"Windows could not complete the installation" after restoring Lenovo T61 to factory settings, help!

Hi everyone;
I recently tried to restore T61 laptop to factory settings and I received the message "Windows could not complete the installation. To install windows on this computer, restart the installation". I used Dr. Google to see if I could fix the problem; but unfortunately after re-starting multiple times, restoring to factory settings (after changes to the Administrator account as well as "Oobe" settings, in any number of combinations); I still get the same error message. Any thoughts? I'm attempting to reinstall Windows Vista Business. I do apologize I'm not a computer person so if you need any additional details please let me know; thanks in advance!

Hi,
It may be a good idea to run a couple of hardware tests.
Shut down the notebook.
Tap away at the esc key as you start the notebook to enter the Start-up Menu. Select the Diagnostic Menu option ( f2 ) and run the tests on the Hard Drive and Memory.
If you get any error messages/codes, post back with the details.
If the tests pass, you can order a replacement set of Recovery Discs starting on the link below - the cost does vary a little depending on where you live, but they're generally inexpensive.
Order HP Recovery Media.
If you have any problem with this link, see if you can order this directly from HP.
If you live in the US, contact HP Here.
If you are in another part of the world, start Here.
Regards,
DP-K

Windows could not complete the installation

Hello,
I ordered the Windows 7 recovery cd's and when I run the process, which takes several hours, I end up with this message:
"Windows could not complete the installation. To install Windows on this computer, restart the installation". Has anyone seen this before. I did receive a third disc labeled "Application and Driver Recovery CD". Should this have been loaded when it asked if I received a supplemental disc? Could this cause the problem?
Thanks for your help.

Hi:
I had the same issue, and couldn't figure it out. Tried it twice. The disks should be numbered. You boot from the disk labeled Disk 1 and follow the on screen instructions and it tells you what disks to add in turn.
My installation went all the way to the end where it told me to remove all the disks. So, when I thought it was done and was running windows for the first time, that error appeared.
I gave up and did this...
If you can read the 25 character Microsoft windows 7 product key, you can download plain Windows 7 ISO files to burn to a DVD for the version of windows that came installed on your PC, and that is listed on the Microsoft COA sticker on your PC's case.
Burn the ISO using the Burn ISO option on your DVD burning program and burn at the slowest possible speed your program will allow. This will create a bootable DVD.
Use the 25 character product key on the PC to activate the installation.
The key will activate either a 32 or 64 bit installation.
Then go to the PC's support and driver page to install the drivers you need.
Link to the W7 ISO file downloads is below.

"Windows could not complete the installation"

I took delivery of a new T400 today. Imagine my surprise upon turning it on to see the Windows F8 recovery menu, and a message about the system not having been shut down cleanly. Strange thing on a machine straight from the facory !
Well anyway I let it boot into the normal mode. Next the OS booted and something obviously ran to install updates. I suspect that one of these failed. Eventually I was presented with a dialog that says "Windows could not complete the installation" and "To install Windows on this computer, restart the installation". Sadly this same dialog displays regardless of how many times I reboot.
Reading the scanty doc that came with the machine, it appears to have a recovery partition and a way to invoke a factory restore from the partition. Unfortunately entering recovery mode does not work (I press F11 and it goes ahead and boots into Vista anyway).
Next I tried calling Lenovo. They politely said that they are not working at this hour and I should call back in the morning. Well I am planning to take this new laptop on a business trip in the morning and won't have time to call before I have to be at the airport.
So back to self-diagnosis...I found that when in the 'All your install are belong to us' mode, I could press ctl-alt-del and get task manager up. From there I could run commands such as cmd.exe and msconfig. Using msconfig I opened the event viewer. Nothing too interesting in there, except that a service or driver called tuvu...somethign didn't start.
Another thing I found is that there is no way any longer to get to the F8 safe mode menu on boot. It just blips on the screen for a nanosecond and then it's gone (even if you have pressed F8). So I used msconfig to boot into safe mode. That didn't help.
I've always bought cheapo off-brand laptops from Costco, and this was my first 'premium brand' purchase. To say the least I am not impressed. Surely Lenovo can spare 10 minutes to ensure that each machine actually boots before they ship ??
Any pointers on how to fix this machine are most welcome.
UPDATE : I made some progress on my own. On a whim I decided to go looking for the process that had so rudely decided that I couldn't use my computer. Browsing the process list in taskman, I noticed something called 'runonce.exe'. So I did the obvious thing and killed it. Bingo ! I now have the vista desktop and the machine appears to be working just fine. It's now updating. Presumably I can find and disable this thing that used the runonce wrapper and I'll be good to go,.

