1) пробовал ставить с разных дистрибов виндузы (причем на компе 2 установил винду на винт 1 (потом снес, т.к. все равно не грузился)) – не помогает – всегда одну и туже ошибку выдает(выше уже говорил)
2) перетыкал оперативку
3) проверял шлейфы
4) форматировал, делал примари актив и все такое (partition magic)
5) зашел на сайт мелкософта, что нашел там:
