Problem installing Windows 7 via USB

Problem installing Windows 7 via USB
« on: December 16, 2009, 12:15:08 pm »
I've installed Windows 7 via a USB on numerous PC's.

Everytime I try on Gigabyte MA790GP-DS4H, it fails to boot up.

I've obviously set First boot device to USB-HDD, but it just hangs on boot up.

The screen recognises the flash drive but won't, install the files.

The files on the Flash drive are:-

BOOT
EFI
SOURCES
SUPPORT
UPGRADE
AUTORUN
BOOTMGR
SETUP


Any ideas please

Unfortuately, I'd incorrectly installed the flash drive.....it worked on two previous PC's....looks more like luck than judgement.......

After spending a bit of time on line I found the right way to go about it....

Feel a bit of a plonker at the minute...... :-\
