windows 7 ult.64 new install ???

iskatefast · Sep 11, 2010

Trying to load my OS for the first time on my new build and it isn't working.
Have tried multiple options and keep getting "A required CD/DVD drive device driver is missing" on collection of information step....
I added a Kingston SNV425-S2BD/64 last night and went to install windows and got stopped cold.
I have tried isolating the drives and everything. No matter what what drive I try to use..same issue...

Are you trying to install from an official Win7 DVD, or from an ISO you burned to disk?

If you have not yet....

Try moving the ISO to a USB using the simple USB tool located here

Problems installing Windows are nearly always related to either the installation disk being bad, or bad memory, If you burned your disk from a .ISO then redownload the file and burn another disk, if it's a regular disk then inspect the data side for heavy scratches then hold the disk up to the light and look for holes in the foil side. Then run a memory test.

+1 and if possible I sugjest using a usb to install with.

Agreeing with the crowd here. I've had multiple "bad installs" due to faulty source media. I almost exclusively use USB keys/drives for my installs now because of this. :shrug:
