I just rebuilt my HTPC, replacing the motherboard and HD, and now whenever I attempt to install Windows MCE after booting off the CD, the power mysteriously cuts off in the middle of the process and the whole system shuts down. Needless to say it's hugely annoying. I'm using an MSI K8NGM2-FSI motherboard, Antec Aria case w/ 300-watt power supply, Athlon 64 3200+ processor, Western Digital 320 GB SATA HD and a "brand x" IDE DVD-ROM drive ang 1GB of Corsai Value Select RAM. BIOS settings seem to be what they should be. I can't for the life of me figure out what the problem is, but I hope/assume it's something simple. Any suggestions on how to start troubleshooting?
