Lion bootcamp win7 freeze during install

Hi,
Been looking all around and cant find a resolution.
Updated lion on my macbookpro, started bootcamp assistant and made a 50gb partition.
Then started windoes install of win7 ultimate 32bit.
The last step after the first reboot it freezes at completing installation. I let it sit all night and in the morning, its still sitting there.
I re-tried 4 times now and still doing the same. I also tried with another win7 enterprise and did the same.
Why is this not working? Im doing all as stated in the docs

Can anyone tell me why this is not working?
Has anyone been able to bootcamp with windows 7 on osx lion?
Please i need your help

I wish I fully understood your post, but perhaps you should try re-downloading. Are you trying to download the 10.7.3 update? If so, then try downloading OS X Lion Update 10.7.3 (Client Combo).

WHAT CAUSES FOR AN APPLICATION TO FREEZE DURING INSTALL?

What causes for an application to freeze during install? and how do I fix it

helloWorld pretty much said it all.
When I'm looking for problems like that nothing beats a good trace file. Also don't dismiss the idea of programmer stupidity (of the one that developed the app), I've ran across code where exceptions where caught and nothing done about it, just let thing run merrily along again. The cause is usually farther back in the trace than the point it hangs or appears to start having problems.

Mountain lion crashes my computer during install.

Help! I've got a solid backup, but during install, Mountain Lion threw my computer into a dead stop during the BSD init process.
Anyone else having this problem? I'm downloading the ML installer to try and boot from USB, but at this point I'm at a bit of an impass. If this doesn't work, I don't either tomorrow morning.
Besides calling me an idiot, any suggestions on getting back to running order?
Thanks,
JS

Restore your solid backup.

FIX FOR:computer freezes during install of Leopard on a G4 MDD w/ ATI x800!

I had problems with freezing during installation of Tiger & Leopard on my G4 MDD. It took some trouble shooting, but when I installed Tiger I found out that the freeze was from the video card I had installed, an ATI x800 xt 256mb AGP video card. I do not know why this card freezes the installation process, but I found a way to get the installation to complete without freezing. I took an old ATI PCI video card, installed it in an empty PCI slot, connected monitor to PCI card, and then installed Tiger with no problems. After install I hooked the monitor back up to the AGP ATI card and it worked great. So when my G4 froze with the Leopard installation I did the same thing, switched to an old PCI video card and Leopard installed with no problems whatsoever, then I switched back to AGP card after install. I hope this helps someone.

Sparc 5 freezes during install

As the subject says I have a sparc 5 that freezes
during an interactive install of Solaris 8 4/01.
It is inconsistent, and the only way to unhang the machine
is power off (does not respond to stop-a).
Is there a way to tell what is going on?
Thanks,
A. J.

Thanks...
Problem solved... it was a SIMM that wasn't seated properly.
The strange thing is, that I did test the memory using POST and also doing test-memory at the PROM level and those did not indicate any problem (on a hunch I reseated the memory...).

Freeze during install of update 10.5.1

My macbook will freeze upon the restart of trying to install update 10.5.1
I download the update using system software updater and when it asks for restart... I do it. The machine then starts up and begins the install.
The problem is it will freeze at 0-1% of configuring the install. I've installed all other updates. This is the only one to do this.
I can easily re-install the mac with a fresh leapard however I was hoping for a solution so I don't have to reinstall bootcamp and all other apps for both mac and windows.
btw... my leapard was an update from tiger. I do run bootcamp with winxp.
thanks for any help.

Have you tried just manually downloading the update to see if that works?

Freezing during install ph

Heya guys. I've got an issue with my creative soundblaster Audigy 2 ZS, specifically the install program. The first part makes it to 97%, then Windows picks it up. The installation then literally freezes, and I am forced to control alt delete out. This also occurs when trying to CZapxx the drivers in. OS is Windows 98 SE (Not that it should matter, it was running fine prior to my reformat)

I suppose you're right. And no I didn't read an anouncement before posting, I just jumped right in, sorries... I just have never seen soooo many problems with a product before that don't seem to get answered and having seen questions answered by moderators I ass-umed they would try to answer all.When it comes to diagnostics I'm a dumb as a banana sandwich and could have used some help. Now I have a product I can no longer use that used to work great before a re-format and I've tried everything recommended in the database. Jeez, talk about frustration...
Ya the mods will try to help as much as they can. Hmm.... have you try what I suggested that is during the installation, if it hangs then ctrl-alt-del and then close the application that's showing not responding? Also, you can try updating your installshield wizard which I found to be helpful too.

