Windows quits at clean install! (BLANK SCREEN)

I started a clean install this morning and I haven't been able to get done
yet.

I backed up my files, rebooted, tapped the F12 key, and i saw a message
saying that "setup is inspecting *****.

Then I get a screen that says' "press any key to continue" but when I
pressed one, my system just stayed stuck , showing just a black screen. I
can't do a clean install and update my system because of that.

Can anyone please instruct me on what the issue is here?

What is the purpose of hitting the F12 key? You need to provide more info,
make/model of computer, some history - why are you trying to clean install?
