Hello Simon,.

Thanks for posting your question on the Microsoft community.

We need more information about the issue so that we can help you better.

Your computer is connected to a domain network?

Thank you for details on the issue.

Preparation system (Sysprep) tool prepares an installation of Windows for duplication, auditing, and customer delivery. Duplication, also called imaging, allows to capture a customized Windows image that you can reuse throughout the organization. Audit mode allows you to add additional device drivers or applications to a Windows installation. After you install additional drivers and applications, you can test the integrity of the Windows installation. Sysprep also allows to prepare an image to be delivered to a customer. When the customer boots Windows, Windows Welcome starts.

    Hello

    For any problem with the help of the recovery Partition that has been copied to the hard disk by the computer manufacturer, you must contact them.

    This recovery process is the manufacturer, not Microsoft.

    ________________________________________________

    You never told us why you wanted to do a restore. If you had serious errors and the recovery process does not work, you will have hardware problems. BUT we're only guessing at this stage due to lack of information to help you.

    See you soon.

  • Windows could not complete the installation - Message in Vista 32

    Windows could not complete the installation. To install windows on this computer, run the Setup again.

    I get this message when I switch on my compaq CQ40 with Vista 32. From this screen, I can go into Manager tasks and go online, see the program files on the C: drive, change passwords, etc. Anything except support Vista. I just downloaded and installed SP2 via the Task Manager. Always stops after the Welcome screen. Another thing I never noticed before: during the boot and just after opening orb, the Welcome to Windows message lights up with the small circle of progress, then I hear a sound of gong just before startup fails. Curious. Any help out there?

  • I'm having a problem reinstalling Windows XP. After formatting the disk and create partitions, it will not complete the installation.

    Problem reinstalling Windows XP

    I'm having a problem reinstalling Windows XP.  After formatting the disk and create partitions, it will not complete the installation.  He goes back and reinstall Windows again.  I go through the installation of 39 minutes, the computer restarts to complete and it loops back and start the installation again. Why it does this and what I can do to move beyond this?

    Go into the BIOS and make sure that you your hard drive is not set to off, and that is the first priority boot CD and your second HD.

    Don't push when it restarts anything just to let him do what he does and report back if anything I'm sorry I have no idea.

  • "Windows could not complete the installation", Y510P

    Hello

    Just got my new Y510P and realized it's impossible to start Windows.

    Initially it displays error "Windows cannot parse or process Unattend...» [... \unattend.xml] [oobeSystem] pass... »

    After reboot he start to display a different message - "Windows could not complete installation, restart the installation.

    The operating system is Windows 8.1.

    Looks like I'm not the only person having this problem. System recovery does not help, of course (as well as the graceful Lenovo tech support).

    I think that the problem caused by the incorrect unattend.xml file that fails to install any software because of this error and unnesessary blocking Windows to complete the installation.

    I see no other way rather than installing Windows from another source. I don't want to pay for another Windows license and instead return the Lenovo laptop, but perhaps there is another way?

    Problem solved.

    I contacted Lenovo support and they offered me to send recovery discs I received a few days later. I installed the cleaning system of records and have not experienced any problems since.

    I'm still not fully satisfied because I cannot reset the laptop to the factory settings without these discs, but I think I can live with that.
