Samsung R439 unable to boot after clean installation of Win7 Ultimate
I have an old Samsung laptop R439. It came with Windows 7 professional. Lately it was filled with lots of viruses so I decided to perform a clean install with my genuine Windows 7 ultimate disk. First I formatted the hard drive and created 3 new partitions. Then installed the windows (32bit). Everything went well until I got the "Windows is now preparing your desktop" screen. Then it restarted automatically and then got stuck on starting windows screen. I tried to install again. This time I chose 64bit version to install, but same problem kept occurring. Please help me.
P.S.: I tried to install Windows 10 as well, but it won't go past the Windows logo.
