I had Windows 7 installed and operating perfectly for over a month but I accidentally deleted it. I have a Dell XPS 630i with 4Gig ram which I purchase less than 6 month ago. I have three hard drives. XP Pro is on disk 1, Vista is on disk 2 and I have Microsoft Server 2008 on disk 3 partition 1 and Win 7 on disk 3 partition 2. I wanted to remove MS server 2008 but I deleted Win 7. I used Gparted to delete the partition and then reformated the partition to NTFS.
My problem now is when I try to load Win 7 it stops and displays 0xc00000e9. That error usually means that a device was turn off or unplugged during the install. I only have a mouse and a keyboard connected but I still have the same error.
Any comments why I can't load Win 7 anymore ??
Thanks
It starts to load (I can see bar at bottom moving) but in less than a minute it stops and displays error 0xc00000e9.
My take is that CD is bad. It's only been used ones and it's NOT scratch so it's difficult to believe it's the CD.
"Do you have another computer that you'd be willing to install windows 7 on?"
Yes...same error.
Like I said before. "My take is that CD is damaged. It's not obvious because it's looks physically perfect. I deleted the Win 7 ISO so I can't burn another CD. What I need is another copy of win 7 ISO which is not available anymore.
Can you send me a copy on Win 7 ISO...or a copy of your DVD (if it's 32 bit) ??
Thanks
