Another Windows 7 Install Error

Here's what I've got:
Bootcamp 5.0
Mac Mini w/ 2 500gb drives
Mountain Lion, and Lion Server
Windows 7, Home Premium
Last night I went through maybe 10 progressive attempts at an install of Windows 7. First the screen went dark, I found solutions to that, so I was eventually able to get the Windows install to start. When I get to where I select the partition, I pick the bootcamp one, and format it. I know it formats to NTFS because when I reboot to OSX I can see it's NTFS.
The problem is, that I can't go beyond this point. I get an error that I can't install on that drive... (I'm at work, and I don't have the exact error text, but if it's necessary I can pull it up tonight). Has anyone ever had an error at this point? What have you done to fix it?
Thank you!!

Remove the second drive while installing. Read the Boot Camp Help files http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp/.

Windows 7 install error 0x80300024

Mac Pro with 4 internal hard drives. My primary startup drive (in bay #1) has 10.5 on it.
Wanted to install Windows 7, so needed Snow Leopard's Bootcamp to do that. The fourth hard drive in the machine was new, so wiped that, installed Snow Leopard, then used Boot Camp Assistant to add a partition to that drive for Windows.
Started the Windows 7 install (32 bit). Got to the screen where you choose which volume it will be installing onto, and selected the "BOOTCAMP..." labeled one. Pressed the Next button, which is where I encountered the 0x80300024 error.
That is, it said something like "Windows cannot be installed onto this drive. Error 0x80300024."
Found some posts here on the Apple forums, from The Hatter, advocating removing all the other hard drives when trying a Bootcamp install. The jist of it was, remove all other OS X system drives, or Windows gets confused about its install location. And, while you're at it, might as well pull ALL your other drives before the install for safety (so in my case, that meant the 10.5 system drive from bay #1, plus data drives from bays 2 and 3).
So I did that, re-ran the Boot Camp Assistant in Snow Leopard, having it start with the install. Now the Windows 7 install is going forward.
THANK YOU to THE HATTER!
It is a shame that nowhere on their support pages does Apple acknowledge install error 0x80300024. They really ought to add that to their Knowledge Base page on Boot Camp/Windows 7. That page is here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3986

Also, note that I would have added my comments to one of the threads where The Hatter had given his advice, but they are old enough to be closed for new comments.
Besides, it seems like a good idea to have a thread with the error code (0x80300024) in the subject line.

Windows 7 Install Error

I have received error code x80070017 during the installation of Windows 7 RC. This has occurred twice -- once while attempting to install into the fourth partition on my local HD, and the second time attempting to install to the third partition (lower cylinder position). No other explanation is provided.
A search of MSDN for the error code also failed.
HD partition map is:
Partition # Size Usage
1              60 GB WinXP
2              75 GB Vista
3              90 GB Windows 7
4              90 GB Data
Does anyone have any knowledge on this error to share?
Thanks, Jim

Hi,
I am getting CRC check failed error while installing Win XP with SP3..
In my case, I am downloading the ISO file on one computer and then transferring the whole ISO file in a portable storage device.
Then, I take that portable device to my home and copy the ISO file from there into my home computer to burn it to a CD-RW
Can the usage of two different computers, one for downloading the file and another for burning the file, could be the reason for this
Thanks,
Manik

Windows 7 Install error after Recovery

I recently had a HD crash on my SL410. I received a new hard drive and recovery disks from support. All appear to install OK until Windows 7 tries to start. I get to "Setting up for first use " and then get an error message that says the install did not work correctly and I need to start over. Requested new disks from support but had the same error. Any ideas on what is wrong?

performing clean windows installation may solve your issue.
also, when you see lenovo logo, press f8 , then select "las good configuration" or "fix start-up issue" from the menu.

HP ENVY dv6-7323cl Notebook PC Windows 10 install error (0xC1900101 - 0x20017)

The full error is: "The installation failed in the SAFE_OS phase with an error during BOOT operation. (0xC1900101 - 0x20017)" Curious if anyone was able to get their Envy dv6 upgraded from Win8.1 I have literally tried over 10 sulutions found on the web - Most of the solutions seem to come down to manufacturers updating BIOS. I know there was an update for the BIOS of this machine on 10/31/14 for ver. F25 and it has been installed, but if anyone has any ideas for this particular machine that has worked - Please share Thanks Edit* Things I have tried - Clean boot - Uninstalling AV - ISO from USB for Win10 - Windows Update to Win10 - Disabling Video,Sound, Biometrics - I am sure I am leaving a few out, but this gives an idea..

