    I just wanted to share this informatuion with anybody who may still be using a HP x4000 workstationa and upgrade it to windows 7.

    In the BIOS you MUST have HYPERTHREADING turned ON for the processors. Otherwise the installtion will stall after loading disk.sys.

    I just resolved this issue tonight after trying everything. I first I thought the problem was with the onboard LSI drivers. But it is not the case.
