I installed a brand new Samsung 860 EVO ssd on my 2011 27" and after installing the OS the page it asks which country I am. United States is selected by default. When I click on the continue icon it doesn't proceed to the next option. At times a spinning beach ball shows up for a minute but then goes away. The keyboard is recognized but I can't select the continue icon with it.

When I reboot it the same screen reappears. Pressing down the letter D upon startup doesn't get me to the hardware test.

What might be a solution so I can fully install the new OS which is High Sierra.

Thank you for looking.

Update: It's gotten to the Data & Privacy screen.
