    First please make sure you obtain the Windows 7 iso from the official site(Which is not available now). Then burn the iso at 4X speed using a burning software such as Nero.

    The issue can also occur if your DVD burner is too old. You may use a newer DVD burner to test the result.

    Hope it helps.

    I got the error twice, once on my 6956. I think its because of the DVD drive. The drive i had in it was a old DVD-ROM drive from Sony. I just took out the DVD-RW DL drive from my pc the one that installed perfectly and put it in the other PC, lets see if it works.
