Can't get the Windows 7 beta to work :(

So I created a new partition on my HDD (20gb) and tried to put windows 7 on it...It would go all the way through the installation, then at the very end when it would reboot and try to start it said something about Windows couldn't be configured to work on your hardware.

I'm running:
Asus P5Q SE mobo
Intel E7200 OC'd to 3.5ghz
8gb of RAM
8800 GTS

I'm pretty sure I met the min. requirements, why did this fail?

It did say when the installation started it recommended you have at least like 28gb of free space, but the actual Windows 7 website said you only need 20gb...
 
I think you might have better luck taking out some of your RAM for the installation, maybe just run 4GB or maybe even 2GB just to install.

If it says 28GB...might want to make your partition bigger.
