• "Windows could not update the configuration to start the computer" error during the upgrade of Vista in Windows XP

  I have a laptop Dell Inspiron 1505, that is running Windows XP Media Center Sp3. I'm doing a place in upgrading to Vista since the disks to upgrade Dell... Everything's fine until the 'Expansion of the files' [27%], then the installation fails with this message: "Windows could not update the configuration to start the computer. Installation cannot continue. Any changes made to your computer during the upgrade". I did a google search for a fix that involves changing a value in the registry in the HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\ {4D36E976-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318} for example change the value to PartMgr Upperfilters. Unfortunately, this value was the default for my registry key changes could be made. Some other fixes involved the renaming of Upperfilter.bak, for Upperfilters unfortunately this .bak value does not exist in my registry.

  I tried to boot from the disk of Vista and changing the msconfig for a selective startup but without result.

  In addition, the stall even appears at a similar point when you try to upgrade to Windows 7. Is it because of the presence of hidden Media Direct and Dell restore partitions? Compatibility Assistant programs for the two operating systems found nothing significant. Anti virus has been disabled during the installation procedure. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

  Hello

  Not quite, but pretty close. Media Direct could not lock the boot sector. It must be a BIOS lock or a mechanism of protection provided by your antivirus software.  Given that, I would check your program settings then for all that prevents changes to the boot sector. You may find more easy just uninstall it and reinstall it after the upgrade. Good luck, Rick Rogers, aka "Crazy" - Microsoft MVP http://mvp.support.microsoft.com Windows help - www.rickrogers.org

  HI -.
  Other people who have had this problem report that choose NOT to do the updates during installation allows you to install finish. They are then installing updates once the installation is complete. You see an option to install no updatesa as part of the installation? Barb winter

• Could not update to Windows 8.1 0xc1900101 - 0 x 20017

  I am on Windows 8 on an Acer TravelMate 5730 and decided to take the plunge to upgrade to 8.1 Windows. Reboot, I received the following message: "could not update to Windows 8.1 0xC1900101 - 0 x 20017. What is the 0xC1900101 - 0 x 20017 error?

  I lost many times that I tried to install Windows 8.1, always for the same message. I searched the forums and my laptop rebuilt despair, assured all the drivers are up-to-date by downloading the software update driver and all the updates of Windows 8 have been installed. Has anyone in the community of the ideas on the problem or issue?

  Concerning

  Malcolm

  Hi Malcolm,

  This error message is displayed when there is a driver problem. Since you've already done so that you have all the updated drivers, I would suggest trying the following steps and check:

  I first suggest you remove all the devices connected to the computer with the exception of essential devices such as the keyboard and the mouse, and then start the computer and check.

  Method 1:

  If you have installed a third party such as antivirus/firewall program security software, they can interfere with the download. I suggest to temporarily disable and check if you are able to download the update.

  Important note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

  Method 2:

  If the problem persists, I you suggest to start the computer in a clean boot state and then try to download and install. Start your computer in a clean boot state, you can reduce conflicts between software and help identify the root cause of the problem. You can read this article for more information:

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

  Note: after the resolution of the problem, reset the computer to start as usual. Refer to the step How to configure the computer to start as usual after a boot minimum troubleshooting under more information.

  Note: We sent you a private Message, asking for log files continue to troubleshoot the issue. Please respond to the private Message with the requested information.

• Windows 10 we could not update the system reserved partition

  I have windows 7 Home Edition premium, no idea why it says windows 10 we could not update the partition system reserved when I try and update?

  • Make sure you have enough disk space.
  • Although the recommended minimum requirements are 16 GB (32-bit), 20 GB (64-bit), if you upgrade from a previous version of Windows or a previous version, you will need to have at least 40-50 GB of free space to accommodate the installation files.
  • First run Disk Clean up.
  • Archive files rarely used to an external hard drive.
  • Consider data synchronization to OneDrive or similar online service and do a custom installation.
  • Turn off (preferably uninstall) your Antivirus utility before you perform the upgrade.
  • Disable the general USB peripherals (for example - smart card reader).
  • Do a clean boot, and then try again.
  • If you upgrade to the. ISO file, disconnect from the Internet during the installation, if you are connected in LAN (Ethernet) or wireless, disable both and try the installation again.
  • If you update via Windows Update, when download reaches 100%, disconnect the Internet LAN (Ethernet) or wireless, and proceed with the installation.
  • If this does not work, try using the. ISO file to upgrade if possible.
  • If you are connected to a domain, go to a local account
  • If you have an external equipment, attached to the machine, unplug them (e.g., USB sticks, external hard drive, printers, peripheral non-essential).

• I want to install windows 7 arc gamer edition. I m using the new copy to install from dvd, it goes well until the installation of the updates, but installation ends, it displays error windows could not update

  I have windows 7 ultimate works correctly. I want to install windows 7 arc gamer edition. I m using the new copy to install from dvd, he is well until the installation of the updates but the installation finished, it displays error windows could not update the configuration to start the computer.  not installing and it rolls supports everything. Please help me solve this problem

  original title: windows 7 gamer edition

  Download of software on these sites can be very risky, because the origin of the files are usually edited and its quite possible that they could have injected malicious code in it.

  Windows 7 Gamer edition is not a developed Microsoft or affiliated with the product, what appears to be a customized image of Windows 7 that authors customized to remove or add Windows components, which can also be very problematic.

  You use something that no one can help you consider he has probably been reverse engineered and probably injected by a malicious code like spyware (keyloggers, rootkits, worms, viruses). I suggest you stick to Windows 7 Ultimate, this is the most complete edition of Windows 7, anyone can have.

  The thread is old now, but it is for those who always have this problem.

  When I got the error, I cancelled and restarted the machine. I pressed the 'option' button when starting upwards and he grew the boot partitions. You should see a 'EFI Boot' partition. Choose that and you restart the installation process, but this time it works.

  Supposedly the boot EFI and WinInstall partition should do the same thing. Manually, select one or the other.
