Solved crash after installing on first boot

[baarod]

I'll let Orbital Shark work on this so we don't cross wires any more but will continue to monitor progress. I really think if you bypass the installer that you can get a working system.

 

[baarod]

i can the x drive is the windows 7 disk

Not really. More likely it's the WinPE ramdrive.

 

[bakerboy]

i agree that bypassing the final setup stage would prob give me a working system but how would i do that also if you want to add me on msn so we can talk that way im:[email protected]
if not im fine with doing thing this way

 

[Orbital Shark]

I would like to hear your views baarod as i'm thinking you might have something up your sleeve.

 

[baarod]

Every Windows 7 install has a working generic image embedded in it that can be extracted with a tool called imagex.exe. That post link above explains how to do it. If he can get to the drive he's trying to install Windows 7 and the Windows 7 ISO to from within Windows XP then it's as simple as mounting the ISO and expanding file out onto the Windows 7 target volume. Then just setup the boot files with bcdboot.exe and make that volume active or if it's a separate disk boot off it with the BIOS options.

You've bypassed the point of failure and should be able to continue...

You've bypassed the point of failure and should be able to continue...

what no i havent im not any better off then when we started

 

[baarod]

what no i havent im not any better off then when we started

So you've tried it already? That was almost impossibly to quick!

 

[bakerboy]

oooooooo you where talking about after that it should work lol i thought you were saying i have already fixed it after that ok im rebooting in xp where can i find this .iso

 

[baarod]

It's the Windows 7 ISO you downloaded and burned to DVD -- you know that file right?

 

[bakerboy]

ah yes i know that file well i no longer have that file is there a way to extract it from the dvd as i live in australia and are internet is crap i only get 15GB a month and most of that is gone

 

[baarod]

ah yes i know that file well i no longer have that file is there a way to extract it from the dvd as i live in australia and are internet is crap i only get 15GB a month and most of that is gone

Sure, just put the DVD you burned into the drive and navigate to the \sources directory. You'll find a great big file called install.wim that contains the whole Windows 7 image already installed...

 

[bakerboy]

so i should pop thows files on to my win 7 hdd??
also should i formate the drive or just move every thing in to another folder??

 

[baarod]

Win7 Upgrade crashed at last stage

Hi,

My upgrade from Vista over the network failed. I am seeing error that copy profile failed causing the setup to remain incomplete. The set up then forced a restart. Now I go to setup when the system starts. It tells me that there was an error and asks for restart. If I try to roll back, it crashes and restarts. If I try to login, I again get the same message. On dismissing the message, system restarts. I am now stuck. I am able to launch command prompt, start explorer etc. But the user profile service does not start and does not allow me to connect to network. Anyone knows how to come out of this?

I have yet to be able to install win7 via PXE boot (network install) it just hangs every time.

My workaround was to get the build on disc, or even better, USB drive.

 

[antalgebra]

Hey Baker, there's alot of content on this problem... Is there any way you can give me a run-down of the progress you've made? I might be able to help...

Recovered Win 7 Vista upgrade from Network install hang

Hi,

I was installing Win7 from network and it got into a loop where I was getting error message on restart stating something like "your installation was interupted due to unexpected error or restart. Please restart your machine to continue with setup". On dismissing the message the system will restart. Setup would begin and again stop at the same message. This is how I got it fixed - I pressed shift + F10 to get command prompt. I started explorer and also task manager. Both were working correctly. On doing some R&D I found that the admins had customized the install as it was "IT Supported" trial. During this the specialize phase failed and the set up was stuck in that state. I also understood that it was followed by OOBE (Out Of Box Experience) phase. I could not find how to complete the specialize phase. However I figured out that it was only the customization needed by the IT department to ensure that I have required s/w to join the domain safely. This was possible even after the install was complete.

I figured out by searching on net that the OOBE executable is under %system32%\oobe folder. I just launched the MSOOBE.exe and bingo... It completed the rest of the stuff in no time. I was stuck for a while as my laptop display wont show up but then I remote connected my laptop from my desktop machine and found that everything looked to be in order. I then restarted laptop using remote connection and upon that everything got fixed. My entire Vista upgrade was successful. Hope this helps fixing any similar issues going forward.
