I tried installing Windows 7, an upgrade from Vista. It wouldn't start automatically, and when I tried clicking the setup file it said it didn't have a program to run it and froze. After about 10 minutes of a frozen screen I restarted the computer, the installation was going normally except when it gets to the Windows 7 logo, it freezes.

I let it sit all night last night, and all day til now. It keeps restarting the installation process and freezes on that screen. After a while of the frozen logo screen, it goes black for about 30 min then the cycle starts over again. What can I do to get it to install all the way?

Sounds like a video compatibility issue. You could try updating your video drivers or if your motherboard has on-board video, switch to that for the install, then install Win 7 video drivers once your install is complete. You should also check to see if your video card is compatible with Win 7 on the Microsoft Win 7 site. Good Luck!
