Went through the complete installation process. Chose my settings for time zone, etc. Then computer reboots and takes a long time then goes to safe mode with options to repair. I have tried the repair options, but it states that it cant repair the problem. Is there something that I am doing wrong?
Here are my standard starting questions:
Welcome to Seven Forums.
What build # & Version of the Win_7 ?
Where did you get the iso file from ?
How did you burn the DVD ? At a slow x4 speed ?
Any Over Clocking of ram or cpu ?
Best to have 2gb ram or less for initial install !
Suggestion, remove everything not essential to loading Win_7, from the system.
No printers, gamepads, second monitors, scanners, external devices, flash drives etc...
Connection between Video card & Monitor works best for install with a standard VGA cable !
Do you have a single OS on your computer or are you multi-booting ?
Are you using USB or eSATA to connect to any external HD's ?
How many HD's are connected to you system ? IDE or SATA ?
How many DVD drives are connected to your systen ? IDE or SATA Drives ?
When you see HD's in Disk Management is there a yellow triangle and explanation point ?
Do you have a single OS on your computer already or are you planing on multi-booting?
Or is this a New Clean HD ? Have you pre-formatted the HD ?
Windows 7 x86 Ultimate
Burned at 9x speed.
No overclocking.
1 GB RAM.
Just unplugged everything and trying again.
Single OS, no external hds or dvd drives.
Im do a custom install over Vista.
I'm going to try and burn again at 4x, but just wanted to ask how the burn speed affects this?
Less chance of errors & corrupted files necessary for install.
I use Free program ImgBurn at 4x & check the box verify !
