Ok, heres my problem:
1) I started Windows 7 setup and started to install it on my new 1TB hard drive.
2) I let the setup go for a while and when it got to expanding the files, it got stuck at 58%.
3) The setup stayed there for at least an hour.
4) I restarted the computer from there and now my hard drive is not even detected anymore.
The hard drive is recognized in the bios but not in windows, and when I try to start up the setup disk, it just freezes on "Setup Starting..." then it eventually quits. Is there something wrong here? I need to install Windows 7 on this 1 TB hard drive so I can clear the 500 GB hard drive, which is the one I am using right now to post this thread.
