My bios is set to boot from uefi, I insert the disk win7 home, I get windows is loading files, but when the setup wants to switch to install interface (graphical) it freezes on the moving windows logo (it doesn't even appear)
 
Ok, good. That's good. All too often folks are using a recovery partition and it makes it much more difficult to resolve issues when the partition is on the questionable drive.

Ok, so go into the BIOS and make sure it's set to AHCI and not IDE or Legacy. Save settings and reboot to disk. Follow these instructions:
