2 Computer Problems

[j73l00m]

System Setup

4400 dual core AMD
2x512 mb ram
A8N32 SLI motherboard Asus
Leadtek PX 7900GTX TDH Graphics card 512MB 256 BIT
580 power supply

I am starting up new drive i formated it.

Current hardrive is a 200GB and when i try to install or quickpar something it freezes perma and or reboots randomly

So i got this 250 and am trying to install windows on it but when it boots up it says push any key to boot from CD i push a key but nothing happens once the 5 dots after it show.

push any key to boot from cd .....

But if i push a key before the 5 dots go then it says inspecting your computers hardware and configuration but the screen stays black forever.

I ran Memtest86 to see if my ram was okay and it was i also ran BurninTest which tested my Processor, Vid card and Ram and nothing came up wrong with them.

Currently have my 3.5 floppy disconnected.
And it is disabled in my bios.
I also am using a non wireless keyboard.

Here are the errors in my Event viewer i think associated with the problems

Id like to either be able to install windows on this new hardrive or to get my comp to stop crashing or freezing perma.

I don't know what that means, but is the hard drive seen correctly in the BIOS? Is it the only drive in the machine? It should be for now. Is it jumpered correctly? Is this a legal version of Windows? Home or Pro? Has this machine ever worked correctly?

There was no need to format a new drive beyond what happens during the Windows install.
