It seems like this problem has been popping up a lot and I've read threads on it all over the place, but it doesn't seem like any solutions have been posted anywhere yet.

 

Was curious if there was any word on what the problem is?

 

I'm trying to clean install from XP and not long after you select "Install" from the Win 7 welcome page do you hear the DVDROM stop spinning, then the screen hangs for 5 mins, then you get the message.

 

Solutions posted so far that I have tried:

 

1. Burning slower, with different burning software: 8 DVD's so far, all burned at 2X or 1X, with no antivirus turned on, and using various different ISO / IMG burning progs.

 

2. USB Flash drive installation: Created the USB but my motherboard won't boot from USB.

 

I've compared the files on the burned discs to the ISO files and they are the same so I don't think the issue is the burning process, although I'm sure many people burned at like 16X and found it didn't work until they burned again at 2X.

 

Any info would be appreciated.. All backed up and ready for a new format here!
