The video adapter setting for updating the screen (the refresh rate) is incompatible with the monitor.

do you have a usb stick? and what is your OS x86 or 64

Not sure this work this late in the game. You can change this stuff later when win is finished
Usb stick or floppy create a .txt file on it and add this. You don't want the CODE boxes. If X86 just change the amd64 to x86
Now rename to AutoUnattend.xml. Restart

Credit to Veegertx posting or I wouldn't have seen this.

Here is how you should install Windows and how to disable the video card driver while doing so:

Device Manager - Access During Windows 7 Installation - Windows 7 Forums

Guarantees success every time in these situations. Enjoy.

I knew about shift + F10 as I use it a lot but didn't know about the device manager

I actually install with more control not having to answer all them ?