I had this same problem on my T61 and after seeing yoru post I imaged my system successfully to get rid of the problem on my system. You can image it without making burning any discs. What I did was hit the Thinkvantage button during boot, chose the Restor System option, chose full factory reset, chose to delete all my files and then chose the custom option for recovery. I don't remember exactly which items I unchecked, but there were a few towards the end that had OOBE in the name. I let it complete the restore and it seems to be working fine now. So you might want to try doing it that way, I was hoping that one of the things I unchecked was whatever was causing the system to crash near the end of install and mess up the Vista installation.
Good luck! Hopefully this will work for you instead of just wasting like 3 hours...

"Windows Could Not Complete the Installation" G410

Hi,
Would greatly appreciate any advice for this.
My laptop (G410) first started having temporary freezing issues when I loaded up Powerpoint. Next thing i know, the laptop dies and whenever I turned it on, it kept getting stuck in the Lenovo loading screen.
After a while, I managed to activate the refresh but now I am stuck with the following message: "Windows could not complete the installation". This happens when the setting up a few more things screen reaches 3%.
Any solutions to this? The laptop is only a few months old.
Thanks!

hi cny1491,
Welcome to the Lenovo Forums.
Can you try to turn off the computer and press the OneKey Recovery Button. When done, the machine will turn on and will give you a menu. On the list of options, select System Recovery to restore the system to its factory state (note that all data will be wiped on the OS partition).
If the machine freezes during the recovery process then I recommend you contact lenovo and report the issue as there's definitely a malfunctioning component inside (possibly the HDD).

Windows could not complete the installation recovery error message with HP recovery discs

While doing a system recovery on an HP G72-b50US notebook using HP purchased recovery DVD's, the reboot "Welcome" screen always (tried 5 recovery attempts from scratch) generates the error message "Windows could not complete the installation. To install Windows on theis compuiter, restart the installation". any attempt at a reboot, even into safe mode, regenerates this same error message. How does this get fixed to allow completion of the installation process?

I wish I could tell you.
I also used the HP factory recovery disks on an 8200 Elite CMT. I used them once before with no problem.
The second time was a show-stopper. The recovery process would ask for all 4 disks, then the recovery installation would begin, reboot continue on, everything normal.
Then on the last reboot, when the recovery program stated it was configuring windows, it just quit and stated Windows could not complete the installation.
I made sure that I had absolutely nothing connected to the PC except the keyboard, mouse and monitor.
The only thing I can possibly think of was that I installed a Radeon HD 6570 video card which I replaced the Radeon HD 6350 card with. However, both cards are supported in the PC, and I cannot remember if I did the restore with the 6350 the last time or the 6570.
Now, the reason the ISO file will work is because this is a plain and simple Microsoft Windows 7 ISO file--the very same one that you download when you purchase W7 online from the very same download site.
It is not PC-specific and will install on any PC in the world.
A recovery disk is PC-specific, and is a very complicated mish-mash of programs, drivers, operating system, all customized for your specific model PC. Even something like installing a new hard drive or memory can foul up the works.
The downside of using the plain MS disk is the only programs and drivers you can install are the ones found on your notebook's support and driver page.
The upside of using the plain W7 installation, is you normally end up with a better performing PC, free of bloatware and unnecessary running processes.
For someone like me, it is a non-issue, but for others, they may miss some of the included software.
But that is better than having a computer that is of no value with no operating system installed, wouldn't you agree?

System Recovery hangs on "Windows could not complete the installation"

Just purchased the recovery media from HP (3 DVD + App/Driver DVD, see below), followed instructions on clean recovery and the install hangs at first Windows login with the following error:
"Windows could not complete the installation. To install Windows on this computer, restart the installation"
Well, I've started fresh 3 times now with the same results. (3 hours each time)
I was able to start task manager at this error, I even tried to hold down shift and click restart. Doing that, I get the message windows can't be installed in safe mode. I was thinking of doing a plain Windows install but there is no product key on the laptop
Thoughts?
-David

Problem resolved. Make sure you use the boot from DVD UEFI option.

