Solved Windows 7 installation error on Samsung laptop.

I am trying to install Windows 7 on a Samsung NP300E5E laptop. The laptop had Windows 8 pre-installed.

I followed your tutorial on how to do a clean installation of Windows 7, followed the UEFI route using a usb that I created by using the setup dvd as described in the tutorial and changed all settings in the setup.

After the laptop did a reboot during last part of the setup, it doesnt want to go any further, just gives an installation error stating that the setup will continue after rebooting, and then reboots and does the same again. No error number to go by.

What am I doing wrong?
