Hi,
first to all i would apologize for my bad english.
So, i have a MBP mid 2009 with some upgrade:
intel core duo 2.66 ghz
8 gb ram
ssd crucial 256GB
HD 320 gb
Nvidia 9400&9600gt

I want install windows to use some CAD-3D program.
A few years ago i had installed Windows 7 Enterprise 64 bit through Bootcamp&Snow Leopard.
Now i have El Capitan with Bootcamp 6 and i have a lot of problem with the procedure.
The problem is that after creating the partition through Bootcamp, the MB restarts in a black screen and the installer of windows doesn't start.
I tried all the possibile solutions that i found

1st
I tried an usb installation without DVD-lector,changing the file .plist in bootcamp. The system recognize the bootable usb but the installation doesn't start

2nd
I installed rEFIt in a usb storage and i tried to boot the USB pen without success

3rd
I tried to create a virtual machines e save it as a bootcamp backup,restored then in the bootcamp partition through WinClone
I used Fusion and Virtualbox,but without success. The screen at the start remains black after choose bootcamp partition

4th
I reassembled the DVD-lector in MBP and i tried to install Windows through the standard solution. Here arrives the funny.
I have the ISO of windows 7,windows 8.1 and windows 10:all versions are 64 bit.
I manage to install windows 10 with success but my macbook doesn't support it at 100%:the system doesn't recognize Nvidia 9400&9600gt and some other drivers(i tried to install them manually without success)
So i remove Windows 10 and i tried Windows 7,100% supported by my MBP.
I tried different isos(Ultimate and enterprise) but all give me the same problem.
When the system restarts after creating the Bootcamp's partition,the screen becomes black and the installation doesn't start.
The situation doesn't change if i manually choose the boot disk(Windows or Efit Boot indifferently),pushing the option key.
After windows 10 install i can choose "Efi Boot":if i choose it, a light-blue screen tell me that the system must be restored but i don't do nothing.

Clarification: all the iso and dvd run correctly . I tried them into several virtual machines.
No external devices were connected through USB

I'm really depressed

EDIT: i probably wrong section. Sorry
 
I have an idea

Can i install windows 7 through Bootcamp on a new macbook pro(without dvd lector,so through a bootble usb) of a my friend and then clone the bootcamp partition with Winclone and transfer it to my MBP?

Could it work?
 
I controlled the compatibility and windows 7 64 bit is ok

I want undestand if this is a good solution or not and if it may go

I installed windows 7 in an other macbook pro and then i copied the partiton through winclone..
When i copy it in my macbook it isn't work..
 
If it were me, and I wanted to install Windows 7 bad enough, I would backup my OS X install using time machine, and then try this:

1. Wipe the system.
2. Install Mavericks or Yosemite (or whichever one still had a version of boot camp that supported Windows 7 ... I think Yosemite did.)
3. Use BCA to install Windows 7.
4. Update OS X to El Capitan.
