    Client of mine has bought his Laptop ASUS U31S yesterday and he asked me to install windows 7 ultimate (origin was windows 7 home edition) beside other operating system Linux and Solaris.

    I divided the 500 GB hard disk but didn't touch the hidden partition that has recovery.

    I formatted the C partition that had windows 7 home edition and install a fresh copy of windows 7 ultimate,,,,,the process was smooth , first restart asking about username and computer name , password,,,etc ,,,,but with the second restart, PC kept rebooting without completing the windows installation.

    Although I have used the same widnows 7 CD for his other new laptop and the installation went smooth without any problem

    What could be the cause of this issue ?

    Regards
