okonja: Eyyah, sorry..being a computer science student does not guaranty what you thought before handling him the system them

Well, to save you much time of google search,

enter the BIOS of your pc and change the boot mode from UEFI/Secure Boot TO Legacy boot mode, that's all

Insert your window 7 CD and start the installation afresh

OR

If you are installing from USB disk, follow this step; >> you have to press ESC shortly after turning it on, this brings up a menu.
Press F9 to get to a boot menu and select the USB drive.

When you reach the stage to select the partition you wish to install on, PRESS shift+F10 to bring up the command prompt,
Type "DISKPART" (without quotes) press enter, then Type "clean all" to wipe the HDD entirely when it's completed which used to take a little while, restart your pc and start the installation process again.

I hope you figure this out yourself OR you give it to that your computer science friend and show him this process to follow

Thanks alot, Am gonna do dis by nite, but, I cnt c how to change the Legacy and Uef.. Stuff.

onegig: You sure it's loading from the system at startup? PRESS esc or f10 or f9 to enter bios. Go under boot options and select the cd rom as first thing to boot . Try this. If it doesn't work go back to the bios setup, diagnostic, hard disk test. Carry out the test to ascertain the state of the hard disk. I doubt the hard disk is spoilt yet.

I wil try dis tomoro morning, The hard disk is working in another system. The system originally came with windows 8.1, I wil also search for windows 8.1 instalation disc. Thanks bro, Wil get back to U tomoro
