I just did a fresh pc build all new parts and is put together correct, and I put in my O/S boot disk and it goes through the loading files but when it gets to the "starting windows" and the next screen should be "license agreement" the screen just goes black. I tried the same disk in another pc and acted like i was booting from it and it went to the install perfectly. Not sure what the issue could be. If anyone has experienced this please let me know.

1) Try with 2gm of Ram.

2) If you have onboard video, remove video card.


Research I have done for you points to this being the best answer.
Your bios may have the option to automatically detect the video card and should be set to auto.
If the option is not there remove the card.
