I'm trying to install Windows 7 on my HP Pavilion dv5 laptop but to no avail.
The procedure I'm following is this:
- Insert the Windows 7 DVD into my CD/DVD ROM.
- Pressing F9 to execute the bootable menu.
- Select Internal CD/DVD Bootable.
- Press Enter to boot from CD/DVD.
Then there is a black screen with a gray bar loading the setup, and right after the loading process the Windows 7 logo shows (Starting Windows 7).
After this phase I get a black screen whereas all I can see is my mouse on the screen.
I took the same CD/DVD to my desktop computer and just after the last phase (Starting Windows 7) the blue screen of the setup has loaded, that is, the problem is not related to the CD/DVD itself.
Can you please help me understand what I'm doing wrong? Is It possible that I can't install Windows 7 on my laptop because I bought It with Vista included? In the BIOS menu there is a field indicating my Factory OS as Vista.
No problem. Happy to help :) – Karan Raj Baruah – 2013-04-22T01:52:58.940
