reinstallation dvd hangs on starting windows screen
win 7 home prem 64 bit..dell sent a reinstall dvd, i put it in the computer, which is dell inspiron 620, hit any key, see the white bar across the bottom windows loading files, next screen says starting windows, and thats it... it hangs there frozen.......before i did this.......the other day .i did a quick format on the HD, while i had it out and hooked up to my sata adapter to my other good working computer.....
i didnt have the dvd that came with the computer, so dell sent me the reinstallation dvd......if all went well, then id have to download the needed drivers etc.........BUT i cant get it to get past the starting windows screen.............i set defaults in F2 then changed boot setting to boot from cd/dvd...nothing else was touched or changed.......its a seagate 1Tb hd and when its hooked to adapter its fine.....before i wiped it clean/formatted it, i removed all the threats and crap, and moved important things from it....This is my sisters dell comp and i took it to get it running again.........
Ive read so many sites and info on what to do, but nothing works or pertains to the computer......anyone here help with this??? short of paying dell tech support over a 100 bucs, which i wont do....or get a new HD, i dont know why it wont go past the starting windows screen
