I've had this problem for 3 days now and googled all I can! I have come
across people who have also had the same problem but found no conclusion
to it!

I have a Asrock MOBO, amd quadcore processor, 6gig ram...

Basically when installing vista x64 it does everything perfect untill
it gets too expanding files and it just stays there at 0%, first time I
tryed it, it got to 22% and just stayed there... My HDD is IDE not
SATA/SATAll does that make any difference? Or am I on the wrong tracks?
I thought maybe my HDD wasnt set up right in the BIOs and tryed every
setting and have the same effect.. I've build the PC myself :rolleyes:

reading threads in order for al my ram to be used and to have advantage
taken of my spec I really need vista x64 not only that half the software
I use doesnt work on xp x64!

You using a valid retail version of Vista? What service pack level is the
DVD? Did you use advanced install and delete/create/format a new partition?

You really give no information.

Suggest you go to the forums hosted by the M/B manufacturer and see what
others have to say about this problem.

Also make certain that your memory is supported!
