    Can anyone help me get around this hang?


    I just discovered an old pc I had laying around and decided to delete the old OS ubuntu 10.04 and install windows 10 using a boot drive. I have wiped my hard drive and inserted a boot drive. The installation launched successfully but got stuck preparing files at 8%. I have 2gb of physical storage but the task manager application shows it to be at 95% capacity.

    :)
