    Windows 7 restarts on windows logo during install


    Dear All,

    I have a problem installing windows 7 on my laptop.

    So here is the problem : I put an boot-able usb with windows 7 into usb port and start the installation. The windows is copying files and then comes the windows logo and then the PC restarts and goes into infinite loop.

    What I have done:

    >I filled my western digital HD with zeroes and run the full test and there were no errors on the HDD.
    >I run the Memtest v5 and there were also no errors.
    >Currently I'm ruining the Memtest86 v4.3.7 ( at the time there are no errors)

    Did somebody had a similar error with windows installation?

    The Laptop model is Acer Apire 6920G.

    How can I debug what is causing the error?

    Best Regards.

    I don't know exactly what problem you are having.
    I do know that when I do a clean install I use this tutorial by Brink to guide me.

    Dear Jack,

    I try to explain.
    You send me the link to the tutorial.
    So first i see the image 2 " Press any key to boot from Cd or DVD..."
    Here i press "any" key and then the windows is loading files.
    After the load is complete then appears the windows 7 logo and the PC reboots.
    I don't get to the picture 3 of the tutorial that you send to me.

    Best Regards.

    Are you booted into Windows 7 and then trying to do a Clean Install?

    You can not do a Clean Install if your computer is booted into another operating system.

    Where did you get your Windows 7 ISO from?

    I have used that tutorial several times and it has always worked.
    Can you use a DVD to do your install.

    Dear Jack,

    the HDD is empty so there is no OS on my laptop. I'm not booted nor i can enter safe mode or anything.
    I'm doing windows install on empty HDD.

    I use the boot-able USB created with rufus , and i tried the USB on different machine and it works.

    What is the difference if i use USB or DVD as boot media?

    Best Regards.

    Make sure you only have the drive you want to install Windows 7 on is connected.
    DVD seems to make the install easier for some.

    Where did you get your Windows 7 ISO and do you have a proper COA key?

    Dear Jack,

    I only have one HDD on my system.

    If the USB is working on other machine then the USB is boot-able.
    The ISO is okay because i can install it on other machine.

    Best Regards.

    Boot from the USB flash disk.
    Go to install - advanced - delete ALL partitions - create new
    Win 7 will create 2 partitions:
    120M- RAW -MSR
    a big NTFS.
    Choose to Install on the big NTFS partition an proceed.

    He says he can`t get that far because the machine reboots for some reason.

    Thnak you AddRAM.

    Her is the Memory test screenshot, so I think I can say the RAM is ok: attachment

    Is it possible that the GPU does the problem? Is there a software like Memtest for graphic card?
    When does actually graphic card com in play in windows 7 boot?

    Best Regrds.
