HElP DELL LAPTOP

[Etfreak1]

Help! I have a Dell inspiron M5030, I wiped the hard drive and I tried to install windows 7, but it gives me an error when trying to install. Do I have to get the Dell reinstallation disk or can I use an iso? I have installed windows on many other pc's but this one wont let it install.HELPME.....

It sounds like the dvd is corrupt. Try another. If that fails I do not have an answer as generally, Dell's install disks just add some logo's and maybe an app that goes to there website. A 'normal' media install should work.

I have tried windows 8 on usb and installation goes fine but wont load windows at start up just stays black with no mouse cursor

Did you change the boot order back to hard drive 1st?

Really?, ok here is what happened now it said prepairing devices, but after 50% it skipped an screen went black
