I was recently given a computer from a friend I'm not 100% sure of all the specs I know it's a asus pq50 turbo mobo, 500gb hdd, I can look later to see what else if needed. Any way the issue I'm having is I wiped the hdd with Dban to remove everything. I then re partitioned and reformatted the drive. Aswell as rebuilt the mbr hoping I could load Windows 7 from a bootable iso on a disk. But everytime I try to boot from the cd I am either brought to "press any key to boot from disc" after pressing a key I either get a "can't find boot mgr" error or a "header check sum does not match computed check sum" something along those lines. I've gone through the bios and set boot priority properly. I have read many other threads and forums on this issue and have had no luck trying what is stated. The only thing
I havnt tried that supposedly could help is trying to boot with only 1 stick of ram. Any other advice would be appreciated. Also i used the partition wizard boot cd to partition the drive. As I have no os currently. It was running xp previously and was running fine before I wiped the
