I think he need to but Win 7 home.

Thr is another option install Win 7 Ultimate and disable Ultimate features(I mean just keep Home features).

For the feature diff go to windows site.

If you're not trying to upgrade, I suggest you format the partition and then try installing once again.
Also you could check the disc for scratches.

if its a upgrade then it wont work, if its clean install check for any disc errors.
