    When i try to install win 7, it starts to load then freezes when goes to window startup.
    hd can be tested successfully.
    have tried 3 or 4 different functional hds, even with os pre-installed.
    the pre-installed hds freeze at bootup or give blue screen an error 7b or c.
    upgraded the bios, run xp-mini program from cd fine.can see hd from that program, even formatted c drive too.
    have run out of options.
    bios does not seem to have any hd options or a place where it lists any harddrives.
    tried loading xp with ahci drivers with same results.
    get blue screen with 7c error
