Windows 7 install freezes in Asus Eeepc 1005HA, Help please!
Hello
I have an Asus Eeepc 1005HA netbook, which came with WinXP previously installed. I later changed it to diferent instalations of Ubuntu, until one day, suddenly, the ubuntu didn't boot and i thought the disk had died. After some experimenting, i figured out the disk was ok and successfuly installed WinXP - after many attempts, this was the only OS i could install and only in "Standard PC" mode (f5 trick), which caused other problems with ACPI. But i stuck with it for a while.
No, Win XP is no longer supported, and I would really like to update to Windows 7, but everytime i try to install win7, the installation goes through "Windows is loading files" then it freezes on the "Windows is starting up" Logo. With no disk or usb activity signs. Just the little "bar" of the Windows logo freezed.
If someone could help me I would be super grateful, since this netbook is really important to do my school works and everything.
Best regards.
