I was running Windows Vista Ultimate 32 Bit so I put the disk in picked the upgrade option. it did all the stuff its supposed to then restarted the computer and began to load the new windows... after it was finished or just about to finish it restarted. Now when the computer restarts I have three options to choose from.
View 6 RepliesI had a virus that would redirect me to advertising, and it wouldn't let me scan for it on any anti virus software. No spyware worked, so I decided to load a new windows 7 on my laptop, fresh start. But as it got to the end of the installation where the menu said completing, it sat like that for 3 hours, so I turned it tooff, and now it keeps loading into the same thing that saids "the computer restarted unexpectedly or encountered an un expected error. Windows installation cannot proceed. To install windows, click ok to restart computer< and then restart installation", I click ok, and it just keeps restarting into the same menu.

The computer acts like it going to start up, but then an error comes up say "computer restarted unexpectedly or encountered an unexpected error".He has a back up disc, but still gets the same error when trying to use that. He cannot even go into repair mode when pressing f8.He does not have the original disc because it was preinstalled on his computer.

Last night after all the troubles with getting W7 Pro 64bit installed, I finally managed to do it using a USB.
This morning I start installing all my programs and I noticed that my "Windows Experience" number was 1.0. I assumed this was down to it not recognising my graphics card (Geforce 9600M GS).
I downloaded the drivers from Nvidia and installed them. Upon restarting, I received an unexpected error message giving me the option to repair the problem or run windows normally. The latter just caused the machine to restart everytime it was chosen, and the former took the system restore window.
Upon doing this it managed to get me back to the desktop and everything seemed fine. I tried installing the drivers again and it led to the same problem.
By this point I decided to try and reinstall windows from my USB stick. I performed the first section of this, it started on its own as its supposed to, and began trying to complete the installation. At the point where it said "Setup is starting services", a warning appeared saying:
"The computer restarted unexpectedly or encountered and unexpected error. Installation cannto proceed. To install Windows click OK to restart the computer and the installation."
Sure enough, clicking OK leads me to exactly the same message.
After getting sick of this I tried installing W7 for a third time and exactly the same thing happened. Now I am stuck with the choice of 3 Windows 7's on boot, all three leading to the same error.
I am completely lost, can anyone help?

My neighbor has just brought around his desktop saying he tried to load Win 7 over a Vista installation, now he says he cannot install Win 7 and Vista appears to have gone. When I fire it up, I get a screen saying "starting Windows", this then goes to a window saying "Setup Starting Services" which then comes up with the message: "The computer restarted unexpectedly or encountered an unexpected error. Windows installation cannot proceed. To install windows, click OK to restart the computer and then restart the installation"What has happened is: he has tried to install an upgrade version of win 7 that is meant to upgrade from the starter edition of Win 7 which he did not have installed and in doing so Vista has been wiped, but before I tell him this I am looking for a confirmation of my diagnosis, does this theory sound plausible? bye the way he does not have a Vista installation disk either!
View 3 Replies View RelatedLast night my computer was working fine before I left it on and went to bed. This morning I go to turn on the monitor to check my email and I see a windows setup screen with this error message:"The computer restarted unexpectedly or encounted an unexpected error. Windows installation cannot proceed. To install windows click "OK" to restart the computer, and then restart the installation."I have browsed some questions and answers about this error message but from all I have seen all individuals with this problem encountered it while they were reformatting or reinstalling windows 7 on a new computer. This just randomly happened to a working computer out of the blue. I'm not certain if there was a power surge but we do have surge protectors and our other 2 computers work just fine.I tried one solution of hitting Shift+F10 typing into the black command box "regedit" then going into the folders and changing the childcompletion from 1 to 3 in order to install windows. The problem is will uninstalling windows again wipe out my hard drives?
View 1 Replies View Relatedmy laptop wouldn't start up and came up with an error. I went back to windows when it was first purchased so I wouldn't lose my files too. Now when I start up it says "Setup is starting services" and after about 5 seconds it comes up with the error:"The computer restarted unexpectedly or encountered an unexpected error. Windows installation cannot proceed. To install Windows, click "OK" to restart the computer, and then restart the installation."The problem is whenever I click "OK" and it restarts it just comes back with the same error. It used to be a different error, Windows could not complete the installation for some reason that I cant remember. That also put me in this boot loop.I just want to find out how to fix this so I can go back to all my files that are very important. I cannot lose these files or my life will be over!

I was installing Win 7 Ultimate 32 bit onto my PC, and it went great at first, but when it came to "starting services", it popped up a box and said "the computer restared unexpectedly or encountered an unexpected error..." so I pressed "OK" then, the computer restarted and resumed to "starting services" and wants me to click ok for restarting...i can do nothing, cuz when the PC starts it shows only the DELL thing and straight into the installation....

View 2 Replies View RelatedMy computer has been shutting down unexpectedly for a while. I installed a new power supply, stopped using Internet Explorer, and replaced Vista with Windows 7. The problem seemed to go away. However, recently I've been getting the BSOD and having the computer shut down. Before I go buy a new computer (current one was purchased in 2007), I thought I'd see if anyone here has any suggestions. I went to the Event Manager and found the following errors in the Administrative Files that occurred around the time of the last shut down.
View 4 Replies View RelatedMy computer has been acting up of late. It's been freezing up at random times (even if I am running nothing). Trying to open up Task Manager, I don't see anything that could be using the CPU, but yet it says that i'm running at 100% capacity. MalwareBytes isn't picking up anything. Neither is Avast.Also, when I try to run anything Microsoft Office related I usually end up with a lot of lag. I'm not sure if these two are related, but I just thought I'd mention it.

View 2 Replies View RelatedMy computer unexpectedly shuts down while playing some games. I'll play for about 5 minutes, then I hear a beep and the computer immediately shuts down. I thought that maybe it was because I was putting too much strain on my gpu (nvidia gtx 230), so i tried lowering my settings, but that changed nothing. This only happens for some games, and occasionally, the computer will not shut down. I am using an hp dv7t laptop with a core i7 720 quad core processor and 4 gigs ram..

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've been having an issue with Windows Explorer when it's restarted. If I restart Windows Explorer, My Computer, My Documents, and Recycle Bin will not respond at all. If I try to move, copy, or delete a file it will just hang up and not respond.I don't have any of these issues when Windows Explorer runs the initial time after turning on my PC or login/relogin to an account. But if for some reason I need to restart Windows Explorer, I might as well just restart the PC or log out & back in of my account because these issues will just crop up.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI was playing a game when suddenly the screen froze. The system was completely unresponsive. The lights on the keyboard wouldn't even change when pressing Num Lock, Caps Lock or Scroll Lock. When rebooting, the system would not go into Windows. It would just make it past the "Starting Windows" screen and then freeze up again. I ran System Repair and let it do its thing. It took about 5 minutes then came back and gave me a general error message, saying it couldn't fix the problem. However, Windows did start correctly after System Repair was run. The problem occured a few more times. Mostly when playing games but also once whilst I was browsing the internet (music was playing also).
