Windows 7 freezes on complete Installation with my HP Pavilion a6500f

I did turn a copy of 64 bit Vista on my HP Pavillion a6500f until very recently. Need a clean install of Windows 7. He gets during the major part of installation very quickly, but when it gets to the install finished step, it freezes. What should I do?

Tips for solving common problems when Windows 7 won't install troubleshooting

1. start Windows Upgrade Advisor to see if there are known issues that might affect the installation and correct them.
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/downloads/Upgrade-Advisor

2 disable any security software: anti-virus, firewall etc. Don't forget to activate the Afterwords.
3 make sure that your computer has the BIOS and latest drivers. Update of the BIOS can be risky, don't do that if nothing else works.
4. disconnect all external devices except the keyboard and mouse before installing.
5. If using a video card and the computer has integrated video use and remove the video card.
6 unplug the computer from the internet, if you have wireless disable.
7. RAM (memory) - reduce the amount of RAM. 1 GB if 32-bit installation, 2 GB for 64-bit, then replace RAM if the upgrade was successful. If you added new RAM make sure it is also compatible.
8. If you have several hard drives remove all except the one that you install Windows 7, and then replace it after Windows 7 is installed.
9. If you have downloaded Windows 7 and it burned a DVD test burn again at the slowest speed possible. It is also possible the download may have errors, you can try to download it again.
10. If you click 'Upgrade' to start the installation make sure that you take a supported upgrade path. You can't make a square by update: type A) XP to Windows 7, B) fuse change - 32 to 64-bit, C) change languages, D) decommissioning editions ex: Vista of the month last 7 Pro, or E) Vista Home Pro 7.

11. check your RAM (memory) to find errors. Can take a long time, don't make that if nothing else has worked.
(A) Insert the Windows 7 DVD and restart the computer.
(B) start from the Windows 7 DVD.
(C) select your language, and then click Next.
(D) click on "repair your computer" then select the operating system to fix it.
(E) click on the link of the Memory Diagnostics in the system recovery menu.
(F) the computer will restart and your memory is checked for errors.

12 turn off startup programs:
(A) click Start, type MSCONFIG in the search box and press ENTER.
OK the authorization of user account control and password if necessary
If you are using XP: click Start, run, and type: MSCONFIG and click OK.
(B) on the general tab, click Selective startup.
(C) just below the selective startup, clear the checkbox "Load Startup items".
(D) click the Services tab, check "Hide all Microsoft Services", and then click Disable all.
(E) click OK, and then restart the computer.
(F) try the upgrade again.

(NOTE: If the upgrade fails and you continue to use your rear security software, then also go back into MSCONFIG and under the general Tower XP/Vista tab, click "Normal startup", and then click OK to exit.)

    Vista reinstall unsuccessful

    Have a laptop Dell Inspiron 1720 under VISTA that would not initialize.  Would not meet a boot of VISTA reinstall the CD that came with the device.  Replaced the hard drive with the hard drive to another laptop running Win 7 Dell.  The 1720 started fine in Win7 since the new HARD drive, and all seems well.  So I guess that all the material (and this new HARD drive) are OK.

    Then, I started again the Vista reinstall the CD to get the 1720 and his new HARD drive to an installation of VISTA is legitimate.  At the format of the process to reinstall the HARD disk partition, and install started.  Has been through the steps of copying, in expansion, installation of the features, installation of updates and finally successful at "completing Installation". "we sat for hours.  The HARD drive light is inactive now.  Not easy to life.  Later (at night), the screen goes black with the cursor of the mouse visible and alive.  But not Vista.  Cut off power supply and tried again.  Same result.  The VISTA reinstall stands in the last step.

    BTW, I ran a diagnosis of memory, and it was OK.

    Any suggestions for next steps?  Reinstall CD could be bad?

    Hi Mike,.

    Disconnect all external devices other than the keyboard and mouse and check if you canproceed with the installation.

    If you have more than 1 GB of RAM I suggest to keep only 1 GB of RAM, remove the extra RAM and check if you can proceed with the installation.

