Windows 7 installation problems with new hard drive

I have now answered your questions on the DVDs orgin and conditon.

Stick must be specially formatted for UEFI using Step 1 of UEFI Bootable USB Flash Drive - Create in Windows.

DVD is easier. Use 64 bit for UEFI. But how much RAM?

Lets look at your BIOS settings. What are settings choices for UEFI, CSM, Legacy BIOS, Secure Boot and Boot Priority order? Check every tab.

I have 8gb RAM on board,UEFI boot support is Enabled,So is Legacy USB support,i don't see CSM could it be called something else? Boot priority is AHCI CD first then ACHI HDD HDDfollowed by USB Key

With 64 bit disk or UEFI formatted flash stick in drive you need to get UEFI drive choice for DVD or Flash to show up in F12 boot menu. Then it should default during install to Windows boot manager as first boot device in BIOS setup or you'll have to set it that way.

What if you disable UEFI to boot DVD as plain DVD?

You must be missing settings. Can you take pics of every BIOS tab? Attach using paper clip icon.

Also check if there is a UEFI firmware update on
The laptops Support Downloads webpage. This may
Be what's needed. But lets see the BIOS pics first.

Sorry it took so long to reply,i tried disabling UEFI and booted and got the same result as with it enabled.

I browsed your Win7_Vista_Manual_eng.pdf which has nothing pertaining to this.

Here is the Downloads page where there is a Firmware Update download that appears to only be an .exe to run from an installed OS. You should not proceed with any BIOS update until you have precise step-by-step instructions: NP-RV511E (NP-RV511-S02UK) | Support | SAMSUNG UK

Ok,i will do this in the morning as it's 2am here and could do with the sleep,thank you for all your help so far and i hope i get it sorted soon.

I have already updated the BIOS before i started the thread on this forum,it hadn't been updated at all till i did it earlier was 02PA and is now 07PA.

Very good.

So let's make sure you don't get a UEFI DVD boot option with the DVD in the drive. If not then it's not performing as it should with UEFI boot enabled.

So disable UEFI and if it won't install from Legacy DVD choice with UEFI disabled then we need to try another installer to compare. You had a good idea to format a stick using the special tool I linked you. Another idea is to burn another DVD using Windows 7 USB-DVD Download Tool. If you don't have a fresh ISO download for your version of Win7 I will loan you mine.

With UEFI off and legacy enabled it does the same thing again.Interestingly i have another Windows 7 set of disks without SP1 which were for a computer we no longer have or use and have tried both of them and get the same outcome so that points to me to be a problem with it reading boot disks.
