Cannot install Win 7 Home Premium 32 bit
Hi everyone!
I am trying to do a clean install of windows 7 on my rig,installation goes smoothly until after the first restart at which point i get stuck in an endless rebooting loop on "starting windows" screen.Ive been able to boot into safe mode without restarts so i know it is most likely a driver issue however installation wont continue in safe mode and the only option i have is to restart. I have now reinstalled windows xp which both installs and works fine.So far i have : -tested RAM with memtest - 0 errors -tested harddrive with chkdsk - again,0 errors Can anyone help? And sorry for my bad english. |

You could use:
Driver Verifier - Enable and Disable To test for any corrupted or missing drivers. What is your hard-drive model and make? Where are you installing Windows 7 from? Clean Reinstall - Factory OEM Windows 7 You could create a new Windows 7 Installation DVD/Bootable USB Flash Drive by using the .ISO file within the tutorial, and then installing Windows 7 from the DVD/USB. |

Where did you get Win7? Did you burn the DVD yourself? How?
Try running the installer from XP to overwrite C, report back. |

Put the DVD in the drive and run it from the XP desktop, selecting C to install upon.

Try replacing the RAM stick now to see if it is recognized and works - sometimes it only needs to be removed for install. You can also swap slots. Then I'd stress test it overnight with memtest CD.
