most times that error code has to do with ram. but i cant really say until i get the exact code.
did you make sure the ram settings are set to the factory specifaction? have you tried with one stick of ram in at a time?

i did that same thing a couple weeks ago.

boot from the installation disk ->> format OS drive ->> reinstall OS.

unless you dual partitioned or have a separate HDD for an OS you will lose your data, unless you find a way around this.

RAM is always my first suspect in situations like this. If MemTest86+ shows up with errors even with all settings on stock, this indicates hardware faults. Most likely, the RAM is defective.

You using a SATA optical drive by chance??? It's a well known issue with Nvidia chipsets that they'll BSOD on Windows installs when using a SATA optical drive. I see it happen all the time here at the shop. Minute you use an IDE drive it works fine.