  • Windows Vista will not complete installation on SATA hard drive

    I tried to install Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit on a new desktop computer Acer X 1200 (less than 1 year).  Vista recognizes the drive, format and copy all the files on the disk installation.  Then restarts, is preparing to launch for the first time and get to the part where it says installation finished and hangs there.  The green progress bar does not move and it hangs indefinitely.  The hard drive is SATA and I put a new disc in hard, but exactly the same thing happened.  The motherboard has no IDE port on it and there is no option in the BIOS for the IDE emulation.  At this point I think the motherboard is bad, but I am working also on a laptop HP 1 year with SATA hard drive that does exactly the same thing.  The two systems are pre-installed with Vista Home Premium.  The two systems see the hard drive, but will not complete installation.  I even tried to run the WD Tools Data Lifeguard before installation with no luck at all.  There is no error message or error code, just of hangs and end no installation.  You have any suggestions for this?  Thank you.

    What was my problem I bought the equipment... like motherboard, memory, cpu, and video

    Vista would not be install.would blow on the end of the installation so I tried to put it natively and it worked!

  • Windows 7 freezes / hangs when booting (with video)

    When I start my computer it freezes / crashes during startup. I've attached a video link to give you an idea.

    http://www.YouTube.com/watch?v=LHBVUkDNZEc

    Brian good (I think that its your good reputation), first of all thank you for taking the time to post a nice video to show us the problem clearly.

    Now, what is the real cause of this problem?

    Here are the possibilities:

    1. your windows startup file is corrupted, if you experience this problem.

    2. you made a hardware recent change / installation of the driver.

    3. your hardware component is defective (RAM or HARD drive).

    4 overheating

    Now come to the solution (s):

    I write the wise number of solutions as opportunities:

    1. use a boot disk to start or to repair the startup using Windows 7 Startup Repair (either install original Windows 7 dvd or if your provider has provided a dvd repair). You can find how do help in detail section. pop the dvd, configure the bios to boot from it, select advanced and then goto repair.

    2. remove all hardware you installed recently, and then try to start in safe mode (by pressing F8 during startup, you will get options)

    3. If you have multiple RAM remove one bye one and try, it's a test error method. If the HARD drive is faulty, you must goto hardware vendor.

    4. check the inside of the Cabinet: clean carefully, check if any cable is blocking any fan.

    Note: The test of solution 1, then down average. Do not open the closet when its on or if you do not have the knowledge necessary to perform this task.

  • Windows 10 won't complete installation

    So, I finally started to install Windows 10 through Windows Update, but the first time I did, download he got 78% full. But rather than continue the download, it stopped there and that message says, "10 Windows could not be installed. He also gave me the 80072F78 error code. I tried several solutions and tried to re - download as many times, but each test gave me the same result as before. I just heard on the. ISO file to install it, but I don't know if it will keep all my files if I did like that. I really want to upgrade to Windows 10, and I hope you can help me with this problem.

    Using the ISO method keeps your personal files, applications, and the default settings.

During the installation of Windows 10, click on the advanced custom Option and use the command load driver to load the driver for the SCSI drive. If this does not work and the installer still fails, consider switching to an IDE based hard drive.
    • Perform a clean boot, restart, 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, then try to install.
    • If you are updated through Windows Update, when download reaches 100% disconnect from the LAN (Ethernet) Internet or Wi - Fi, then proceed with the installation.
    • If this does not work, try using the. ISO file to upgrade if possible.

  • Cannot complete installation of Windows 7 OEM on Precision T3400

    Can someone help me?

    I try to do a clean install on a Dell Precision T3400 with Windows 7 64 Bit OEM, but cannot complete the sequence.

    It goes through the sequence of the whole installation, restart a couple of times. He gets in the beginning of the sequence as "complete installation" - contribute to what, according to me, it's the final reboot - and then crashes. I think that what should come next is the bit where to enter information first name of computer use - time, date, place - time etc. I never get that much, however.

    I have not updated the BIOS. Previously Windows Vista - but the disk has been deleted - not sure if I can update the BIOS in this State.

    Another thing - I swapped the graphics card. The monitor of works well during the initial installation sequence.

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks a lot for reading.

    The suggestion above about SATA drives didn't really solve my problem, but it got me thinking in the right direction.

    Here's what I've learned about this through the answer and the answers on other forums above. It turns out be a common problem:

    It is usually caused by the lack of drivers for devices that are connected to the computer. Devices can include: any type of USB device (may be same mouse or keyboard), any type of hard disk, graphics cards and other types of cards such as PCI or PCIe Firewire. If you have a SCSI card then remove it permanently.

