Can't install OS on my PC, can on others.
I've been trying to reinstall Windows 7 on my PC every since I tried to install Ubuntu 10.04 on a separate HDD and it messed up my Windows 7 x64 on my first HDD. I thought maybe it was my Windows 7 disc so I got another one but still have the same problem. I tried installing Windows Vista and Windows XP after that with the same problem. So I tried a different HDD but it still wouldn't go. I took my Windows 7 disc and HDD to a different computer and it worked the first time. So now I'm assuming it's a hardware problem. I ran memtest with no errors found. I've tried different SATA cables with the same result. Oh, and Ubuntu never worked in the first place either. Also, my BIOS seems to load up a lot slower than it used to so I tried reflashing it with the same results. Can anyone give me any insight to what my problem could be? Thanks!
