I had the same problem, i fixed it, kinda... i pulled of the side of my PC and cleaned it, blew the dust outa the cables, removed my graphics card and used my onboard one just for the setup, and took out all the parts that didnt come with my computer and it worked

Yeah, try removing all. But that's only if you know what you're doing. Are you removing the existing partition?
