I inserted the same disc OEM Windows 7 I used originally when I built this computer. I get a black screen with the exception of a single line that says... "" something, something, boot from the cd/dvd: _ "." I click on "enter"... and nothing! It took me a while to come to the conclusion that perhaps my OEM copy was a schedule a. From what I hear OEM motherboards to join. The only thing I changed was the hard drive, not the mobo.  The instructions its so easy. "Turn on / installation disk / click on enter / select the language, and the world is beautiful." Not on my side! Suggestions anyone?

Coppies of Windows OEM are related to the motherboard, that they are activated on, not the hard drive.  You must have a problem with the disc you.  Purchase of a new copy of Windows 7 OEM will not work because you must use the OEM preinstallation kit and then sell the computer according to the terms of the license.

    I am not able to connect any hardware. It started all of a sudden. I can't connect my mouse so it before I'm not able to use my computer.  He did the same thing when I put in a USB key, there was the same error message.

    If something is damaged? How can I resolve this - pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

    Looks like you may have a virus or other malware. Get your updated antivirus program and start safe mode.  Note that some viruses can hide from your normal antivirus program, so you really need to scan mode without failure.  To enter in Safe Mode when you turn on first, press F8 on every seconds until you get the menu, and then select Safe Mode.  Then run a complete system scan.

    If that suits him fine. If this is not the case, use system restore to go back to an earlier date at the beginning of the problem.  To run system restore, click Start-> programs-> Accessories-> System Tools-> system restore.  Click on the box that says show more restore points.
    You can check the corrupted system files.  Open an administrator command prompt and run SFC if the above does not help. Click START, and then type sfc in the search box, right-click to SFC. EXE, then click on run as administrator. Then from the command prompt, type sfc/scannow.
    Finally if all else fails, you can look at the rather cryptic system event log.  To make, click Start-> Control Panel-> administration-> event viewer tools.  Once in Event Viewer system log-click and scroll entries looking for these "error" with indicator see if you can find guidance on where the problem may be.
