Has the disc been tested on another machine ?
If it`s asking for drivers it`s probably not a proper burn job.

ya i don't think it was. i think i found them thanks to the texans fan
im having the worst time with this. What a waste to get a new hardrive.
Tell me more! What is happening ? Give me more info about this desktop? What was the Old HD ? What is the new HD ? Do you know how to get into Bios setup ?
The installer is always the problem with that error. All SATA drivers are in the disk. You need to burn your licensed version to DVD using ImgBurn, not use a buggy AIO.
Where did you get Win7? How are you activating it? Answer before we go any further.
ok mabye ill try getting a diff version of windows 7. any ways the computer is a emachine t5224. intel pentium d processor 820. u can prob get all the detail specs on the emachine website. it used a sata WD 250gb hd.The new harddrive is a wd black 1tb sata hd. and bios only when something was install. i think i hit like f12 as the pc is loading up to get into the bios setup.
You may need a BIOS update to recognize the 1tb HD.
The drivers are almost all in the Win7 installer or delivered quickly after install via optional Windows Updates, but you'll need to buy a copy of Win7 first.

vista came with it and i have the product key on the sticker it was on the back of the pc faded but i can make it out.
You can`t use a Vista key to activate Windows 7. But if you manage to install it you have 30 days. And even that can be extended. Why don`t you just buy windows since you don`t have a key.
