Impossible to install on my system. HELP!

I tried installing the January Technical Preview via the setup program AND, when it failed, I burned and tried to use the ISO disc. In both cases the result was the same. It would begin the process and after an hour when it appeared all was going well I
received a box that said the Technical Preview was unable to install on my system. It then reverts back to Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit version.  The program never reached the point where I could enter the product key. 
My rig is an Asus Motherboard, NVIDIA 760 video card, ASUS CD/BD internal writer, 4TB Western Digital Drive (80% free space), 12GB Memory.
I am an experienced computer user, having built computers since the 286 and have used Windows since version 3.1.  This has me stumped.

Hi Andy,
When you failed to install Windows 10 using the setup file, what the error messages it popped out?
If possible, could you please share a screenshot with us?
If this is the first time you trying to install Windows 10 with your computer, I suggest you check this article first:
System requirements
Further, you may try to use Windows 8.1 upgrade Assistant and check the situation. Usually if your PC can run
Windows 8.1, you’re good to go with Windows 10.

    Thank you for your answer.
    And...Yes, i did : i inserted the install disc and started up holding the C key. Many time. But each time, the logo of install disc appeared during ten minutes and then, during the installation, he disappeared suddenly with no reason. And in  the same time the computer turn off.
    The beginning of the storry : my son made long time ago (a year) the partition between Mac and Windows. Everything was fine.
    Recently, He decided to give more memory space to windows.
    He could do that directly (perhaps, was there a way but he did'nt know it)
    For this reason, he decided to desinstall Windows in a first step before reinstalling it.
    But before doing this, he decided to re install all the system, like for cleaning his computer...and then, since, it's a big mess.
    You know everythin now.
    Could you help us ?
    Thanks by advance.

    I have an HP Officejet Pro 7580 similar to the 8600 you have and after upgrading to Mountain Lion it wouldn't work. HP support site said download updates for Mountain Lion from App Store not their site so I went to software update but there were NO UPDATES FOR 10.8.  Tried a million things and could not get printer to work.  So I restored back to Lion figuring at least printer worked then only now I can't get it to work with old settings either. I am sick to death of claims by Apple and peripheral manufacturers that everything is compatible all you have to do is get updates well in this case THERE ARE NONE TO BE GOT and I don't have time to **** about trying to find 'work arounds'.  There shouldnt be a need for work-arounds. Unless the updates are ready DONT release the new OS.  You shouldn't have to be an IT tech to make basic things like printing work.  I see also the HP 8600 is even sold by appstore so there is no reason why it shouldn't work with minimum fuss. 

  • Need help: Cannot find Microsoft Word installed on your system.

    I am having issues trying to generate a pdf from a robohelp 7 html project.  Whenever I try to generate a pdf I get the error "Cannot find Microsoft Word installed on your system."
    I have tried to uninstall both Office (2003) and robohelp, re-installing office first and then robohelp, but it doesn't help.  Can anyone shed some light on this issue?

    Colum,
    Thanks for the reply, but it's Microsoft Office, not Open Office.
    I have read many threads here and tried most of the suggestions, up to and including:
    Uninstall/Reinstall of Office and RH 7
    Adjusting Macro security
    comparing registry entries
    There are others but I can't think of them all right now.  Point being, nothing has worked thus far.  I must admit this is fairly frustrating but I haven't given up yet.  Any more suggestions are welcome, and I will review the link you gave me just to make sure I cover all my bases.

  • Error Message= x Cannot find the HTML help browser installed on your system.

    Help! I cannot seem to find the solution for the error message I get when trying to generate a layout in Microsoft HTMl Help (Primary Layout). I am using the trial version, but it didn't seem to be an issue for anyone else in my class that was also using the trial version.
    The error message states, "Cannot find the HTML help browser installed on your system."
    Thank you!

    Sounds like a problem with the installation of RoboHelp on those machines. When you install RoboHelp, it installs the necessary files to view a CHM.

