Hi and welcome to sevenforums

Where did you get your win 7 dvd from and how did you burn it (using what app and how fast did you burn it). Did you format the hard drive? have you partitioned the HD?

i downloaded the windows 7 from somewhere,it was iso file already and i burned it with nero.Do i have to format the hard drive when im the first one to turn this computer on? its brand new. i dont remember how fast i burned it,maybe 16x idk exactly.

ok,i filled my system specs as much as i know about them

Don't think it's a bad burn as the XP cd won't install either.

i also cant install xp on the computer

Any error messages?
