Windows 10: "Input not supported" error while trying to install W10

I am trying to do a clean install of Windows 10 Home on a refurbished Dell OptiPlex 790 system. I am using a 1 Tb Western Digital HD on which I did a complete format before attempting to install from a purchased factory OEM CD.

To this point, I can't get far enough into the set up and installation to do anything within Windows, but I still get the bouncing gray box on a black screen with the "Input Not Supported" message.

I have tried changing the monitor setting from it's internal menu, but have not been able to find a setting that Windows seems to like.

Anyone have any suggestions...?

:)

 

current input timing is not supported

Hi,

Following up on your concern about the error The current input timing is not supported by the monitor display. Please change your input timing to 1366x768@60 Hz or any other monitor listed time as per the monitor specifications. How did
it go after trying DaveM121's suggestion?

Linux Noob - Ubuntu fails on install GRUB error 2

Did you burn the image on the slowest setting possible? Pop your disc in and try checking the disc for errors (booting from the disc). If it has an error on it then you have a bad install.

I just googled your motherboard and ubuntu... This thread is on the list. XD

If it's a bad install I'd suggest a different version of Ubuntu or to try Fedora instead. I had nothing but trouble with 8.04.

Also, try your connections. Sounds stupid but maybe the CD sent it and the hard drive couldn't get it or some weird thing like that. (Talking out my rear end now, but it's worth a shot)

Sorry I couldn't help more. *Frown
