Recently I have found that if your BIOS has a list of multiple drives, and your drive you want windows 7 on isn't listed in the beginning, or in order, it cannot boot. Among other reasons, you can format, delete, repartition, diskpart, and nothing will work.
Simply go into bios, and change the boot order of the drives you have:
usb first if you have that option
cd-dvd rom second obviously
the hard drive you want next
sometimes the names are obscure, just think, 120 gig drive might have 120 in the weird string of characters in it's name.
restart after the boot settings, and install as usual. works 100%.
Windows 7 will not install bios boot order fix
