Root Help! Flashed CM7 and it worked fine, tried to flash google apps and phone rebooting!

I flashed CM7 over 6, and then there weren't any google apps so I flashed those. Now when ever I press "touch the android to begin" it reboots, then loads the screen again, etc. what should I do? It was working fine until i tried to flash the google apps.
 
I had this exact experience yesterday..even performing a "factory reset" clearing every cache in recovery and reinstalling the zip file couldn't stop the bootloop. Ended up solving it by reverting to a nandroid backup, paying for the full version of rom manager and using that to install a different nightly build and the proper gapps in one go...worked great and I'm loving cm7 so far.
 
If you have a problem again, i'd recommend not using rom manager to flash the rom and use clockwork directly to clear data and flash the rom.
 
Ironically, I think I flashed the failed version from recovery and had success with rom manager, but I think I flashed the wrong gapps file or something like that the first time.