Boot Camp 3.51 freezes during install

Hardware: MacBookPro9.1 mid 2012, 8GB Ram. 1TB brand new Samsung EVO 850 SSD (TRIM enabled),
Software: Boot Camp Asst 3.51, Mac OS 10.9.5 (fresh install when the SSD was set up).
1) Boot into BCA, click all the boxes (Create Install Disc, D/L latest support software, Partition/Install Win7 64bit)
2) Feed it the Win7 64Bit DVD, makes the ISO,
3) Give it an 8GB USB flash drive, software loaded
4) Software downloaded etc.
5) MBP reboots to grey screen - no Apple, no Windows logo, no nothing. Process stops, nothing happens.
6) Disc Utility run, permissions repaired, disc verified OK.
7) Flash drive re-formatted, BootCamp partition erased, process repeated.
8) Same result.
Thoughts? Suggestions?
Thanks,
Marco

Yes, BCA 5.1.2 actually. Not sure where I got the version number listed above.
All USB peripherals disconnected except for the memory stick w/the Windows ISO etc on it.
** Found out the "EyeFi Helper" had installed its software on the USB stick after it was formatted. This is a bug in the EyeFi helper software that I have reported but still has not been fixed.
Disabled the EyeFi software, started all over again.
BCA formatted partition with FAT, but I was able to re-format in the Windows installer to complete Windows installation. Got Windows booted and then ran Windows Update for Service Pack 1 etc. and selected reboot and....
Back to the blank, grey screen on rebooting into Windows. No Apple Icon, no Windows icon, no activity.

ITunes 7.0.1.8 freezes during install

I downloaded the new iTunes 7 and went to install the same way i have with the last few updates. I uninstalled old iTunes and QuickTime and turned off my virus scans and firewall. I ran iTunesSetup that i downloaded from the Apple site using Mozilla Firefox. Everytime the installation freezes at the point Status: Registering modules with like 2 bubbles left. I tried restarting my computer and the same thing happened again. Tips to fix this would be appreciated. QuickTime appears to have been installling fine. Oh and only the installation froze i could still run other processes. In fact right now as I am typing this the updater is frozen in the background.

Everytime the installation freezes at the point Status: Registering modules
by any chance, do you have SpyCatcher antispyware software installed on your PC?
if so, try uninstalling SpyCatcher prior to the itunes install. does the itunes install get past the registering modules point then?
if you get the itunes install to go through, you can reinstall SpyCatcher.

Solaris 10 freezes during install

Hello, all.
I'm trying to install Solaris 10 on my home PC.
Specs:
1.3GHz Athlon
20GB HD
512MB RAM
ATI Radeon 9600 PRO
When I do an install - regardless of interactive/interactive text console/interactive text desktop, it freezes.
I see the message "Use of this blah blah blah" and then it just sits there. I let it sit for a while, but I can't see it doing anything.
I know it's not much to go on...
Help?

I have noticed the same behabiour as it seems several other people.
I managed to install succesfully only on one PC with intel PIII 450Mhz by replacing the original graphic card.
I tried to install in several other intel based PCs without success.
I also have a Dell 1850 and a Dell 2850. When booting from the CD/DVD the installation freezes in the begining with the message
"Running Configuration Assistant" and then nothing happens (at least for >10 hours)
If I start with the disk it hangs with the message "Loading driver ata.bef".
Using the disk procedure and giving the sytem a lot of time about 7-8 hours the installation procedure proceeds but it hangs at 99% ( I waited for 20 hours then I stoped the process)
It is really sad that SUN is not able to produce an easy to install product as FreeBSD or Fedora, CentOS, Suse which by the way all of them install on 1850 and 2850 without any problem.

10.4.7 update freezes during install

I'm trying to update a G4 iMac. It had previously crashed hard during the install, so I had to archive and reinstall the OS from the original disks. I ran the disk verify and repair. Now, it downloads the combo update, but it never gets past "Preparing for Installation." No other programs are running during the install. Is there more that I can and should do?
Thanks for any help.

Probably a bad download. Dump it and download another. If that doesn't work, then you should run the Apple Hardware Test program to rule out any hardware problems.

Adobe Application Manager freezes during install

Hi all,
I'm trying to install the Adobe Application Manager on my Mac Book Pro with OS X 10.82. After double clicking on the AdobeApplicationManager.app the progress window appears, but after a few seconds it freezes. :-( I have to force quit the installer. Any ideas?
Thanks!
Klaus from Germany

If you have Creative Suite 5.1 installed then a version of Adobe Application Manager should be present in your Applications/Utilities folder. Please try uninstalling Creative Suite from the Applications/Utitlies/Adobe Installers folder. Once it is uninstalled you can safely remove the Adobe Application Manager folder and then try reinstalling again from http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4774.

Indesign 5.5 freezes during install

My install disc prompts me to start .setup and then freezes
on "Initializing Installer". Did it 5 times at the same place.
Ran a Adobe Support Advisor... and it found no problems.
Just got a brand new computer running Windows 7 Pro.
I was able to load up my old Adobe CS4 Web Premium with no problems.
Just purchased InDesign CS 5.5 and assumed it would load easily on Windows latest OS.
Any suggestions would be great.... thanks.
Stephan

Great! You are welcome!
I'm glad it worked for you!
But, on the other hand, this is not supposed to happen.
Did you had other software installed before you tried to install InDesign CS5.5?
Maybe antivirus software, or something similar? Or maybe had Firefox opened?
Personally, I disable UAC right after install.
I just don't like it poping out and giving me warnings and advices
All the best.
