installation process Windows 2003 enterprise server

[hakkuldeep]

I am trying to build a server using a pentium 4 quad core processor, 500 gb
wd hd, 2.0 gb of ram, 500 watt power supply. When i try to install the server
2003 from cd , it guides the process and when it displays that 35% of files
are being installed and need 35 minutes to complete, it powers off the
computer totally. I have tried 4 times to load the software and always it
happens like as i stated. Processor is not getting hot as fan is working
efficiently, chip set heat sink is not getting hot either. i have tried to
use different ram stick with no much help. What could be the problem as all
components are brand new. Any answer/help to solve this issue will be
appreciated.
Thanks

If there's no blue screen or other error then it must be hardware failure.

Test installing the OS with one stick of RAM, if it fails replace it with
the other and test again.

I would guess there is a bad chip on one of the sticks of memory that does
not show itself until the computer loads enough stuff in memory for it to be
used.
