Although after the release of each new operating roomsystem, Microsoft is beginning to actively work on developing a new version that takes into account the shortcomings of the previous one, sometimes it is not possible to completely solve the arising problems.
For example, updated in the Seven (Windows 7)the installer turned out to be much more convenient than the unpretentious analogue in Win XP - it's enough to remember the automatic saving of all system folders when reinstalling the operating system. However, even the newest version of the operating system does not guarantee that the end user will not have any problems with the installation. Moreover, not everyone will be able to immediately understand the new added features. Therefore, it is not surprising that the question of why Windows 7 is not installed is quite popular. In this article, we will point out some of the main difficulties that prevent the installation of the system.
It is important to understand that if Windows is not installed7, then this does not mean that nothing can be done. Very often the reason for the abnormal operation of the installer is quite simple, everything can be restored. Below we present an algorithm of actions that must be followed to successfully complete the installation of the operating system.
How to install Windows 7 on a new computer
First of all, you need to prepare a hard disk. Although all modern hard drives are already sold out (the structure is divided into sections, formatted in any file system), it is recommended to perform the markup yourself. Often the question of why Windows 7 is not installed is due to ignoring the stage of working with the disk. You will need to burn a LiveCD image (you can download it from torrents) to a CD or a flash drive and boot from this media. Almost always among the programs there is Paragon Partition Magic or an alternative solution. In this program, all partitions of the new hard drive are deleted and new ones are created in the required quantity, and the file system (FAT32 or NTFS) is also selected. Please note that you should not disassemble using the Windows 7 installer. You can install the system, but with this preparation a hidden 100 MB partition will be created, which can make it difficult to install previous versions of Windows.
Hardware Compatibility
Sometimes it does not install Windows 7,that the configuration of the computer does not meet the minimum requirements of the operating system. So, the processor frequency should be not less than 1 GHz, the amount of RAM - from 512 MB, and the video card should be able to work with DirectX version 9. And the more memory, the better.
Failures in work
Sometimes installation can not be performed due tohardware failure, which had not been shown so clearly before. When a computer hangs or a black screen, MemTest must check for memory errors.
Also sometimes helps check the surfacehard drive. To do this, when starting the installation, you need to select the Recovery Console and type the following command: chkdsk. It's worth checking the connection between the hard drive and the motherboard. Any failure caused by a bad connection in the SATA loop can lead to an inability to install.
Finally, if nothing has helped, you cantry to update the BIOS of the motherboard. In new models, this can be done without the operating system, after writing the BIOS image to the USB flash drive and selecting the corresponding item in the BIOS settings.
