Windows 7 wont install!!!!!

I have a toshiba netbook NB205 and im trying to install windows 7 home on it. Except it just keeps restarting at completing installation and keeps doing it over and over again. It never installs the actual OS. Im not sure whats going on.

 

From what I see on the Net, the Toshiba NB550D Netbook comes with Windows 7 Starter already installed.

Maybe it has been deliberately hobbled by Toshiba/MS, so as not to be able to update to Windows Home, or greater :cry

I'd also like to know the answer to your problem, as I am considering going the same route.

When it restarts after the install completes, go into BIOS and set the hard drive to boot first if it is not already.

 

How are you trying to install Windows 7 home?
I know it's a long shot but do what I did to a friend's net book. Back-up(obviously) then completely wipe and start from scratch with Win 7 home. Well, I didn't completely wipe it but got it to the point of where I could install Home with no problems.
It was an Acer net-book.

 

Hmm well I think I got it to work now. It seems to be installing and I got past the completing instillation part. Ill let you know if I have any more problems.

 

Glad it's working right now. Hopefully you don't run into anymore problems.
