I got few questions for you
1) Is your computer RAM upto 1gb?
2) Is your computer HDD size more than 40gb?
3) If the disk successfully formated ur Hdd, did it stop while copying windows to your hdd?
4) Are you sure your CD rom is still active, if its still working very well and able to read disc, change the windows 7 installation disc, there is probabililty that some files re missing while its being copied from ur buyer, so ds will not allow d installation to load complete.

I have experienced this also. During installation it suddenly says so so files missing,just eject the CD,clean the DVD rom lens,insert the CD again,it will continue from where it stopped.
I have experienced it formatting and reinstalling win xp,but never with win 7. If it persist buy another Windows CD.
