win 7 will not boot have tryed to repair from install disc and boot disc neither worked. i loaded same win7 on a spair HD using another machine and it worked fine. i removed the HD from the crahsed machine and repalced it with the newly installed HD from the working machine. on restart of the crashed machine win 7 would not boot and acted the same as with the crahesd drive. when i swaped the newly installed HD back to the working machine it now would not boot and acted like it had in the cahed machine except that win7 was able to repair the HD and boot.

at one point i was able to boot the crashed machine in safe mode but not able to get their any more.

You seem to be installing on one system, then moving the drive with the OS to another system.

As you have seen, that often does not work.
Put the drive in the target system and install. Barring any other hardware issues, it should work.
