So I had installed Windows 7 and it was working fine but it blue screened and now it won't start. Fine, I decided I'd just reinstall it but if I put my flash drive in it will just stick at the Acer Empowering People splash screen and won't move for a while and then just goes to a screen about something being not connected and then it'll boot to the normal start Windows Recovery (Which doesn't work) and start Windows normally. If you try to start it normally it'll either stay on the Windows animation starting or get to login and then i'll input my password but it goes to Blue Screen.
I formatted the flash drive using this guide http://kmwoley.com/blog/?p=345
I've tried having USB FDD and USB HDD as the first boot option and still nothing.

Also, I can't boot into safe mode. It just stops loading files and will eventually reset.

could be a faulty installation..?

There's a good chance you're missing a step in the guide. Try following it again, or use a different guide to do it. With flash drive bootups, you have to make sure you're doing everything correctly or it won't work at all...
