You can work through these steps for Troubleshooting Windows 7 Failure to Boot leading up to if necessary rescuiing your files to run Recovery from partition or disks or Clean Reinstalling.

The error often means the installer is bad. Download another ISO and burn to DVD or write to flash stick following Steps 1 and 2 in Clean Reinstall - Factory OEM Windows 7.

Will the HD drive show in BIOS?
If YES

We can obviously not see the imaginary information you've posted twice now, as you can see for yourself above.

I also asked for a screenshot giving you the exact steps which anyone can follow, so where is it?

Post back the information we requested or stop wasting our time.
