  1. Installing Windows stuck


    After lots of issues I am trying to reset my PC, and get a fresh install of Windows. The first reset said it failed, so I tried again. Now I have gotten to the installing windows phase, and it has been stuck at 88% for 4 hours. I know the usual answer is to wait it out/let it go overnight, and I will, but it seems like my computer keeps going to sleep, which I don't think it should be doing? At least, it times out and the screen turns off, and then when I wake it up it's still at 88%. I'm concerned something has stopped working, but since it says don't turn off your PC I obviously don't want to turn it off. Do I just keep letting it run and go to sleep?

    :)

  3. Windows 7 wont install drivers

    i dont think anyone here understands what your asking either when its nearly a 90% english dominated Tech forum.
    Step 1
    reinstall windows from scratch
    Step 2
    install all drivers from the cd that came with the god damn motherboard *common sense*
    Step 3
    update windows
    Step 4
    install misc etc crap like flash java etc etc
    Step 5
    Install GPU drivers
    Step 6
    go back to using your pc without issue.

    Installing Windows stuck

    stuck with Windows media problem

    still stuck

    Darren and Reign,
    I could still use your help.

    Things just aren't working and I have tried all I can think of plus your suggestions. I've done the WM codec installation. I have installed the encoder9. I have installed the community codec. I have tried to rollback the media player and reinstall various versions. Nothing has solved the problem.

    Two points of interest however.
    I installed windows XP video decoder check up utility. It lists about seven or eight different decoders...none of which are recommended as preferred MPEG 2 decoders. (I downloaded the same program to my vista drive and it lists as the first item a MPEG 2 decoder. It is checked in green but is still listed as "not recommend for the system a a preferred decoder." That line item decoder does not show up in the list on the XP drive).
    Also, I downloaded Quicktime. When I attempted to play a .wma file on it the visual was brighter than it has been to this point. That was encouraging even though the image was still darkened more than it should be. Unfortunately, in an effort to download further codec components the visual seems to have fallen back to its extremely darkened screen and I can no longer make out the images.

    I hope that information might trigger another thought from you as to another option that I might try.
    Thanks, chirp.
