    I suspect your hard drive...

    Are you trying to reinstall from DVDs or recovery partition?

    Try setting the BIOS to default, this shouldn't make any diff but it's worth a try. Also make sure there are no devices connected to it during startup.

    Rather take it to a tech to have a look at it.

    Thx
