I give my PC to my partner as I mainly use my mac now and the PC was being wasted on me.
As the PC had lots of unnecessary programs, I decided to do a fresh install on the PC which uses an Intel 80gb SSD.
When I rebooted with the Win7 DVD (official retail), setup started to load files, and then took me to a screen with a windows logo which beats like a heart and has a scrolling status bar beneath. This screen then loads to a blue/green page where nothing happens.
At this point I can hear the DVD stop spinning and nothing more happens. I am able to move the mouse pointer around the screen but nothing more. I also tried using both Win7 DVD discs and there was no issues. I then connected the SSD to my laptop to perform a format in case this was causing an issue. Format complete and the same issue arises when trying to install. Last thing I could think of was to do a bios reset but that has not changed anything.
Any ideas what this could be?