Windows could not complete the installation. To install Windows...

I have a G62-340US that had a hard drive crash. I installed a new hard drive and used the HP Restore Disks. The laptop will go through the boot process and Windows will give a message" Setting up system for first time use" or something to that affect. A diolog box then comes up and says "Windows could not complete the installation. To install Windows on this computer, restart the installation." If I hit enter, I am caught in a loop. I can control-alt-del and kill audit.exe and bring up the system. However, everytime I reboot, I get the above error.
The system is running Win7 64 bit.
Any ideas on how to complete this installation and move forward?
Also, the HDD is 320 gb but the system is only recognizing 68 gb.
Thanks for your assistance!

Hi:
That happened to me too and I tried twice to get the disks to work and the failure occurred at the same place.
If you bought a new hard drive of at least the same size in GB as the old one, the disks should have worked.
There is no telling why they don't and many folks have issues with the recovery disks for one reason or another.
Fortunately there is a method you can use to get W7 back on your PC if you can read the full 25 character windows product key on the bottom of your PC.
Here's what you can do...
If you can read the 25 character Microsoft windows 7 product key, you can download plain Windows 7 ISO files to burn to a DVD for the version of windows that came installed on your PC, and that is listed on the Microsoft COA sticker on your PC's case.
Burn the ISO using the Burn ISO option on your DVD burning program and burn at the slowest possible speed your program will allow. This will create a bootable DVD.
Or use the Windows 7 USB/DVD installation tool to compile the ISO file you download from Digital River. Link and instructions below. You need a 4 GB flash drive to use the USB method of compilation.
http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msstore/html/pbPage.Help_Win7_usbdvd_dwnTool
Use the 25 character product key on the PC to activate the installation.
The key will activate either a 32 or 64 bit installation.
Then go to the PC's support and driver page to install the drivers you need.

Windows 8 - Windows could not cmplete the installation. To install Windows on this computer, restart the installation

Having SCCM 2012 SP1 CU3 I attempted to do a pretty simple task.
Create a capture media for Windows 8 64 Bit and capture the OS.
The system in question is a Dell Latitude 6430u and OEM Windows 8.
The system ran as expected, the capture went as expected, but when I deploy the image (Back to the same laptop mind you)
The following occurs:
Windows could not complete the installation. To install Windows on this computer, restart the installation.
Things that I've tried:
Set the SATA to various modes as it was on RAID on as speculated in some posts
Saw a posting that suggests pressing SHIFT F-10 to get in to some prompt and run oobe; doesn't work here, I think.
Added Dell Driver Packs for the system
As for log files, I'll check C:\Windows\Panther and see what's there.
Any ideas on how to correct this? Is there a way to go in to the image itself to do so?

Sorry, I'm not using CM2007, but CM 2012 SP1, CU3.
I went through the smsts log and found several instances where drivers were missing so I'm guessing that's why it pitched a wobbly about not being a suitable system for the Windows setup.

Which doesn't make sense since the image that I am trying to put on the system is the one I took it from. Before putting the image out I went to Dell's web site and got the Windows 8 drivers for the system and distributed them as I usually do.
I got the drivers from here -
http://en.community.dell.com/techcenter/enterprise-client/w/wiki/4372.latitude-6430u-windows-8-driver-cab.aspx
What I don't get is that I can take the Windows 8 install.wim and do an OSD task with it and there is no issue with drivers.
One other thing here is the log from the windows\panther folder:

Illustrator CC 2014 won't launch (Could not complete the requested operation) even after fresh install (3 times), anyone know how to solve? (Windows 8.1)

Hi guys, my Illustrator CC 2014 won't launch, getting an error message "Could not complete the requested operation", this is not a specific file issue I can't launch Illustrator stand alone. I've un-installed and re-installed about 3 times and contacted support but they haven't been able to solve as of yet. It's a relatively fresh install of windows 8.1 and no custom fonts have been added. I've tried deleting the preferences folders and launching and that has not had any effect. No idea what else I can do, any help would be greatly appreciated.
Edit: Forgot to mention I have also tried running Illustrator as administrator and that Illustrator was running perfectly fine on this computer since install (about 2 weeks) before this started happening.
Thanks
Chris

"Could not complete the "...."command because of a program error" PE10, Windows 7, 64 bit

I have just done a clean re-install of PE10 on my windows 7, 64 bit desktop because I was getting the "Could not complete the "...."command because of a program error" message every time I try to do anything to my file such as applying a filter, enhance or anything. After I re-installed it, I still am getting the same results, making it completely useless. I do not use PE10 often, as I use Lightroom 5.3 almost exclusively for my picture manipulations, but I do need it for some purposes. Please help.

