(pardon my w and e keys, they are quite sticky)
I've been trying to reinstall Windows 7 on my HP notebook after a virus forced me to and ran into some issues. It was getting to the screen where the final batch of settings was beeing done, and i got a message asking if I wanted to restart now or later. I coudn't make a selection because neither of my mice or my keyboard would work, so in my stupidity I powered it off myself. Now after I gte the blue welcome screen I get an error message saying this:
Windows could not complete the installation. To install Windows on this computer, please restart the installation.
Then you click okay and it reboots. and it gives you no other options but to reboot. I tried rebooting with the HP recovery CDs I have (they're the closest thing I have to a Windows 7 disk right now) and had no luck. I even was able to get into task manager and tried to run the exact process that the installer was running from, but I get the same message.
any ideas? I can't get too many of the specs from it in its current state except that it's an HP dv6 notebook.
