Ikahn,
Where did you get your Win 7?
I made the ISO from the disk. Its the latest version with sp 1.
I bought in from newegg.com.
I did the bios reset though
Still no dice.
But I don't know how to set my bios to AHCI. That could be the issue.
Right now gunna install win xp pro sp1. Update to sp3 and try to boot disk from desktop.
I've been stuck for a week any help would overjoy me lol
I've given you multiple steps to try, report back.
1. Did you get a 25-character Product Key? Did the DVD come in original packaging?
Do NOT put the key into your post. That's what costs the money and not the DVD.
2. Ikahn:
Update your system specs to best of your abilities.
Your present entry there is a joke and completely useless.
Don't forget to enter the manufacturer of the computer and the model.
3. Once you get XP installed, then the first order of business is:
Run the Upgrade advisor: Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor - Download - Microsoft Windows
There is no sense in trying to install Win 7 if the advisor says you have serious problems.
Include the Advisor report in your next post.
====================
That's three points.
Carry out all three.
OK thank you both
All 3 win7s I bought came in orig packages. I know the key Is what you pay for lmao. The other 2 installs I did with the other 2 copies worked fine...no problems at all. I just finished installing win xp sp3 I'm going to get my internet setup then I'll do the upgrade advisor and report back.
1. Bought 3 copies from Newegg.com. The windows cd's/keys arent the problem trust me.
2. The txt file is from speccy it should give you all the info you need. If not ask me for more :]
3. I downloaded and ran it. Says I have no problems really. I dont know how to save it so i can upload it here. Will a screen shot suffice?