"...create a new layer by selecting the new layer icon at the bottom of the layers pallet..."
That produces a blank layer. With this blank layer selected, you should get the message "Could not complete the command because the selected area is blank".

Error: "Could not complete the requested operation" when you start Illustrator CS2 (Windows XP)

Hi everybody i'm nick from KL Malaysia, i having a problem with my Illustrator CS2 problem can't solved it, someone can help me?
My problem is when i open lllustrator after load finish the file thn will come out Error: "Could not complete the requested operation", i dunno y?
Have someone same problem with me anot? got any stion to solved it?

Nick,
The first thing to try is to
a) Ctrl/Cmd+Alt/Option+Shift during startup,
or (if a) does not work)
b) Move the folder
a) is easy but irreversible, b) is more thorough and reversible, so if you like your settings and do not want to destroy them in vain, use b).

Error message "could not complete the video frames to layers command because dynamiclink is not avai

So I decided to try my hand at making gifs and so I attempted to upload a video by going to file -> import -> video frames to layers. Before even letting my pick my video it comes up with an error message saying "could not complete the video frames to layers command because dynamiclink is not availible." I then tried file -> open -> and then selected the video and no matter what file type or size I chose I ended up with the same error message.
I looked this problem up and attempted some of the solutions but to no avail. I tried clearing my preferences and restarting photoshop many times in addition to restarting my computer. I also checked to make sure it wasn't being blocked by any firewalls and it wasn't. My opperating system is Windows 7 and I'm using photoshop cs6. I've looked everywhere for an answer to this problem so if anyone is able to help me solve this problem I'd be much obliged.

You see my C:\ drive is quite small as it's a SSD, so I made Adobe install programs on my E:\ drive too, however this was the main cause for Adobe not to function.
After adjusting the settings to install everything back to my C:\ drive, it fixed my issue above and allowed me to run the 64bit version.

Could not complete the Crop command because of a program error - Win 7

So I use PS CC everyday for cropping out images from design mockups for websites.
Yesterday (1 April 2014) I got a new comp from the designer with some updated images. So I opend the comp, and began to setup the cropped area with my guides. I then grabbed the marquee tool and made my selection, clicked Image->Crop, and then I get an error message.
"Could not complete the Crop command because of a program error."
Well that is helpful.
So now its "Help me Google, you're my only hope.", after about an hour or so of searching this error I find that it mostly happens to Mac users. I am using Windows 7. I also find that people are trying to get information form a PSErrorLog.txt file that is suppsoed to be located in the "Preferences Folder"... again I am on Windows 7.
So more searching to find the Windows eqivelant of this file's location: C:\Users\{USERNAME}\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC\Adobe Photoshop CC Settings
Only to find there is no PSErrorLog.txt file. I do have a sniffer-out.txt file and a bunch of .psp files, a SynchFiles folder and 2 Workspaces folders (one Modified).
So I say to myself, "Well, I have cloud and a fast connection, won't take long to reinstall." So I delete PS ( I am also runnig DW, FL, Br, and AI ), and PS only. I do not run the cleaner tool as it only wants to delete a PS driver, or EVERYTHING!, which I do not want to do, I just want to delete PS. So I delete PS and check for anything left behind (why is there always stuff left behind? Apparently DELETE really means "Only delete some parts of the app that are required to make it work, and leave the rest behind.", or something.). Anyway, I then reinstall, go to crop again, and get the same error.
So here I am, "Help me Adobe Forums, you're my only hope."

Mylenium,
You are correct. But none of that information, or those parameters, have ever had any effect on cropping anything in PS before. I crop vector smart objects brought in from AI all the time. In this case, yes the layers I am trying to crop are vector smart objects, which I rasterized and merged, then resaved the document and still get the same issue.
But, going off of your suggestion, I did flatten the image completely and I am now able to crop it without error. I suspect that there is something else in the layers that maybe causing this issue, as you have mentioned.
Thank you for your input, while you may not have known it, you gave me at least somewhere to start to try and figure out what is happening.
