Could be problematic installation media. Might try a different source.

Why isn't it installed? Hyper-V Windows 7 install.

I want to install Windows 7 on a virtual machine. However, the installation has not been completed and only this screen is showing. Why is this problem happening? To end this situation, you have to delete the virtual machine.

What is the configuraiton of the VM?
Are you using an ISO or a phsycial DVD? You can try to re-download the ISO from official sites.
Try to turn off Dynamic memory allocation during the install portion.
Windows 7 depends on PIC (Programmable Interrupt Controller) which is not present on Gen 2 VM's.Thanks for your time!
Best Regards,
Mico Mi-----------------------------
