    Windows freezing at start of install


    Hi,
    as stated I cannot get windows to install,( on a seperate machine) its like a timer goes off and the process just hangs. I have tried USB and DVD but after the language choice screen appears I have about 3 seconds and headphone, keyboard and mouse lights go out and the process stops. the iso size is 3.416gb but came with no version number?
    Thanks


    :)

    Anniversary Update Windows 10

    For Months I Have Been Trying To Update & Install Windows Anniversary Update. The Update Will Download and Then Start Installing But Always Freezes At 82%,Every Single Time. Everytime I Turn my Computer on it Starts To Automatically Install,Then Freezes
    So I Have To Force Shut The Computer Down.Sometimes I Leave it For 9hrs But it Just Freezes At 82%.

    Freezing

    Dell Optiplex 760 desktop freezes when window start to update, tried to let it update many times but every time it will freeze on the window logo, I tried to run diagnostic but it freezes at 5%. I remove the hard drive, put in a new hard drive and tried
    to install window from a disc but it freezes after loading files. Could this be bad power supply. It will not install the standalone KB and will not finish troubleshoot because it freezes.

    Windows freezing at start of install

    You can get fresh 1607 version from Microsoft. Search Windows 10 media creator. USB or ISO. Watch search result for true Microsoft web page. There are other ISO's listed within these forums that can also be downloaded.

    There is a page in the Ten forums on your MB.

    https://www.tenforums.com/installatio...-win-10-a.html Have you reference it? It also references another post when dealing incompatibilities.

    Guiness,

    If you are installing W10 on an older machine, please take a good look at the Windows 10 System Requirements!
