Hey everyone,

I am having trouble with windows 7 installation. Every time I try to install windows 7 professional, it goes to expanding windows files and stays at 0% and I tried this with 3 dvd-rs that I put windows 7 on through Microsoft dreamspark, and I keep trying to put it on my new western digital blue 750 gig hard drive

Can someone please help

Please fill out your system specs. See here: How to See Your System Specs with "System Info"

What OS was originally on the computer? Are you trying to downgrade to Windows 7?

What program are you using to create the DVD from the downloaded ISO?
I recommend using Imgburn and select 4X or the slowest speed possible.

If you are using DVD-R then try DVD+R.

And I am using Windows Disc Image Burner to burn the disc.
Originally Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit was on here but it crashed then I reformated the hard drive and put Windows 10 on here then that crashed so I put Windows 7 Professional on here and it has been working ever since

So why aren`t you reinstalling Home Premium ?

Do you have a key for Pro ?

You most likely have a bad installer, where did you get the Pro iso file from ?

Download a fresh iso or create one from your HP disc, use this program to burn the iso file at no more then x4 speed.

Free ISO Burner

When windows crashed, there was no way to get Windows 7 Home Premium back since it wouldn't even boot off the hard drive and that meant no recovery or anything so a new version of windows had to be installed and we didn't have a windows 7 home premium disc at the moment. I do have a key for pro. I got the iso off of Microsoft Dreamspark
