    I have a HDD with a SATA port in it. It's 1TB and also it is the only HDD I have in my pc. I disabled Onboard ATA controller and Onboard USB 3.0 Controller and now it doesn't say that drives not found but windows still freezes at starting logo

    I think you have to set BIOS properly.
    - Onboard SATA must be enabled if you have a disk connected to it.
    - SATA must be set to AHCI (unless you have a RAID array).
    - You must disable Secure boot and Fast boot (but don't think you have this option)
    - You must disable JMicron® JMB368 controller (for PATA disks).

    -Onboard SATA is enabled
    -I tried both ACHI and RAID ( nothing on either)
    -Couldn't find Securo boot but I found Secure Virtual Machine mode which I disabled, also I couldn't find Fast boot but I found Quick boot which I also disabled.
    - And finally I couldn't find an option where to disable JMicron® JMB368 controller

    So, I tried to start with these settings but still the same problem as it was.

    Restart installation again.
    Boot from Win 7 installation disk, go to install - Advanced - delete ALL partitions - proceed.

    Are you using a DVD or a USB flash disk?

    As you haven't edit your profile with ALL your specs, we don't know what brand of Win 7 64 you have and what language you use.

    Megahertz07 - I tried the Windows that you suggested to use but it is still the same problem. I don't even know what else to do maybe you have other ideas?

    Layback Bear - I can't even finish install Windows so now there is no point of thinking about how to activate them.
