Windows failing to start?
You have a Windows 10 installation from a USB drive that functions properly until you attempt to enter your Windows 7 serial key online. This usually means the USB drive is corrupted or incompatible with Windows 10. You should back up your data and consider using a different installation media, such as a DVD or an ISO file. Regarding upgrading the old Windows 7 system, it’s not necessary unless you want to keep using it for legacy applications.
First, upgrade from Windows 7 to Windows 10. Only then can you activate Windows 10 using a fresh installation. Get the ISO from the provided link https://www.microsoft.com/en-in/software...d/windows7 and enter your key there. Install Windows 7 on your new PC, then upgrade to Windows 10 by downloading the ISO from https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software.../windows10. Verify the correct Windows 10 edition matches your version—choose Home Premium/Basic for Windows 7 Home, or Pro/Ultimate for Windows 7 Professional/Ultimate. Use the appropriate ISO to complete the upgrade and activate automatically.
