Firstly, is there enough space on your C drive? 32 bit needs 16Gb & 64bit needs 20Gb just for its self, so if you have more than a single partion give C more space.
If the room is there, you could try formating the hard drive first. You can achieve this by performing a Windows 7 custom install, this will allow you to go to drive options ( advanced).
For a guide to W7 installation that may assist:-

This is not a full list of things to try but a starter to establish a sound base to work from.
Hope this of some help.
