Please read post # 78 by essenbe again.

As Layback Bear pointed out, I already told you. Do a clean install with a legal copy of Windows 7 and we will be happy to help. Once that is done and has been activated, you may not need any further help, but if you do, please come back here and we will be happy to help.

I switched my hdd around with one from my laptop that is running windows xp and i know this one works fine and it did the same thing. And i did the genuine windows 7 thing where i put in the long line of numbers and it said it was fine?

You first need to do a clean install and get it activated by Microsoft and we will continue from there. A clean install is always necessary when changing Motherboards, and activation is a requirement here. I think you will find your operation much better afterwards.

A clean install and activation is still required.

X usually denotes the installation DVD, I wouldn't mess with that . Plus one thing not to do is change the system files. The system files are there to make the system run right. You can read things all over the internet that are plain dumb. Unless you are a programmer with a lot of experience in the Windows 7 system files and hat they are, I would never change any system files. They are there for a reason. Don't listen to all the garbage on the internet.
