Why does not the Windows 7 installation start?

I have a laptop and I have a self-made bootable Windows 7 USB stick. But whenever I let the stick boot, it sticks to the "Starting Windows" screen. The Windows 7 icon is also not visible.

Fr

Then the stick is not bootable.

Just make a new one.

Here is the best tool.

I already tried it with the tool, then it was not recognized. I tried Rufus and I came to the result described above.

Fr

Is Usb turned on at all?

Just try it with a DVD, I had ever. USB did not go but DVD.

ef

The stick created via Rufus is recognized as a boot medium. That is not the problem. I can't try DVD because my laptop does not have a CD / DVD drive. That's why I rely on USB, unfortunately.

Fr

32/64 bit right?

ef

I try to install the 64-bit version. The 32-bit version is not recognized as a bootable medium.

Fr

Then make a bootable 32 version.

ef

It does not work. 32-bit version can't be made bootable for pure UEFI systems with Rufus. My laptop only recognizes 64-bit versions. No idea why.

Fr

I can't think of more.

Try that if you have the key

I do not have a key yet. I'll buy it only when it's installed. Otherwise, the 5-10 euro would be set in the sand.
