Booting Issue

[Nepsyde]

Hi

Recently my sisters Compaq c710TU (C700 Presario) CD Rom drive stopped working. During this period, i wanted to install windows 7 RC on to her laptop .

Using this method described on this website Raymond.CC I used the manual method (the second method: automatic didn't work for me). After i managed to install Win 7 RC on to the USB hard drive, i tried to boot up the laptop and i got some sort of ntrl boot error.

After this happened, i set the boot order back to default (changed the booting sequence, so i could boot from USB). Once i tried to restart the computer, the laptop boots up the where windows XP boot screen is displaying then it shows a blue BSOD for 1 sec then it restarts. This continues for ever. I just had to turn off the laptop and call it quits. If i can't fix it, i will end of paying the repair bill

If someone could assist me in getting her laptop to boot again fully, it will be greatly appreciated.

Thank You

Onto USB? You should install from USB onto Harddrive.

If he wants to install from.

Otherwise he can install onto USB device, i.e. boot from it:
