Win7 64 Bit Crashes After Install On First Reboot
OK so after buying 64 bit, dual core laptop(l305-S5934 Toshiba) I had a copy of Win 7/64 bit, and after a partition of the drive loaded the 64bit version, and it lo0aded and updated perfectly no issues, down loaded antivirus and few other neat things I wanted, and restarts to a blue screen crash dump.So figured it was bad load, formated that partition reloadd, did it again, ok figured it may be updates and drivers, does it even if I dont update, it just crashes only way ot bring it up is in safe mode.
so my quiestion is this as I am sort of a newb on lap tops, could this lap top not like the 64 bit version, yet even though I can up grade to Vista 64 bit?Toshiba Satelite,L305-S5934, 2.0 turion X2 64, RM-70, 3 GB pc-6400 DDR2 Ram, 250 gb hdd.Now its has ran perfectly with Win7 32bit since loading , in fact the Vista partition is having shut down issues and & is stable as a rock.Thanks for any ideas that might give me chance to get the 64bit version going is appreciated.

Cannot Install Win7 RC, Crashes And Restarts Continuously After First Reboot
I have an ASUS M2N68-VM MB with 4GB Ram and a 1TB HD. I have attempted to install Windows 7 64bit RC bit which I downloaded 2 days ago.Windows gets thru the install process, then re-boots the PC for the first time.During the first reboot, I get the the "Windows" screen where the red/green/blue balls move around, then the PC reset and Restarts. It will continue to do that infinitum.If I try and go to "Safe Mode" windows says it has not finished installed yet and will not let me.The PC was running Unbutu up until now, and has been a stable box working as a Video Server. Nothing wrong with the hardware.Â

Reboot Loop After Install Of Win7 RC
I am having an issue after windows 7 rc installs then reboots on my Asus w3j laptop.What happens is the laptop starts up, then I get the asus bios screen then the laptop reboots, and windows never loads.I had the same issue when windows vista came out, and it was fixed by a BIOS update from ASUS.The previous windows 7 beta version worked fine, so im guess something has changed in the RC so make my laptop go into the reboot loop.

Win7 Install Fails On Last Reboot
I am attempting to install the Windows 7 beta. I am currently running 32 bit Vista on a Dell XPS 720 with a GEForce 8800.I had a spare disk which I installed and formatted. I attempted to install Windows 7 to it. The installation proceeded without incident, but on the last reboot (I think it's the last), the Starting Windows sceen displays, the startup twirling logo displays, and then it displays a 'Windows 7 Beta Build 7000 For testing only' (or some such) message at the bottom right of the screen. The screen is otherwise black.There is some disk activity through the startup, but it then slows and the disk light seems to blink pretty regularly once a second, with no apparnte change in that pattern. I've waited for hours but nothing happened. The mouse can move around the screen, but the install does not proceed. The dual boot was correctly set up and I can freely boot to either system, but each attempt to start up Windows 7 meets the same end.I tried starting Windows7 in safe mode, but I get a message box saying that the intallation cannot complete in safe mode. I tried starting in 640x480 mode, but that had no effect - the install still stalls...Any idea what's going on?

Win7 32 / 64 Bit Cd Keys, 32 Bit Install Disc
This morning I attended a Windows 7 Launch developer presentation as part of the New Efficiency. We were given copies of Windows 7 Ultimate at the end of the presentation, however I was disappointed to find it was only 32-bit. It says so on the disc. My question is, is there somewhere I can get a hold of a copy of Win 7 Ultimate 64 bit (say, a download site?), and install it with my CD key I was given? Also, am I right in assuming that my CD key will work for both 64 and 32 bit?

BSOD: Pc Crashes Once In A While , With Blue Screens And Reboot
The pc crashes once in a while , with blue screens and reboot. I had the same prob with winxp so i installed Windows 7 supposing that restarts would stop...But nothing.. So far i have done these: remove the tick on "automatically restart" -> (so i could see the blue screen.. update drivers, with device manager and driver genius -> nothing update bios from asus website -> nothing do check disk -> nothing defrag -> nothing usb legacy support disabled from bios (smwhere read that)->nothing sptd.sys fixed -> nothing Rc task disabled (read that too) -> nothing sleep and hibernation set to never - >nothing run memtest (3.5) but i have difficulties because when it starts testing (single cpu or multiple) at test 2 and 45% reboots. when i choose to run memtest previous version (3.4) it recognizes cpu as pentium 3 and completes the test with 10 errors at test 5. I noticed that asus set to my memories timings 5-5-5-12 and voltage 1,8 , so i put timings 4-4-4-12 and voltage 2.2 (manufacture had these timings although gives voltage 2.0)

Win7 RC (both 32 And 64-bit) Install Fails
system is currently set-up as a multi OS (multi-boot) platform using Terabyte "Boot It NG" (BING) as the boot manager. After downloading the MS Win7 ISO's I burned (using ImgBurn) to Verbatim DVD's (Taiyo Yuden mfg.) at the slowest burn rate possible. I then used my BING software to create a primary partiion of about 22GB to prepare for the install. Of course I went into my BIOS to set the boot order to DVD first, HD second. By the way, all settings in the BIOS are set to default and there is absolutely NO overclocking involved.What HappensInserting the DVD and rebooting the machine starts the process normally. I get the "Press any key to start DVD" message, and then the DVD seems to begin the "setup" operation. I get the "loading files" message at the bottom of the screen, the the "Starting Windows" message with the four converging colored lights that meet to form the MS logo. A few seconds later the screen goes black, the DVD stops spinning, all activity just stops. After several reboots and trying the process anew, I finally let it sit there for about an hour to see what it would do....nothing. This failure is exactly the same with both the 32 and 64-bit versions. Things I tried:I used IsoBuster to extract the MS Iso to a folder. I then installed a clean copy of WinXp Sp3 to a new primary partition, moved the extracted Win7 folder to that partition, and sucessfully ran the install of Windows 7 32-bit. The OS runs smooth and fine on my current platform. I have not tried this technique yet with Win7 64-bit, but will install my version of Windows XP 64-bit Edition when I have a chance and repèat the installation from within that OS as I just described above.ThoughtsThere is clearly a problem with the current Windows 7 RC installer. After reading the numerous posts both in this forum and others on the Web, I suspect there is an incompatibility with either the NForce 430 chipset or more likely, the ATI graphics card and/or my LCD monitor. I do not have access to a CRT monitor so I cannot investigate that avenue of troubleshooting. Other areas that may be problematic are the 4GB memory I have installed and/or the ECC. I have never, ever, had a boot problem with any software (CD or DVD) in my current optical configuration, so clearly there is an issue with the MS installer. Pleae take this post not as a critisizim (sp?) of your product, but merely an observation of a significant problem with the current release candidate. It is after all, a Release Candidate (ie, beta software) and these things are to be expected.Â

How Can I Test 64-bit Drivers/2nd Win7 Install
I'm currently using Win 7 RC 32-bit on this comp, and am looking to move to 64-bit by the time RTM comes round. My question is - everything except my scanner has 64-bit drivers. There is this program that included 64-bit compatibility with a large number of scanners, and mine is listed. Is there anyway I could install a second Windows 7 on a third partition (of this same hard drive), and try the driver with that to check it works? As I understand it you can't test drivers etc. in a VM install.

Win7 Won't Install On 64 Bit Compatible Hardware
I just built a custom PC using the guts of an older Alienware with a few new upgrades:MOBO: Asus P5N32-SLI DeluxeCPU: Intel Pentium D 3.4GHz (4MB L2) supports EM64TRAM: 4GB (4X1GB) I tried installing a retail copy of Win7 Ultimate 64-bit and i get as far as the beautiful blue flowery background and a mouse cursor that just sits there doing nothing. When i pop in the 32-bit DVD, then i can install without a problem. Once the 32-bit installation finished up, i checked the "performance information and tools" and the reports stated that my machine is indeed 64-bit capable. I also checked the Intel and Asus support sites and determined that both my CPU and chipset are 64-bit compatible. The only other thing i can think of is that the Win7 DVD does not contain a 64-bit version of my SATA controlller and thus cannot access my hard drive. The issue with that is there doesn't seem to be an option to load drivers as it used to be available in XP by pressing F6.Any ideas?

Win7 Crashes When I Turn Off The Monitor
I'm using the RC1 (build 7100 I believe). I have an nVidia GeForce 8600 GT connected via DVI to an Acer p223w monitor set at 1680x1050 resolution. Windows 7 always crashes (reboots) whenever I turn off the monitor (i.e. I press the power button to turn it off). It doesn't crash if the monitor sleeps (via power saving feature); only when I physically turn the monitor off. It doesn't crash Win XP when I turn off the monitor. And after I installed the June 18, 2009 nVidia (beta) Win 7 WHQL drivers, the problem seemed solved as it no longer crashed (tested only twice and on the same day though) when I turned the monitor off but after about a week or so, it started crashing again. I'm currently using the 64 bit version of Win 7 RC1 but I had the same problem with the 32 bit beta version of Windows 7. With the launch date of Windows 7 coming soon, I hope to have this problem resolved by then.

Win7 Crashes And Reboots On Laptop
I have a Toshiba Satellite A300 model and Windows 7 RC 32 Bits. Usually when I have nothing opened and I disconnect the power cord of my laptop, windows 7 gives me a windows kernel error and it restarts. The chance of this error increases when I have software active, and nearly 100% when I'm gaming, with any game. Why this happens?

Win 7 64 Bit Fails Installation After Reboot
I just built a new PC and figured i would install it with a fresh copy of Windows 7 RC1 so i wouldn't have to pay for Vista. After some weird Installation hangs (5 minutes) to finally get the dvd to spin and another 5 minutes after you click the "install" button everything seemed to go very smooth. Installed in about 10 minutes. Rebooted and was finalizing installation. As soon as it gets to Windows I see a error message pop up so quick and then it shuts down. The message goes something like "windows cannot complete the installation...." When i turn it back on it does the same thing over and over again.. Any thoughts?

Win 7 64 Bit No Login Screen After Reboot
With rthe exception of the Nivida driver stopping and supposed restart (using the 19x.xx version), I was functioning fairly well. I installed "The Master Genealogist v7" and after it reboted, I get the logo screen, but not the Welcome screen... the HD still appears active but never comes up. I've tried the Safe Modes, still nothing past the logo. I've tried to boot from DVD to repair with 2 different burns of the ISO, but it will not boot from the DVD (both copies were burned on the same drive). When I boot from the other HD, I see the contents of the Win7 HD, and scandisk is not finding errors on the drive.Any idea as to which file may be corrupted.

Win7 Crashes When Try To Boot Win98 In Virtual PC
So I wanted to install 98se in windows virtual PC just to test it out.The install process didn't go to well, but I finally managed to get to the "loading screen".And then windows 7 gave me a Blue screen that said that the 2nd core did not reply with a clock signal in the alloted time or something of the sort.I realize that WVPC doesn't support 98 (and I was just testing it out not really planning to use it too much) , so I'm not really asking for a fix, rather just alerting Microsoft about this.

Vista 64-bit To Win7 32-bit Can't Use Backup And Restore Center
If you plan on moving from 64-bit to 32-bit (and I presume 32-bit to 64-bit) you will not be able to use the Windows 7 Backup and Restore Center as this application needs to run on the old computer first to backup the data. You can't run the 32-bit version of Windows 7 Backup and Restore Center on Windows Vista 64-bit. Therefore, you can't backup the data... the first step in the process.Can I use the 64-bit version of Windows 7 Backup and Restore Center to backup the data and then restore it using the 32-bit version of Windows 7?Can I use the 64-bit version of Vista's built-in Backup and Retore to backup the data, and use Windows 7 32-bit Backup and Restore Center to READ the data?

Guide To Drivers For Upgrading Dell Inspiron 1525 From Vista 32-bit To Win7 64-bit
guide to drivers for upgrading a Dell Inspiron 1525 from Vista 32-bit to Vista 64-bit or Windows 7 64-bit. The Dell Inspiron 1525 is an extremely popular model of laptop and is a very good choice for a Dual-Core cpu at a relatively good price point. However, it has one very big drawback, it ships with only a 32 bit OS. Simply put, a dual-core cpu is a 64-bit processor and the operating system that comes with the laptop is Microsoft Vista Home, which operates at 32-bits. Youâve paid for four lanes of highway, but youâre only using two! Upgrading to Windows XP 64 bit, Vista 64 bit, or even the Windows 7 beta (test version) 64 bit operating system is the only way to take advantage of the additional speed youâve paid for. And it is worth it. Dell does not support, suggest, or recommend upgrading your OS to anything other than the factory installed OS. So if you upgrade, youâre on your own. If youâre unsure of how this may affect your warranty, I strongly suggest you contact Dell before doing any modification of your OS. I also highly suggest you back up all of your data, either to an online storage spot or to cd/dvd discs where you can easily access it after the upgrade is complete. (NOTE: I recommend you make that a bi-weekly, if not a bi-daily, habit) Backup! Backup! Backup! Next make sure you have all of the original CDâs and installation material that came with your laptop in case you want to restore the original settings later on. There are hundreds of online guides that will walk you through the upgrade process. Google it and you should be able to find one that works for you. Dell does not offer a readily available list of drivers for 64-bit operating systems. The purpose of this here is simply to give a list of drivers that I downloaded that worked for me. After doing a fresh, clean install of Vista 64-bit, I got out the Driver Installation disk that came with my Inspiron 1525. On that disk, there are several drivers that are already 64-bit compatible. Insert the disk and select Vista 64 bit under Operating System. Click on extract for each driver you want and under the View pane it will tell you if it is 64-bit compatible. Some drivers under the Vista 32 bit section will also show if they are compatible with 64 bit. Install each of the drivers that meet the criteria. Alternatively, you can go to the Dell Website and enter your Service Tag number (from the back of the laptop) and Dell will provide you a list of all drivers that shipped with your laptop. Click on each one and select the Compatibility option to see if it is 64 bit or not. If it is, download and install. As I said before, Dell does not have a readily available list of drivers that may be needed after a clean install of a 64 bit OS. Here I will offer the drivers that I hunted down that worked for my installation of both Vista 64 bit and Windows 7 beta 64 bit. These drivers are not necessarily listed as being for the Inspiron 1525, but I have installed them and they provide the same functionality on the 1525 as their 32-bit counterparts. To find them, simply go to Dellâs website, in the drop down box next to the search bar select âSupport and Helpâ and type the R number in the search bar. The driver should be the first one listed. Click and download. Once downloaded, double click to install. That simple. Important: Dell Support Center does not work with 64 bit OS. Dell DataSafe Online works, but not very well. For online backup, try MOXY. Dell Media Direct 3.5 may be permanently deleted from your system if you upgrade and may not fully re-install even when performing a complete re-install via the reinstallation disk provided by Dell. Â A few other things that Iâd like to mention. First, is that you may find it difficult for some of your applications or software to work with a 64 bit OS. Try Compatibility mode. This will work for probably 60% - 80% of all software. For the rest, itâs hit or miss. Check the softwaresâ website for suggestions. Secondly, if your Inspiron 1525 has a built in webcam, try this: When installing, change the default installation directory from âC:ProgramFiles (x86)Dellâ to just âC:Program FilesDellâ. This simple change was all that was needed to fix a very pesky problem which was preventing me from using the Webcam. And if you find any other software giving you a hard time, ie: ScreenSavers, this solution may well work for them too. Third, you may need to re-install the Sigmatel STAC 92xx C-Major HD Audio driver after you install the webcam to get the built-in microphone to work correctly. During one install, I had to do this, during another I didnât. So I just offer it up as a suggestion if needed. Â NOTE: You can obtain a free test version of Windows 7 beta from Microsoft, but they do warn that its license expires in August of 2009 and you will need to uninstall it after that point. Therefore, I only recommend using Windows 7 for those who are technically inclined. Stick with Vista if you donât want to, or donât like to, install a clean copy of the OS every few months. I will strongly urge you to purchase a copy of Windows 7 once it becomes commercially available as I have almost nothing but good things to say about the beta (test) version. Iâm pretty sure the bag of chips will be included in the price.

Samsung Vista GDI Driver Install Crashes
I have a nice Samsung ML4500. Not that new, but then I don't use my printer very much. But it is useful at times. So... I have the Vista ML4500 GDI driver installation package for it. I run it by right clicking in compatibility mode.I've done this three times now. The first two times, it crashed my machine dead as soon as the Samsung splash screen appeared. Video broke up, screen blanked and then only a hard reset fixed it.Third time, despite same compatibility mode operation, the Samsung installer just tells me that the driver is incompatible with this version of windows. Unfortunately, since it's a prepacked installation in an exe file, I can't get at any of the real files, inf, sys etc to see if I can by pass the installer's front end.I've also tried the Vista GDI drivers for other similiar models, which give me similar results. If anyone has any ideas on how to resolve this, other than approaching Samsung which I think is likely to prove unproductive, I'd love to hear from them! Edit: now, from another post, realised how I can unpack the driver set from the installer. I've done this, but the raw setup.exe still crashes win 7... I've now also tried the right click on the inf file in the Vista 64 subdir of the install package, but it tells me this method of installation is unsupported.

Install Failure When Booting From HDD First Time It Crashes
I tried to install RC1 64Bit on a clean hard disk. It all seemed fine, got trough copy/expand files. Then it boots from hdd for the first time and tells me something about registry settings... and then it crashes, just like a reboot. Next time the boot manager goes up telling me that windows didnt shutdown/boot correctly. When I choose normal boot, it will just crash again (nice boot-crash-loop). When I choose safe mode i can get to desktop gui but a popup tells me that setup cannot finish in safe mode... If formatted the hdd, disconnected all other drives/usb stuff. Updated BIOS to latest. Checked BIOS settings, played around with disabling/enabling onboard audio etc. No luck, several installs, all failed with the same problem. Sad that I dont get any error msg or blue screen/bug check. I also ran windows memory diagnostics - no problems. XP run's fine and now i installed Vista 64Bit, that worked.

Installing 64 Bit Win7 From Computer Running Vista 32 Bit
I understand that a custom (clean) install will be necessary to use Windows 7 64 bit. However, will I be able to copy items from a c:Windows.old folder to the new operating system, or will I have to put anything I want to keep on an external drive and manually transfer them back from the external drive.

Upgrade From Vista Business 32 Bit To Win7 Pro 64 Bit
I have tried to install this software and am unable to do so, either from the unpacked download file, or from the iso file which I created following a thread on another forum.I also tried to install Win 7 Pro using the full retail DVD version I have also purchased and entering the product key I received in the e-mail from Digital River. Is this because I tried a custom install after formatting the disc drive, rather than an upgrade install? (And yes I did double check that I was entering the correct product key exactly as shown in the e-mail.)In other words is the product key for an upgrade version of the software different from the full version. If it is then I will try to install from my retail DVD using the upgrade path which will be easier than trying to get the Digital River software to work.

Will Product Key For Win 7 64 Bit Business Upgrade Work With 32 Bit Install
I purchased several copies of Windows7 including the upgrade offer deal from Microsoft for Business. The upgrade CD came as a 64 bit which I will eventually install on my machine, but for the next several months I need to run 32 bit (legacy software which we are phasing out). Will the product key for the the 64 bit upgrade work with 32 bit install (I have a 32 bit Business which I have already installed on a different machine with its own product key).
