    Windows 7 with 8 developer preview

    Is Yours restarting ??


    Hellow,

    I successfully installed windows 8 developer preview using VHD ( Virtual Hard Disk ) It worked fine and I installed my mother board drivers too, later on It started to restart, after restart it was working for few minutes and and again restart, When after a restart it asked to send the error report to microsot and it is some thing about MEMORY,

    My system is -

    2.5 dual core
    Foxconn G31MX motherboard
    1 GB RAM
    onboard VGA
    1TB hard disk 50 GB for VHD

    Please help me to find out the reason for this

    Thank you,
    Rakhitha.

    I created a VHD and successfully installed win 8, bt it begun to restart twice and third time it doesn't even boot, It stopped at " Verifying DMI pool data..." screen and nothing anything happened.

    Then I used UBUNTU live boot CD and deleted VHD file and still the same, then I restarted using restart button on the CPU case and nothing happen, after I booted my PC with windows 7 disk and repaired, in that way I was able to protect my data and now its normally working. wat was the reason for that can you help me? is there anything wrong in my win 8 downloaded .ISO ???

    Oh no, never again dude, I wasted whole day of today for this and I was gonna lost ma win 7 too, But I was able to protect that very sharply, So I dismissed the favor to use win 8,

    BTW this can b a prob of screen resolution.

    I used VHD method and then I installed a clean installment to my other HDD too and both ways I face the same error.
