If this is a WIndows 8 PC you must disable Secure Boot in BIOS setup, then boot the Win7 DVD as a UEFI DVD drive. Delete all partitions during the install.

A flash stick installer must be formatted for UEFI using only Option One of UEFI Bootable USB Flash Drive - Create in Windows

Downgrade Windows 8 to Windows 7

Secure boot is disabled already and i made usb stick by rufus with gpt mode for uefi. I think i didn't miss anything but idk why i got this error

Then we need to take a look at your BIOS settings choices for CSM, UEFI, Legacy BIOS and BIOS Boot order. Also are there Reset to Defaults for Other OS or Windows 7? Pictures can help.

Did you boot the installer as a UEFI flash stick device?

Do the stick over using Option One and make sure the settings don't jump any when you add the iSO. Compare it to the picture exactly before completing.

The error indicates the flash stick installer failed to boot and attempted to boot the hard drive and Windows instead.

This means the stick is not booting correctly. Try writing it again per my instructions above about Option One. Also make sure you're not trying to boot stick using a USB3 port which is normally blue inside.

If this fails try a DVD burned with Windows 7 USB-DVD Download Tool or another flash stick.

The Windows 7 USB/DVD Download Tool does not work with UEFI.

it wont work i think.

Reading the guide here http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorial...e-firmware-interface-install-windows-7-a.html

I thought it was possible because they mention both DVD and USB.

....unless using 'retail' DVD differs from a DVD burned from the ISO ..!

Yes you can use the download tool to burn the DVD. You only need the special Rufus tool to format UEFI flash stick

That's what I suggest:

Burn DVD
Keep UEFI boot mode
Install from DVD and see if it works

I'll try next monday because I'm out of office !

If you have an ISO you could burn it, otherwise we have to wait

Are you using a USB2 port to try to boot the installation stick? There are no USB3 drivers in the Win7 installation media. A USB3 port is usually blue inside.

i tried on both but nothing changed.

As that is a WIndows 8 netbook, where did you get Win7? How do you plan to activate it?

If you already own a WIn7 license, for what version is it? How much RAM does the netbook have as you might want to install 32 bit if 3gb RAM or less, in which case you'd disable UEFI.

I have win7 ultimate license and got 8gb ram so i cant use 32 bit. I know i can install if i disable uefi but i want install win7 with uefi mode
