So a friend had me put together his new computer for him, e6600, 8800gtx, 4 GB ram, sata dvd-rw, and a pata drive. Everything went together alright with an Enermax liberty 620, but as soon as I get into the Windows install, it locks up with "34 minutes remaining." Does this sound like a problem with the board? I've tried a different CD, dvd drive, hard disc, and video card. I've also got some ram I can try, but I can't see it helping.

is this a motherboard problem?

This isn't a problem with the motherboard, although it a hardware-related problem. I've encountered it before, but got around it eventually, although I'm not quite sure how. Even Microsoft recognizes the problem: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/828267

If that happens, I just reset and usually it will overcome the problem and finish installing.
