Turn off your CAPSLOCK ! Its hard to read and its considered to be
the equivilent of yelling - not a good thing to do when you are asking
strangers for help.

As for your problem, many BIOSes have an antivrus protection for the
boot sector. I'm not certain if this is the problem, but it might be.

This antivirus in the BIOS must be turned off, so Windows can write
info to the boot sector during installation.

Look in the BIOS for something like boot sector protection or
antivirus and turn it off while installing Windows.
