Okay.. DOwnload the 64bit version and installed it onto a seperate HD... When I launch Windows 7 it first stopped after selecting it (Between the 2 OS's) and said it had a missing file, etc. etc.

I then restarted it in safe mode and it just restarted, I then ran it normally and it went past this and got to the Starting Windows (With Windows logo) screen, which after it gives me a blue screen for a split second and restarts...

I downloaded a MD5 Checksum Checker but dont really know how to use it... I believe I need a correct HASH number to compare it with? Where can I get this I can only find the 32bit version on the net...

Also could this be happening because I maybe wrote the DVD to fast? But it installs fine without errors? Also the PC I got the HD from (old pc) which I tried to install Ubuntu on a few months back also gave me blue screens... Could the Hard Drive be at fault?
 
Yeah sounds like a dodgy HDD, especially since ubuntu was giving blue screens.
 
Nah was the hard drive... Created a 20gig partitiion on my 500Gig and installed it... Worked fine... Actually using it now... Coming from XP its a bit confusing...

Also it doesnt pick up the other partition with all my files on so cant really test anything... It is faster... But a clean install always is.. Ive got the 64bit version coming from 32bit XP... Bit still cant say its faster because of that either ;)
