Firstly, what do you mean when your GPU was not showing? Because if you got into the BIOS, the GPU should be working correctly. Also, did you leave it when it got to this screen?

P.S I know that's Windows 7, but they all are the same since Vista.

i dont really know , but i could not see  the gpu in the bios. and yes i left right after the "copying windows files"

The GPU is not detected in the BIOS actually. Unless it's integrated graphics like Intel HD graphics, it will not be mentioned in the BIOS.

 

Unplug all your unnecessary USB devices, I've spent hours trying to figure out why my Windows install failed in the past and what was causing the issue was just having a webcam or something plugged in. (It's weird but seems to be a common issue.) Also, I would run a memory diagnostic test to see if it's a memory related issue. When you boot into the installation media, on the first screen where it says "Install Now", on the bottom left corner of the window it should have the option "Repair your computer", click that and select Windows Memory Diagnostic.
