Ok so i just had a hdd fail on me. bit of a pain but i knew it was going and had transfered all files off it. so luckily a had a brand new one waiting to go in. Did my install of win 7 ultimate, a disc that i used to upgrade and to do a fresh install on a family comp, but on install the program began to hang.
i had a look round the internet for solutions and found that the onboard graphics card driver could be a issue. was informed to uninstall so i did and the install continued. However on start up the system fires up to a black screen i can enter my password and i know it works because i get the windows noise of approval. the desktop then fails to load a just leaves a windows background picture.
currently updating all drivers and will then restart and let you know the results.
Update...
So i updated the drivers and that made it worse wont make any noise indicating system start up so im going to do a restore to before the driver update. but i need help cos this has me stumped.