Hello
I was unable to find the drivers searching with your product and model number as well.
I was able to keep searching and found this link and it was under our business site support. This is the drivers for your unit series and you should be able to download the fingerprint reader drivers from the link.
Let me know if this helps.

890GXM-G65 - Windows 7 Install ERROR

It gets to the point where I select the partition to nstall on, and I receiv this error:
"Windows could not format a partition on Disk 0. Te error occured while preparing the partition selected for installation. Error code: 0x80070057

IS there a jumper or something I am missing on the Hard drive? I didn't see any.
Is their a non-raid Sata driver I need to load?

Is this 32bit or 64bit Windows 7?
Is the SATA controller set to IDE, AHCI or RAID in BIOS?
If set to AHCI/RAID, you need to click on 'Load Driver' at the disk selection screen, and load the relevant ATI SB RAID driver from here:

G710 Windows 7 Pro x64 Bluetooth + Wireless driver install errors (can't install)

Hi all,
I've recently just purchased the G710 i3 model as a birthday gift for my dad. It originally came with Windows 8 installed but my father prefers Windows 7 so I've installed this on a SSD (replacing the 1TB drive).
After updating Windows 7 Professional x64 with updates via ethernet I started to install all the drivers in the following order:
note: downloaded x64 drivers (for obvious reasons)
chipset
graphics (intel hd4600 first followed by nvidia gt 720m)
NIC LAN
Audio
Bluetooth and Wireless (won't work - see below for errors)
Touchpad
Card Reader
Webcam
Intel Management Engine (ME)
Intel Rapid Storage Technology Driver (RST)
BatteryCare (replacing the Lenovo Energy Management)
I've downloaded all from the Lenovo web site except up to date Chipset, ME and RST from Intel.
All drivers except for the Bluetooth and Wireless have installed fine. All Fn keys work except for the "Airplane Mode" (guessing due to the driver not being installed).
These are the following errors I get:
http://i618.photobucket.com/albums/tt265/aniceguy85/forums_keep/x64_error01.png~original
after clicking on OK ... I get the following
http://i618.photobucket.com/albums/tt265/aniceguy85/forums_keep/x64_error02.png~original
after clicking on OK ... there is another message displayed in the CMD window directly underneath the 1st one which is exactly the same text. Both windows then immediately close.
I tried the 32 bit version of the driver and got exactly the same result.
Can this be fixed so it can work? I'm hoping it's not just me.
Thanks for any help in advance, Pete

hi pete_agreatguy,
Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
The extraction maybe looking at a missing folder.
When you downloaded the driver
WLAN and Bluetooth Driver (Intel, Broadcom, Qualcomm) for 64-bit Windows
When you doubleclick it it should pop up a winodw where you hit next , agree then it shows a page where you can see a box with a browse button. can you share if you are getting that?

How to handle "/9.2.0/root.sh as root from another window" in silent instal

Hi,
I was successful to start a silent installation of Oracle9iR2 using a responsefile on my System RHEL 3. But the installation ends soon and a wrong successful install message:
Error :*** Alert: A configuration script needs to be run as root before installation can proceed. Please leave this window up, go run /opt/app/oracle/product/9.2.0/root.sh as root from another window, then come back here and click OK to continue. ***
The installation of Oracle9i Database was successful.
I use -ignorePatchConflicts for ignoring the patch conflicts. But How do I handle these issues. Where I have to run root.sh ... etc in teh Non Interactive Install.
I am scripting solution for non interactive install and manual intervention to run these root.sh shell scripts at different points of install is not a good idea as it wont help me automate the install.
Please let me know if anyone has solved this problem with -silent install.
Thanks in advance.
Senthil

Thats me (OP) again:
I tried setting:
SHOW_ROOTSH_CONFIRMATION=false in the response file. But still no help. The installation exits at run root.sh prompt point. How I can effectively deal with it in a script?

