Blue screen on boot Guido Elia HELPPC - HELPPC SERVICE ________________________________ Da: Jonathan [mailto:ncm...@gmail.com] Inviato: venerdì 10 febbraio 2012 12.30 A: NT System Admin Issues Oggetto: Re: R: Reinstallation of Windows 7
Please be specific about what you mean by "not booting/bootable". What exactly does your system do when you press the power button to turn it on? If your system is not bootable (will not POST) and you don't.get to the point where you have an "Operating System not found" or similar error/blue screen, then you most likely have a hardware error that no DVD will fix. I have installed Win7 from the dvd over top of an existing install more than once with success. I have also rolled back to an earlier restore point by booting from the dvd more than once.

You asked for reinstall. None of the results found with the above link suggest that a (re)install cannot be done from DVD. For example, the first match is for Microsoft's procedure that explains exactly what you originally asked for.
