Sir,
i checked your link of Clean install with a full version of Vista. when windows reach to restart which display in no 13 in your link. after restarting it again starting to installing the windows if i have not removed the pendrive at restarting time. if i removed the pendrive on restarting time then it go to new step of:
Please wait a moment while windows prepares to start the first time.

i have also a question: Is it necessary to clean the disk using clean all command on command prompt if i have already deleted all the drive and then creates new all?

You create you partitions when you install. Sounds like it's going OK at the moment.
You don't reactivate it yet though.
It will go on line to do the updates,When it is running correctly activate it then.

That dark screen is the computer looking to see if you have an extra monitor and is nothing to worry about. If it worries you, you can turn it off.