Skype Failed to install error 1603 after windows r...

Hey everyone! Thanks for any help in advanced.
Honestly after losing access to an old account and making a new account I've still been a long time fan of skype and love free 1 on 1 video calls. I'm really hoping this is an easy fix because honestly I've been looking at the skype community forums for the last hour and havn't been able to find a fix.
About 2 and a half hours ago I reduced the size of my only partiton on my 500 GB harddrive as much as I could. After doing this I reinstalled windows on the new 200ish GB partition. After installing and loading windows I coppied skype, smite, and steam from D:\Program Files to C:\Program Files (x86) and attempted to run skype. Skype opened and I signed in as usual but skype was having a really high CPU usage and kept reading/writing to some statistics.db file at several GB/s (Total IO was like 1.8GB/s, mostly write I think). The 13% cpu usage, although concerning as abnormally high, didnt really bog down performance too much. This high disk usage was really driving my mad as when it peaked my computer would almost stop responding and skype.exe would stop responding (although it resumed eventually). Skype in this state was unusable as any time the window was focused it almost crashed.
After this I decided to reinstall skype instead of using the backup I had. I went to uninstall skype and found that it didnt show up on the list to "uninstall a program" so I tried following as many steps I could at https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA10634/how-can-i-completely-uninstall-and-then-reinstall-skype-for...
I've also followed all the steps here except for installing an earlier version of skype as I'm not sure what version to use. http://community.skype.com/t5/Windows-desktop-client/Skype-Problems-Troubleshooting/td-p/52260
I force ended skype.exe then made backups of my skype user and pictures folders. I skipped step 3 since it wasn't in the list. I then did steps 4-6. While doing this I noticed it said there may be "up to 50" references to skype in the registry but I noticed there were a lot more. I'm not exactly sure how many there were but I counted up to 40 and when I noticed I was only half way through the registry I started spamming "delete" key "enter" (to confirm deletion) as fast as I could. I'd say there were at least 70 skypes in the registry. I'm not sure if this registry includes things from my other installation of windows or if it got **bleep**ed up because of they way I tried to install skype.
After doing all this with my registry I rechecked to make sure the skype program files and skype app data folders were deleted and then tried to reinstall skype. Downloading from http://www.skype.com/en/download-skype/skype-for-computer/ I tried to reinstall it and all I did was unchecked "run skype when windows starts" hit next unchecked the bing and skype click to call stuff, hit next. After it said installing for a while it said installation failed error 1603.
I tried following advice of several posts on the forums and other sites, including going through the registry again, using Microsofts FixIt for install/uninstalls, and trying to install skype from another administrator account. After looking at several posts, trying all these fixes, and looking into it myself I'm really not sure what to do.
I've looked at all of the following posts and tried all the fixes I saw.

http://www.msigeek.com/715/how-to-troubleshoot-the-error-1603-fatal-error-during-installation (This page gave me an "Error establishing database connection" page)
Not really sure what else to say or do, I've never really had to debug any programs or windows features before, and the only time I ever messed with the registry was a few windows installs before when I had to delete several instances of a self-reinstalling virus on my computer that spammed processes and lagged my computer.
Edit: After seeing this link I tried rerunning Microsoft's FixIt Install/Uninstall with the program ID from the folder name at %programdata%\Skype. I tried doing this and installing Skype from SkypeSetup_6.1.0.129.msi. Installation failed with some failed to read file totally forgot what it was. I then tried using the standard InstallSkypeFull.exe and it gave an actual error this time instead of the apparently "generic" error 1603 (see attached picture) After this installation failed I tried reinstalling from the 6.1.0.129.msi and it didn't say it failed. I'm about to try and open it.
Anddd opening Skype failed with the error message in the attached skype2 picture. I'm just going to close everything related to that except for this post and I'm going to close all my installers and debug stuff I have open and just wait for a reply. Currently I believe the system thinks skype is installed but I can't open it.
Solved!

