    Hi! I recently acquired an Aspire 7520 which had Vista originally on. Earlier, I decided to switch up my OS to Windows 7 64-Bit. But after the installation, after the final restart, I got a black screen with a white blinking cursor on the upper left side of the screen.

    I didn't get the chance to see any Windows logo. I tried putting the disc again but when I restart, nothing happens.
