Error during install - "windows could not configure one or more..."

Hi All,

I'm hoping someone can help me diagnose what is causing this error during install - "windows could not configure one or more system components". I go through the setup process and everything seems to be going normally, then the system reboots and comes back to the last stage of the setup screen as normal then I get the error telling me to try reinstalling again.

I used the program 'Win Toolkit' to integrate the latest updates into my install image which I know is what caused the error, but I'd like to know specifically which update/s are causing the error so that I can exclude them when rebuilding my image.

I have attached some install logs from the \Windows\Panther directory, hopefully some of the knowledgeable people here can help me troubleshoot the problem?!

Thanks in advance!

Hi blueman83, welcome to Windows Seven Forums.

Could you be clearer on how you are doing the install. Are you using the usual Windows 7 installation DVD, or are you installing a backed up image. If you are reinstalling from a backed up image what program are you using.

Using 3rd party software to assist installation will very likely cause problems.

Did you yet Troubleshoot Windows 7 Installation Failures - Windows 7 Help Forums?

If so then next I'd enter Device Manager - Access During Windows 7 Installation to disable any erroring devices.

I don't know about the tool you used but what's worked best for years is here to Update 7 installation media - Windows 7 Help Forums. However all the time this saves is about an hour so I'd consider just using the Win7 with SP1 ISO correctly verified and burned as discussed in Step 1 of Clean Reinstall Windows 7 which are the steps that assure a perfect install which will stay that way exactly as long as you stick with the tools and methods suggested.
