    What happens when you try to boot from the CD?

    Try disconnecting the hard drive, and set the BIOS to boot from the CD first.

    Yes it is a rapid constant beeping but i dont think its ram because i can run vista on the same computer just off of a different hard drive and it works perfect. so i think its a hard drive issue.

    Answer to questions:
    1. I only interchanged the rams to see if there the problem but as i said it probably isnt the ram since vista works flawlessly.
    2. Reset bios. No change.
    3. No Spills.
    4. Not dropped.

    Hopefully this will help get to the bottom of the problem. Thanks for help.
    So... let me ask... You had this issue and when troubleshooting you plugged in the old HDD and it booted into Win Vista, is that correct? OR?

    As Jonathan stated, you may need to repair or reinstall Win7.

    Please keep us updated as to your progress or lack thereof!

    I dont have a windows 7 CD so i cannot repair or boot off the cd.
    Also, maybe i didnt make this clear my computer has two hard drive bays. So both hard drives are in the computer at the same time. Hopefully that helps.
    Thanks.

    Also, not sure if this changes anything but i had recently had a problem that required me to delete the recovery partition on the windows 7 hard drive.

    yet another update, before this started happening i deleted some files in c:
    the files were:
    g50.bin
    KQ21.txt
    Recovery.dat
    setup.log
    bootsect.bak
    and maybe some others.

    I dont know how to get those back or if they are even causing the problem but maybe that helps.

    Alright i followed instructions, repair disk didnt work. The start up repair told me that there was a usb device attached that was making it not work but there werent any. So i did a system restore...didnt help. thanks for the help but back to the drawing board i guess.

    Try the process again with all unnecessary hardware removed or unplugged. Only your boot drive, etc.

    Do you have a USB KB or mouse?
