William, If you download windows images from torrents, they are usually modified in some way. They are not the original windows image, either because they have more drivers/features added to them, or they are a recovery disk for a certain type of computer. This messes with fusions ability to automatically install windows 7. I have tried the same thing. Sometimes it would appear to install for a while and then just sit there silently without doing anything. Yet, when I got an actual copy of windows 7, the auto install went along just fine. This was true, even when I used disk utility to make an ISO image of the cd, and install it from my hard drive. So in short, it is not fusion that is broken, it's the copy of windows 7 you downloaded.
