you got spare hdd? try putting it in and see if the system boots. I suspect the bios is not detecting the hdd and refuse to boot for some reason.

Also, is your laptop using SATA HDD? You MIGHT need to update bios first before W7 installation. My Acer Ferrari 4005 is on IDE, so no issues with installation. I know there are some issues with SATA + laptop bios for certain brands.

is your laptop using Nvidia graphics? If it is, then I think I know the problem.
