Constant BSOD on windows 7 install

[Skurge]

So I put together the rig in my sig.

So 1st of all my HDD isnt being detected by the PC at all and causes it to post for much longer than usual. I replaced that with an older 80GB IDE drive that seems to work fine.

I used Windows 7 USB Download tool to copy the ISO over to a 4GB USB stick to install windows from, but after if finishes the part where it says "windows is loading files" it BSOD's at the starting windows screen. I usualy get 3 different BSOD's.

MACHINE_CHECK_EXCEPTION, PAGED_FAULT_IN_NON_PAGED_AREA and a BSOD with no messeage, in no particular order

I tried with different RAM, I tried with a single stick in each slot, I tried with graphics card. Im getting a Celeron soon and will try with that CPU to see if that does anything, but any help would be welcome.

2 gb is a bit low for 64-bit

We aren't talking about vista here. 2gb is fine depending what he wants to do with the machine.

This error can be caused by faulty hardware, anti-virus software, a corrupted NTFS volume or a bad system service, according to Microsoft. We can probably rule out software, since this is a new build. I usually see this with RAM issues, but I would make a bootable CD with SeaTools for DOS and test the hard drive. You can also rule out some other issues by burning Windows 7 to a DVD.
