I have an HP DC7800p convertible Minitower, and i'm trying to get Windows 7 on it. (Dual core, 6GB RAM...)
I've tried installing from two different Win7 DVDs, as well as a flash USB installer, which I have confirmed work on other PCs.
The installer hangs, with a corrupted screen during the expanding files phase (0%). The screen goes all "glasses 3D" with lines doubled up and the wrong colours.
I tried installing Win7 on the desired HD using a diferent machine, then transplanting the HD to the HP. The system reboots when the logo animation is in its early stage.
I tried to update the BIOS (put .bin file on root of DVD or USB, then use BIOS utility), but it says the file is missing or corrupted.
Oh, and I have TWO identical DC7800p's - they both do this.
What the heck is going on??? Thanks
