Thanks. I meant to do a clean install, but there was one there before and it looks like I accidentally installed to d:. Looks like I'll have to do it again. Still, doesn't take long.

So I just did a clean install of win10 from a usb. During the installation I split up the C: drive and created myself a d: partition. I normally do this when installing windows.
Now the install...

So I can use google analytics to find out what keywords people used who found my site. That's of limited use, because I got them as customers already.
Is there any info anywhere on all searches...

Did you use it the same way when you first had it? Computer hardware doesn't slow down with age, so it's capable of everything it could do when you got it. You seem to have a fair bit of resource...

Well, the install from USB failed in exactly the same way. I've bought some new hardware now so I'll put win7 on a new machine - surely that has to work :-)
Thanks for all the suggestions.

I tried to do that, but diskpart doesn't see my usb drive, just the hdd.

Thanks JDC but this is where I started, at the beginning of the thread. It's a clean in stall on a new hard drive with freshly created partitions. I did actually do a copy disc using image burn at...

I just tried disabling lan and audio at bootup. There's no bios options for this - according to this they auto-disable if a competing card is installed. So nothing to test there.

I don't have any expansion cards in, I'll try the disable in bios approach. I also retrieved this file 'setupact.log' Any clues here?

Well, I'm glad you're finding this entertaining Reverend :-) To be honest so am I.
On to today's progress. I disconnected usb stuff included the card reader connected to the internal header and...

Sensible call JDC. I don't have one to hand. I have an external, but the bios won't let me boot from it.

Ah, I can try that. There is an internal card reader installed, which is connected to the internal usb header.
As a bit of futher info, when I installed on the laptop, the DVD was spinning away...

Doc - I ran it. It says my hardware is good, just lists a few programmes which may not be supported and is rather uncharitable about my printer.

My, this is a stubborn one.
memtest comes up no errors.
WD HDD test comes up no errors
Reset bios, no change
I tried the same hdd, and the same install disk, on my laptop, and install...

I did see that article on my own search, and it's what lead me to change the sata cable. The DVD I'm installing from is good, and there's only one RAM stick in, 2Gb - since I do fit the 'older...

Good shout, but no. The floppy drive is in a box in the loft, and it's disabled in the bios.

I've just bought a 2TB drive and I'm installing win 7 home premium 64 onto it (or trying to). I've taken out my old drive with xp on, put in the new one and I'm booting off the install disk.

Thanks for these ideas. I used everest to find the exact device and got the driver from realtek. Sorted and running very well, for a £139 pc!

I bought one of these Aspire desktops to set up for a reletive. Because its cheap obviously, maybe a mistake.
Acer only have win8 drivers on their site, but I want to set up win7 and I can't find...

After a recent trojan incident (cleared up by Broni in another thread) I'm now left with an error message on startup - although so far everything seems to be working. The message is this:

Well Broni, you are certainly a star. Can you tell me what you spotted and removed there?
Booting fine now, I ran mbam as soon as I got a clean boot and it found a few things now safely removed.
