Hello!
I have a problem with installing windows 7 on my pc.
When i boot from dvd i get the "windows is loading files" and i get the win7 background but then nothing happens. Please help! Is it mayby becasue of an old mb driver? My disc is burnt on hi quality media and i burnt at a slow speed.

calamocha do you have a USB drive bigger than 4GB? You could attempt to load Win7 from USB to eliminate DVD from the equation and to save time.
If that doesnt work, i would save your key and re-download the file from Mr Gates because MSDNAA has sent out bad downloads recently. There are a few students this semester who have had successful downloads but the file is broken in some way or another. I had to re-download Visual Basic 10 for this reason.

DDP that is how to make a USB bootable, but you dont need any special files added to make win7 run. You really only need to make sure the board can boot from USB and extract the ISO to it. Or have this help you http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/mss..._usbdvd_dwnTool
