Black screen of death when installing Windows 7 from USB.
Hello, I have a Samsung NP-N150 mini notebook that I have been trying to install Windows 7 starter back onto. I do not have an external disc drive that I can use so I followed a Youtube video and transferred my files from the Install disc to an 8 GB USB flash drive. I changed the boot order to show the USB flash drive as 1st but when I go to power on with the USB drive plugged in, all I get is the black screen of death with the flashing cursor in the top left corner. I have wiped the HDD in another computer and tried installing with the USB again and still just the black screen of death. I saw a post stating to change something in the BIOS but there is only setup and recovery options when the computer boots up, no BIOS option. If anybody has any suggestions or ideas that could help me out, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance.
