By accident I installed windows 7 HP 32 bit, so I decided to reinstall (just to note, I'm doing it from usb so no disk at all). I set bios to boot from usb and started to reinstall, it was going fine until it needed to restart the pc. It restarted and started the whole installation procedure from scratch. So I restarted and took out my usb to try fix it. And now there is 3 windows 7 boot options available and whatever happens when it loads it says that there was an error and needs to restart.

I managed to mess up installing win 7 massively and I want to know how to fix this without a disk

Is there anything in the hard drive but Windows? Basically can you wipe it and not care?

Because the easiest option would be to boot your Windows install from the USB and when given the choice of where to install - delete every partition until you have one large "Unallocated Space"

From there just proceed to install Windows to the unallocated space.

There is nothing on there, but booting from the usb doesnt give me the option to install windows anymore for some reason