  • I have photoshop elements 11 installed on my desktop pc, I want to install it on my laptop as well, I read that it can be installed on two systems, but I get a message taht the redemption code has been used by another ID, please help

    I have photoshop elements 11 installed on my desktop pc, I want to install it on my laptop as well, I read that it can be installed on two systems, but I get a message taht the redemption code has been used by another ID, please help

    A redemption code can only be redeemed once.  It is used to acquire a serial number. The serial number is what you need to activate the installed software.  If you did not keep the serial number when you first installed, you might still be able to find it in your Adobe account online if you registered the software.

  • I want to install CyberLink PowerDirector on my Macbook Pro but I need Windows software operating system to be install ? I need help!

    I  downloaded PowwerDirector 12 trial and when I try to open it,  I got a message that "CyberLink PowerDirector was not compatible to Mac". After some inquiries, I found that I need Winows software operating system to be install in Mac! Can sombody help me?

    For Windows on a Mac you'd have to own a Windows retail system installer with keycode, and use BootCamp utility in the Mac OS X to set up a partition on the computer hard disk drive (issues? if you have Apple Fusion Drive where a SSD + HDD are automatically co-joined) and then install the Windows system there.
    Or get & use Parallels, or VMFusion software and use it along with Windows to run applications written for a Windows OS. And would need to have a large internal hard disk drive with plenty of room since the space for Windows takes away space for Mac OS X and its applications to run; and also you'd need plenty of chip RAM installed to run this other System plus software... and for Windows, its own anti-virual software not needed at all in a Mac.
    Not sure about this, http://www.wondershare.com/video-editor/mac/ suggests in their advert to be something to use if you can't use the cyberlink product.
    Or don't want to buy the upscale or pro Apple image software that does a fine job at a cost. I'd try & avoid running Windows in a Mac even though it can run three or more different OS, including linux/unix builds.
    Never heard of either one: wondershare or cyberlink powerdirector.
    (the latter looked 'more pro' for windows)
    {But check for any hint of some odd effects before you get and install any software from a marginal or unknown source, since adware can follow, and really odd things can start to happen then, like search engine redirects.}
    Anyway, helpful information about your computer and its current configuration, OS X version, RAM installed, hard disk drive specs (free vs used capacity) are numbers that can make a difference going into a new thing. Even Mavericks alone is not an upgrade, often that requires a bunch of extra chip RAM capacity.
    Not sure if this helps, another may offer more direct ideas...
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • HELP - Clueless BWA hardware partner - can't install pre-sales system

    Hi dear BWA fellows,
    am posting this on behalf of Hewlett-Packard ... we're trying to pilot BWA and BO Explorer and to my surprise we did not yet fully pass away just yet when hearing about the price tag.
    But we just might - if the mandated hardware "partner" for the proprietary hardware infrastructure doesn't manage to install a small trial environment within the next few weeks ...
    Rescue us from flatlining in the emergency room of BI marketing nirvana ... please assist HP Asia-Pacific to simply install a base BW image onto one or two HP blades ...
    Thanks in advance (also on behalf of SAP who are not allowed to install the trial system because of the installation guide they wrote).

    Hi!
    What you did is correct,
    To install odbc you just have to copy the files inside instantclient-odbc-windows.x64-11.2.0.3.0.zip to C:\OracleClient64 as you already did.
    When you run odbc_install.exe it popup a cmd prompt for very short period of time. It´s fine.
    What it does is to create the values you saw in the registry, an thats why if you run it a second time it said that already exist. With that, you have installed odbc, now you can test it following this link:

  • Impossible to install iTunes

    Hello,
    I have a problem with the installation of Itunes on my XP pro SP3.
    When I launch the install, a few moment later I have this message:
    "Impossible to open this key HKEYLOCALMACHINE\SOFTWARE\Appla Computer,Inc.\QuickTime\Installed Files\QTPlugin.ocx. Check that you have the corrects rights for that key or contact your technical support"
    I tried to install with administrator session and in the safe mode but always the same message.
    For information QuickTime is installed on my computer but it is impossible to uninstall it.
    Please help me because I have buyed an iPhone and I want to synchronize it with iTunes.
    Excuse me for my bad english.
    Thank you.
    Eavan.

