    Can you post up a camera snap of Diskpart commands you're running from installer's Command Prompt?

    If it truly stalls then I'd test the HD with the two tests suggested earlier.

    Where did you get the installer? Did you burn the DVD yourself?

    It was his 7 premium disc. Its installed on a partition of my laptop as we speak. I am creating a backup if it to my external with acronis then I will put the original hdd back and restore using the acronis boot disc.

    If that doesn't work its probably the hdd and I will run extensive tests on it.

    Sir greg,

    Would this statement is one of the cause without retrieving of some information from the SATA? Problem if his friend have done a wrong move and formatted the drive?

    I put my hdd in from my laptop. Installed windows to a partion. Used acronis boot disc to decide where to put the system partition and the windows partition and presto restored. Problem fixed. I'd love to know a better way to fix this tho.

    We were at the second step which solves about half of these installation stalls, wiping HD with Diskpart Clean Command.

    I was trying to help you troubleshoot why you couldn't run it.

    Had you completed the command it may have installed. If not we would have worked through the other steps to troubleshoot install failure depending upon what results you get.

    Cooperating this way we have a 100% install rate in countless thousands of cases. But you have to get past step two without jumping off into something else.

    Nevertheless I'm glad you got it installed, especially since moving HD to install or reimaging from another machine's installation normally will not start up without Sysprepping or PNP adapting Win7 first.

    Yes I'll admit I get carried away. I was wanting to use acronis to fix to be honest. Its suppose to make everything simple but when I restored it was fine. Afterwards I did a reboot and got the exact same problem I started with. I reinstalled a fresh version of 7 premium and now everything is working fine.

    I wasn't ignoring you its just this dude wants his computer back soon and I thought my way would be quicker. I will use your method on my main machine as I'm going to reformat just because I like to do so once every 6 months or so. Another reason I want to get more familiar with acronis. Restore from backup, no hours worth of updates,brand new.... ya know?

    Regardless thank u for your input and my bad for not being more patient :)
