This is a weird one:
I pop in the Windows 7 DVD and it says Loading Files...
all normal. But then it gets to the part with the blue windows 7 background, but the installer window never shows up. It;s the ECS G31T-M7 motherboard. Might the G31 chipset not be supported?

I doubt it's the chipset, but probably something funny with the motherboard.

Maybe the BIOS.
Personally, though, I've nerver installed 7 on a Intel _3_ chipset, but I think I have done vistrash on an Intel DQ35JO motherboard (Q35 chipset) and it worked fine.
But you know what my solution would be

Windows XP?
No, I switched to Ubuntu to get away from XP.
Nah of the 6 computers I switched to LInux in my house, 4 are back on Windows 7. I decided that even though it has its annoyances Windows is still more polished and reliable than Linux.

Yes, XP or linux would have been my solution.
