Windows 7 will not install
Hi there guys, I have been trying for the last 3 weeks to fix this issue but no hope.
I had a boot issue on win 7 with it hanging on the boot logo, found a new problem when I boot into safe mode it hangs on "classpnp.sys" part so I bit the bullet and decide to do a fresh install on a sata 250GB seagate drive (which has had win 7 and 8 on it before now, and I did format it properly).
Now I have all the genuine software from XP Pro to Win 8, so I tried doing a fresh install on win 7 with no hope it just hanged on the "boot from CD" screen, so I tried Vista and the same thing happened, tried win 8 the same.
But when I tried XP it installed fine without any problems, so from there I upgraded from XP to 7 installed from disc drive on live desktop in XP and it half installs itself half way through the process where it needs to reboot then it stops.
It hangs on the boot logo "Starting Windows" but without the orbs.
I can get my PC to run XP but anything above that it wont install.
If anyone knows anything that i can try, I am welcome to suggestions.
