Repair install failed
I just spent a couple of hours doing a repair install under the guidance of this sites instructions and it went all the way to the end and then I got the prompt that the installation failed and I should run the upgrade advisor to see if my computer was compatible with the version of windows 7 I was trying to install. Now let me clarify. I am running windows 7 HP x64 and the .iso that I used was one of the reccomended Dell Sp1 discs that your site gave me a link to. My copy of windows 7 came installed or should I say pre installed from Future Shop and when I looked it up on Belarc advisor it had OEM next to the key. Are these still able to complete repair installs because I can't figure out why it wouldn't complete the repair. I am running the upgrade advisor now just to see what it says. Don't know why because I have Win 7 installed so it should be good to go right?
