Towards the end of the Windows x64 installation, I got a memory dump complete screen and a some error that said to contact the vendor.

Then when I restart the computer and press F1 to continue, I just have a blank screen and it won't do anything. Any idea what this could be? Hardware or BIOS problem?

how many sticks you got in there for memory? also, is this a clean install or are you installing over a previous xp install?

have you checked the motherboard/memory compatibility? have you tried a xp32 bit install?

I got the EPoX EP-9NPA+Ultra and I believe it is compatible with that RAM, not completely sure though, haven't tried a xp32 install.

ok. check with epox about being compatible with that corsair, then if it says it is... try only 1 stick for the install. is the 64 bit install a download and burn? or a cd from ms? If im thinking right, its probably a burn, and could be a bad burn. Check that your bios supports win64 also...
