Error while installing Win7 64bit; 'Unexpected error'
Hi, whoever's reading this.
I recently wiped my drive with both diskpart -> full clean and clean to try and fix up my drive so that I could use it again after a nasty virus infection, but nothing seems to be working right now, including my drive. After my most recently diskpart -> clean, I tried to reinstall Win7, and got an error during the installation; after rebooting, I got a different error that seems to loop in a reboot->error->reboot cycle.
The error title is "Install Windows", and the text reads:
The computer restarted unexpectedly or encountered an unexpected error. Windows installation cannot proceed. To install Windows, click "OK" to restart the computer, then restart the installation.
I got a Win7 repair .iso online and burned it to a USB and made a bootable USB. I also have my Win7 upgrade disk that I've been using to reinstall Win7, but regardless of which method I use, I get the error and get kicked right back out. I've tried to do as much as I possibly can to fix/diagnose/anything this issue, but I haven't figured much out, and google doesn't seem to have much either.
Help, anyone?
