Default Serious Help Needed! Win 7!

Ok. I am running 32 bit vista home edition fine. I have a CD for 7 Ultimate and have the valid key from MSDN. But I am having installation problems. Assistance is needed! I have tried everything! When I run the installer, I click "Upgrade" and it says "Checking Compatibility" and then after a few minutes it just exits out and goes back to the main menu of the disc. It gives me no errors, sounds, anything. Please assist! I will +rep and even pay (if this is allowed) if some1 is able to help me install this! Thanks in advance!

Maybe your disk is scratched/damaged in some way.

I also have an ISO of the disc and I have tried using a flash drive and a virtual drive to upgrade. (I also have my friends disc which he used fine and is running wind 7 flawlessly on his system,)

Well as long as you are booted into Vista while starting the upgrade you should be fine although I did have to restart once or twice to get it working myself.

Yeah, there are lots of possible issues with upgrading from vista to 7, including (but not limited to) not being able to start Windows at all after it is installed.
You safest option is install 7 from scratch, but of course, it's easier said than done.
