link me to them???

 


Well then. There may lie your problem.
Buy a valid OS, and your problems will magically disappear.

In any case, you can't get any assistance for pirated software in here.
Closing this.