    I had a Dell keyboard with built in USB ports and a Media Player control. I swapped it for a simple vanilla ordinary keyboard.

    I also already swapped the graphics card that came installed on the T3400 for an older NVidia Quadro card as a fix for compatibility with my older monitors SVGA adapter.  When I searched on the NVIDIA site, I discovered that there is no Windows 7 driver for my graphics card, so I bought a DVI - I adapter that I needed the original card and replace.

    My problem turned out to be the graphics card.

    On other forums I have seen people solve the problem by removing the USB devices all THE. If you have a keyboard and a USB mouse, this may seem to be a problem. However, once you have initialized the windows 7 install process you can remove the keyboard and the mouse. Whenever the computer reboots it page and warn that any input device is fixed, but after a short pause, he must continue with the installation procedure. In my case, the fancy USB keyboard was certainly a problem too. Disconnected after initialization of the installation allowed the installation of two additional steps.

    I curse me Microsoft about this problem, but to be honest, I was not able to run a compatibility test of windows 7 on my computer. I bought it on ebay without an operating system. If I could perhaps it would have marked the graphics card problem and composite USB keyboard device.

    Don't know if it will work, but if you can't figure out what your driver problem, you can be able to run a hardware compatibility test and periperhals by a temporary installation of Ubuntu and connect it to the Net. I had no problem to boot Ubuntu from a USB key and the connection to the network.  It works perfectly first time without any of the usual shenanigans of Microsoft. In my opinion, Ubuntu is an operating system much higher with a much nicer user experience. My only reason to stick with Microsoft's older software. It's highly unlikely that I will ever consider buying a new system from Microsoft again. They lose the pedals after XP.

    Good luck

  • Installation of Windows 7 has failed due to the graphics card, can not go beyond "Complete Installation".

    Hello, I'm trying to reinstall Windows 7 Professional 64 - bit after an accident which is more allow me to start on the login screen of my previous installation of Windows 7 Professional 64 - bit.  When I try to reinstall the installation hangs and will not finish (even at night) on the stage of "Complete Installation"... ».  During my first install of Windows 7 on this computer I had the same problem and finally worked my way around it by removing the 2 GB of RAM (2 GB installed leaving) and the replacement of my gpu NVIDIA 8800GT with a gpu NVIDIA 8600.  I don't have the right to replace the gpu, and I believe that this issue could possibly be resolved by installing a suitable driver for the 8800GT before starting the installation.  Since I can't start is no longer in Windows 7 in a form in any way, the only option I know is to use the option to load drivers in the system found on the DVD itself System Recovery Options.  When I find the correct driver and install it, it returns the error "failed to install".  I am now at a loss to know what to do because it was the only solution I could think, am I missing something?  If this is not the case, how can I get Windows 7 installed again?  Thanks for any help.

  • Stopped Windows 7 install to complete the installation window

    Recently I bought the full version of Windows 7 Home Premium to upgrade my photographic XP computer.  Ran "Advisory" to determine that I could use the 64-bit version.

    Material:

    ASUS motherboard with processor dual core Athlon II X and edge NVidia video drivers
    8 GB RAM
    2 Seagate Barracuda 1 TB drives.  C:\ drive partitioned with the first (106 GB) partition for OS
    CD-Rom and DVD players
    Monitor SVGA/DVI NEC

    All is well until what he has obtained to "complete installation" and then everything just stopped.  No other activity and therefore, no OS.  Repeated several times, same result.

    Went to this forum, found several similar positions and followed all the advice: i.e., disabling USB in BIOS setup controller, disconnect all devices and cards (I only had a Netgear wireless card).  Enabling ACHI setting. No joy.  Same result.

    Finally decided to take an extreme measure and reformat the hard disk.  Full format.

    Attempt to install "clean".  Same results, repeated many times.  After having reached the screen where it is copied files and receive the message that it is now "finish installation", everything stops.

    ARRRGHHH! (Or words to that effect.)

    Now what?  Seen a post to the effect that Windows 7 can't settle on a 1 to or larger.  Any truth to that?  If it is true, as are both of my drives 1 TB, how all about without having to tear off one and put in a smaller?

    Anyone has any ideas that I have not tried?

    Download the drivers from ASUS. Unzip (expand the driver file, must create a folder that contains the setup.exe file and all the other necessary files).

    Burn it to a CD/DVD and insert after pressing F6.
