I am having more major problems. I did the repair install after uninstalling sp1. The first time, it froze up at a screen "upgrading windows" and the normal background. The hard drive light did not do anything for around 4 hours so I restarted the computer. It told me that the upgrade was not successful, and my computer was working fine. I tried it again before I went to bed, and when I came up in the morning, all I got was a black screen that said "Windows 7 Build 7600 This copy of windows is not genuine" I have never been told that before, and my copy is in fact genuine. I tried restarting, and got the same thing. I tried restarting in safe mode, and that looked promising, until it said that I can not do it in safe mode and told me to restart.
I have used my installation disk 3 or 4 other times to create different virtual machines.
I got it from tiger direct http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=5213934&CatId=306
It never asked me for my validation key either.
I cannot press ctrl alt del or anything like that to try to run something.
EDIT: After a lot of stress and frustration, I realized that the repair install had set my tv as the main monitor, and that it was working fine, just hiding from me. I'll let you know how it goes from here....