    "Impossible to open this key HKEYLOCALMACHINE\SOFTWARE\Appla Computer,Inc.\QuickTime\Installed Files\QTPlugin.ocx. Check that you have the corrects rights for that key or contact your technical support"
    Okay. We'd better check your permissions on that registry key, eavan.
    Log in to one of your Administrative accounts. Go "Start > Run", type regedit and hit enter.
    Expand HKEYLOCALMACHINE
    Expand SOFTWARE
    Expand Apple Computer, Inc
    Expand QuickTime
    Expand Installed Files
    Right-click on QuickTime.ocx and select "Permissions". Do your Administrative accounts have full permissions on that key?

  • Installing Multiple Operating Systems with grub and Arch Linux

    NOTE: Please keep in mind that there are many different ways to achieve this same result using various loop and ramdisk methods, read this with a separate window to jot down your comments and suggestions... this is ongoing for me so any help would be appreciated!
    Read the full article at Install Multiple Os without cds
    This is my first post and I plan on making this topic an official HOWTO with www.tldp.org.
    I have been into the computer security scene since 1990, but I realized that I had very little experience with the various LInux, Unix, and alternative Operating systems out there.
    I have a CD-RW drive but being a struggling computer security researcher I had no money for blank cd-recordables.  What follows is how I managed to install various operating systems on my computer (1 hard drive) without having to burn to a CD the ISO and then boot from that.
    I first partitioned my 120GB harddrive into 10 partitions, the 2nd partition is a small swap and the last partition is extra large because it holds all the ISO images..
    I then wrote a small shell script to automatically download (I love wget!)  the following.
    OpenBSD
    IpCOP
    Libranet
    Arch-Linux
    Fire
    Local Area Security
    Packet Master
    Devil-Linux
    FreeBSD
    Knoppix
    Helix
    Gentoo
    Yoper-Linux
    NetBSD
    RedHat
    Slackware
    The script also downloaded Installation manuals and md5 checksums.. (let me know if I should post... its pretty unsophisticated
    I installed Slackware (personal favorite) on hda1 using my last blank CD-R, note that I do not have a separate boot partitino.  (Should I?).  I also installed grub on the MBR.  I love grub, if you read through the man pages and all info you can find about grub, you can learn a whole lot.  Grub has much more features and capability than lilo, even though lilo comes installed by default with slack.
    I organize my kernel situation as follows...  In my /boot directory, I mkdir KERNEL, CONFIG, MAP, INITRD and that is a good way for me to keep my kernels and everything organized..  Another good way is a separate dir for each new kernel. 
    Since Arch-Linux is a solid distro, I'll use that as a first example.
    Here is the Arch-Linux section of my shell script
    goge Arch-Linux
    $w http://puzzle.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/archlinux/arch-0.6.iso
    $w http://unc.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/archlinux/arch-0.6.md5sum
    $w http://www.archlinux.org/docs/en/guide/install/arch-install-guide.html
    md55
    cat arch-0.6.md5sum
    md5sum arch-0.6.iso
    md55
    The first thing to do is to mount the downloaded ISO image so we can use it as if it were an actual CD.
    mount -t iso9660 -o ro,loop=/dev/loop0 cdimage /mnt/cdrom
    Where cdimage= the ISO image.   EX. /usr/local/src/ISO/Linux/Arch-Linux/arch-0.6.iso
    This mounts the iso as /mnt/cdrom.
    Next you need to copy /mnt/cdrom to a separate partition for the booting process.  So mkfs.ext2 /dev/hda9.  ( I prefer reiserfs or even XFS to ext but if you use something other than ext2 you could run into some problems because some of the installation kernels and initrds don't include support for reiserfs and so can't recognize the files.  Although you could use mkinitrd to create a new initrd with reiserfs support, that might be pushin it IMO...   I use the 9th partition consistently for this.  I know there is a "right" way to copy the /mnt/cdrom files so everything stays the way it is supposed too, using tar or cpio, but I'm lazy so I just do cp -rp.   
    (What is the tar or cpio commands to copy with correct permissions etc??)
