Hello, the installation is failing because of an error. It seems your system isn't compatible with Windows 7, especially since it's quite old.

Usually this indicates a faulty installation disk or ISO file. Check if the checksum matches or re-download it and create a new USB/DVD.

Are you connecting via a USB drive? Consider burning a DVD. I previously used this method on older motherboards that were sensitive to USB installation media.

I just started using a different ISO now. I also tried the previous one.

Checked various ISO files, but they all produce the same issue.
