Hard Drive stops...

So, I am trying relentlessly to install Windows 7 Ultimate onto my iMac, and it just isn't happening. I get to the point where it installs and expands all the windows files, and then it restarts. After it restarts, I'll hear the Hard Drive spinning for a few minutes, then it'll just stop. I've left it for hours, just to come back to the same black screen, and just a side note, it's the unlit black screen, not the "fake", lit black screen, if you know what I'm talking about. When I find it, I hit the space bar, or shake the mouse, and I can hear the Hard Drive, and the Windows 7 disc start to spin again. What is going on?! Thank you in advance.

How do you use MacFUSE and find the file?

In Paragon, why can I not see my windows partition to edit it?