    So you mount the 9th partition as whatever, say /mnt/hd and then copy the files.  Now what?
    Now edit your /boot/grub/menu.lst file to include the specific options to boot arch-linux installation. 
    A good idea is to find the isolinux.cfg file somewhere on the distro cd, this will tell you what to include in the menu.lst.
    Here is the section in my menu.lst
    title Arch Install
    root (hd0,8)
    kernel /isolinux/vmlinuz load_ramdisk=1 prompt_ramdisk=0 root=/dev/rd/0
    initrd=/isolinux/initrd.img
    This should be self-explanatory.  The root (hd0,8) is pointing to partition 9.  So the rest of the commands start from partition 9. 
    When you experience problems, remember you can always edit the grub boot options by typing 'e' and then edit the section.  Also, a good idea is to include several variations in your menu.lst so you can easily try other ways to boot efficiently.  And, remember to read up on all the installation guides that come with your distro, specifically, hard-disk installs. 
    There are special cases, Gentoo, has a semi-new compressed filesystem called squashfs.  BTW, this is AWESOME, so check it out.  It has to be compiled into the kernel, so some work is in order, but use this recompile to optimize your kernel.  You can get the squashfs patch for almost any kernel.  I use the latest stable 2.6 kernel.  Squashfs is incredible and although I don't think you need it to install from ISO, you do need it to expand the livecd.squashfs filesystem that comes with the cd.
    Heres a sample Gentoo section from my menu.lst
    title Gentoo Install
    root (hd0,8)
    kernel /isolinux/gentoo root=/dev/ram0
    initrd=/isolinux/gentoo.igz init=/linuxrc acpi=off looptype=squashfs loop=/livecd.squashfs cdroot vga=791 splash=silent
    A nother' tip is the shell that is provided if you experience problems, typically busybox or ash.  The key tools to get you going from here is mount and chroot.  Sometimes you will need to manually create a simulated file system and then chroot into it.  For instance, you might have to create boot, etc, bin, directories on the target partition. 
    I generally install each OS onto the next partition (careful of the logical partition) and add it to my menu.lst after install.  A good idea is after installation, copy the kernel and initrd(if there is one) to the slackware(or whatever) boot partition on hda1.  I copy kernels to /boot/KERNEL/ and initrd's to /boot/INITRD, then menu.lst is more organized...
    You then need to add an updated section to your menu.lst (just comment out the install section for later)
    Here is the finished arch-linux section from menu.lst
    title Arch Linux 6
    root (hd0,2)
    kernel /boot/vmlinuz26 ro root=/dev/hdc3
    This doesn't use my convenient boot/KERNEL/vmlinuz26 as you can tell by setting the root to partition 3.
    ***NOTE: Make a backup of MBR using dd and save to floppy, also backup the partition table to floppy, using cfdisk or parted.  And boot disks (I use 1 with grub, and 1 with slack, and tomsbootdisk) will invariably come in handy.  Tomsbootdisk is recommended, and make the grub boot disk when you install grub.  install to floppy.
    ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
    The final result after some fun experimenting, is when I boot, I have a cool grub boot screen come up with the option to boot into whatever OS I want, this is handy for multiple reasons.  One good thing to do after this is to port scan and vuln scan each OS, after you update of course.  Write this stuff down and you will know the weaknesses/strengths of the various OS's. 
    I can boot a custom Firewall, snort, or multiple honeypots using this procedure, as well as a graphical kde environment with a kernel optimized for graphics and my processor/architecture, or an environment devoted to forensics or even an environment suitable for programming.
    ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
    P.S. Some of the cooler alternative operating systems are BeOS 5, EOS, ER_OS, V2_OS, and my personal favorite Menuet.  Menuet is 100% assembly graphical operating system that fits on a floppy.  Its f'in money!
    This should be a good enough example to get you started, this kind of thing should be learned and not just copied... Knowing how to do this stuff could prove to be exceptionally useful...