I'm afraid that after all the manipulations your system is so messed up that a regular Skype installation is no longer possible.
Try this:
Download but not run this msi-installer for Skype 6.9.0.106 version:
http://download.skype.com/msi/SkypeSetup_6.9.0.106.msi
Create a folder on your computer where you want Skype application to be located. This folder can also be C:\Program Files (x86)\Skype\Phone\, but any other location will work too.
Now using the procedure described here:
http://community.skype.com/t5/Windows-desktop-client/How-to-update-Skype-without-using-any-Skype-ins...
extract Skype.exe file from the SkypeSetup_6.9.0.106.msi file and copy this Skype.exe file to the selected installation folder.
Right click on the Skype.exe file and select: Send to – Desktop (create shortcut). You will have to start Skype using this new shortcut.
P.S. There is a new link to the latest Lessmsi program:

Windows installer engine error when installing LV 8.2.1

Trying to install LabView 8.2.1 on a system and getting a "Window Installer Engine" error and the program quits. The software successfully installed on another system.
I have disabled all other programs and virus scanners. Any suggestions?
Thank you,

I think I may have fixed my own problem and will try and list the steps here in case anyone else runs into this.
The computer is networked and we are running network licensing. I have admin priviledges also on this machine.
We had to have the administrator for the network log on (with the LV installation CD in the drive). The option was selected to install LV 8.2.1 and then a window appeared notifiying that the system was installing Service Pack 2.
The admin then logged out and I logged back in to my local accout (not my network username and passwor) and the installed worked correctly (whew!).
There were some other password issues whick I don't think were related to this problem.

Disk Error after BC Windows XP Install on Snowleopard

So when I inserted the Windows XP disc in my mac after it told me to, my computer restarted and installed Windows XP on my newly partitioned 40GB Fat32 drive (it had asked to chnage to NTSF but I selected leave without changing. After installing Windows it said something like "Windows is installed, now restarting", now every I try to boot up with the Windows XP partition by holding down "option/alt" at start up, it goes to the black DOS like screen and says Disk Error, cannot load Windows, press any key to continue". Pressing any key does nothing, so I have to restart, and thus I am at another brick wall.
I downloaded some Boot Camp Snow Leopard Drivers and tried burning the .iso of it to a disc but that wasn't even working, not sure I even need to get to that step yet.
Help?

Got it, was supposed to reformat the drive within the windows installation. Turns out reading the .pdf manual can be helpful....

Hello, I was wondering if anyone can tell me how to fix my itunes. When I was trying to download the new 1114 version, a window popped up saying R6034 C runtime library was incorrectly loaded. Then another window said iTunes not installed properly

Hello,
I was wondering if anyone can tell me how to fix my iTunes. When I tried to update to the latest version (1114) a window popped up saying R6034 C runtime library incorrectly installed. Then another window popped up saying that iTunes was installed incorrectly Error 7 (windows error 1114). Hope you can help.

Solved the issue without using the trash . I tried to consolidate the library in LACIE, then clicked on any exclamation-mark song and tried to locate the file. Repeating those steps 3 or 4 times cleared it up. That was confirmed when I synced the entire library on a iPod Classic, and showed up no problems after syncing the Nano.
What went wrong was perhaps to fail to consolidate the library at first .

After Installing Acrobat X Standard, Cannot print from another Windows Program

I am having a strange problem. Once I installed Acrobat X Standard, another Windows based program stopped printing. It now comes up with a usp10.dll error, but most of the time it just crashes the program. Tried reinstalling the program and no luck. The error points at a Helvetica Font being the culprit that was installed with Acrobat. I am not sure how to clear this up.
Thanks

I have not removed it. One of the things I did try was going into the Registry and to FontSubstitutions and change the Helv to Helv,186 or something like that.

I bought a new laptop and used Windows Easy Transfer cable and moved all files from one computer to another. I installed iTunes and found my iTunes music Library. However, when I plug in my iPod it says it is already synced with another iTunes Library.

I bought a new laptop and used Windows Easy Transfer cable and moved all files from one computer to another. I installed iTunes and found my iTunes music Library. However, when I plug in my iPod it says it is already synced with another iTunes Library.
I don't see anything in Help that shows when you already have transfered all the files over. Why would it want to erase and sync when I already have all the music folder copied over? I didn't have an issue when I had another technician copy from one laptop to another. Home sharing is also on but not being recognized.

I suspect you only migrated the media folder instead of the complete working library. Either review the transfer process and copy over the entire iTunes folder from your old profile's music folder or see Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.
