Windows 10: Cannot install windows 10

Hello, i have an IBM Thinkcentre desktop pc core 2 duo 1.86Ghz running on windows 7 ultimate. I have windows 10 cd and when i boot from cd to install windows 10, it is just stuck at the circle going round and doesnt go beyond that.

Windows 10 Unexpected shutdown on start up

OK, so i figured it out myself

Found the logfile in "C:\Windows\Minidump".

You need the Windows Development Kit to open it and a bit of googling to understand it.

Found out that a Daemon driver caused an error. Removed Daemon but this didn't solve it. (ps: Daemon itself worked normally).

I let hibernate my computer again and found another error with sptd2.sys: SCSI Pass Through Direct layer

More google and ended up on the duplexsecure site. Downloaded the W10 version and voila: problem fixed.

For the Windows support team: It would be really helpfull if you could pass problems to a more skilled helpdesk who can do more than proposing the standard solutions in case those won't work.

Cheers

 

Windows 10 Unexpected shutdown on start up

OK, so I also found out that this occurs when sleepmode (for me after 3 hours) changes into hibernate mode.

Seems like the going into hibernate and/or starting up from HIbernate results in a shutdown. In safeboot it works perfectly.

Anyone any idea how I can figure out where it goes wrong. Is there a way to log this (I couldn't find it in bootlog)

 

Maybe the download was corrupted or maybe a bad disk . Try downloading windows 10 again with the correct version and use a new disk, give that a go . Also, did your IBM Thinkcentre desktop ever had windows 10 installed and activated, if not ? The free upgrade is over. If it had 10 activated already then give what I said redownloading a new 10 iso

 

There is nothing wrong with the hard disc since it has Windows 7 installed on it. Also, I tried 3 different ISO same problem. And my pc never had 10 installed on it. Do u think my motherboard doesn't support 10? Strangely I can install 10 through DVD rom when I'm running Windows 7

 

I don't know whether your board does or doesn't support 10, but what I do know if your system never had windows 10 prior to July 29/16 deadline you wouldn't be able to get the free upgrade . What you need to ask is do you want to buy windows 10 now ? And why would you want to install 10 on an old computer? Windows 10 requirements

Processor: 1 gigahertz (GHz) or faster.
RAM: 1 gigabyte (GB) (32-bit) or 2 GB (64-bit)

I read somewhere that I can solve this problem by Turned off fast startup

 

Which problem can you solve by turning off Fast Startup?

 

I meant I can install Windows 10 by turning off Fast Startup

 

In addition you will also need a copy of Windows 10 on an installation medium such as a DVD or a USB stick.

 

Please update the Systems Specs in your forum profile with complete information.

• In the System Manufacturer/Model Number field, manually type Desktop or Laptop adding it to the information already in the field. The specific model number is important - there are often many models of a given series.
  For example, my machine is a HP Pavilion dv6, but there are tens of the dv6 series, so dv6-6c10us is the specific model.
  
  
• Specify Custom Build as the manufacturer if it is not an OEM machine.

The easiest way to do this is to use the information from a PUBLISHED Speccy report.
See: Speccy - Publish Snapshot of your System Specs

Post the link to the report that Speccy gives you and also open the Speccy link.
Then click here to view your System Specs on this forum.

When you have both windows open, put them side-by-side and simply copy the information, field by field, from the Speccy report to your System Specs.
