Installation problem with RTM Build after entering

Hello,

I have recently downloaded from MS the RTM version of Vista and got my key.

It all goes well, I then enter in the CD key I got. When I click next, to

go to the next stage it just hangs on the screen where I entered in my key.

I am using the 64 bit version. Also of the Beta versions installed just

fine.

I am not to sure what to do next. I have like just connected one of my SATA

disks and still the same problems.

I have attached in a word document the full specs of my computer.

Any suggestions

I have tried that and the same thing does happen.

It is really weird this as I had no problem with any of the Beta versions.

Why not just skip entering your key at this time and enter it when the OS is fully installed?

Hello,

This problem is really starting to get to me

take care

Maybe try stripping the machine down to absolute basics:

1 HDD

1 DVD

Remove the USB and cardbus devices

Disable the audio

Hello,

Thanks for that. I was thinking it was bios. I know that my computer is from AJP a company In London. But they are a badged Clevo computer. I am trying to find the lastest update for the bios but no luck.

I will keep hunting but any help would do.

I also had this problem all of the betas worked fine but RTM didnt. A simple bios update did it for me. I thought I had the latest bios, as was up on my computer driver page, but there was a newer one. good luck!

Thanks for that. I have downlaoded the ISO twice and same thing happens both times.

Right I will check with the MD5 Hash.

All the help is appriciated. :D :D :D

I got the same problem, turns out to be the ISO image i downloaded. Got corrupted. Make sure you got the MD5 hash for the iso file to compare it.

Hope it helps

It did not match.

So I did download the ISO again. And it worked this time.

thank you so much !!!

Check CRC value of downloaded ISO and compare it with CRC value posted on Connect website. When burining ISO, use the lower possible speed with verification option enabled to verifiy the DVD.

    • Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) 18.1.2.3 by Razvan Serea Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) is a utility for completely removing AMD/NVIDIA/INTEL graphics drivers and related packages from your system, attempting to eliminate all leftovers (including registry entries, folders and files, driver store). Though AMD/NVIDIA/INTEL drivers can usually be removed via the Windows Control Panel, this uninstaller tool was created for situations where standard uninstall fails, or when you need to fully remove NVIDIA or ATI graphics card drivers. After using this driver cleaner, your system will behave as though it’s the first time you’re installing a new driver—similar to a fresh Windows installation. As with all such tools, we recommend creating a restore point beforehand, allowing you to undo changes if issues arise. If you're having trouble installing an older or newer driver, try it—there are reports that it resolves such problems. Recommended usage: The tool can be used in Normal mode but for absolute stability when using DDU, Safemode is always the best. Make a backup or a system restore (but it should normally be pretty safe). It is best to exclude the DDU folder completely from any security software to avoid issues. You do NOT need to uninstall the driver prior using DDU. Requirements: .NET Framework 4.8 Compatible with Windows 7, 8, 8.1, 10, and 11 (32-bit or 64-bit) Note: Using on Insider Preview builds is at your own risk. Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) 18.1.2.3 changelog: All GPUs: Fixed hardware rescan issue when cleaning all GPUs without restarting or shutting down UI: Added Guru3D mention in the About section. General: Various fixes and enhancements.

    • That would be nice, if excel could refresh pivot tables without bugs. Frequently you refresh a pivot and all parameters get lost. Now this will happen automatically. Bravo MS!
    • If one could ever put all the crap of the world in one box, that would be Microsoft.
