Satellite A100-002 - Freezes during Windows 7 installation

Hi
I have 1. Satellite A100-002 and 2. big problem with installation of Windows 7.
2 yeras ago i tried to install Wista - but it froze during installation every time i tried. of course I tried different versions of Wista.
once i was successful with installation - but it keep freezing al the time - immediately after start.
so i gave up - and went back to XP
now I try to install Windows 7 - and again the same problems :(
can anybody tell me whats wrong??? - a really need it.
thanx a lot

it froze any time :(
during the instalation. after coping files, extracting, and during finishing of instalation it froze.
then after 10 restarts of notebook i finaly see the desktop of W7 - but only for 30 second - then it froze.
from that time it forze always after rebooting the NB ussualy whe it showed "starting windows"
sometimes starting of system gets further and it shows error mesage that teh instalation didnt finished correctly and that system need to reboote computer. then system reboot NB and then its it froze during "starting widows"
now i get another version of W7.
it looked good because i succefully finshed instalation - not whole because the system needed to restart NB to totaly finish instalation. so it rebooted NB and then during finishing of instalation it froze:(
from that time it impossible to start W7.
I instal W7 on HDD with formating of primar partition - to remove everything of previous system.
or what do you mean by "using SATA drivers or install it in Compatibility mode?"

The windows freezes DURING iTunes installation.

i have Sony Vaio VGN-N11M, 32Bits. i used to run windows XP and iTunes was working fine, after installing windows 7, i tried to install iTunes but it freezes during installation, and i have to reboot.
i Created a New User Account but the same problem happened, also Removed iTunes Plug-ins, checked the Conflicting Processes and Disconnected the computer from the Internet whilst installation but still the same thing keep happening.
i though it maybe because i had old slow RAM so i upgraded to 2GB RAM but still the same problem. i havent updated/backed up my phone for two month and the phone now is being funny too

I'm having the same issue trying to install a new out of the box copy of XP home.
It says "session3initializationfailed" I then have to reboot with the power button. It does it every time. The Windows is SP2.
Ditto for me. BootCamp fails to install XP Home SP2. I have a legal full version bought from Best Buy. Partition is created fine, but get this error when Windows is being loaded: SESSION3INITIALIZATIONFAILED.
I have no clue what to do, other than purchase Vista Home Edition and give it a go.

I am am re-installing due an issue on boot up trying to read the file System\Library\Caches\com.apple.kext.caches\Startup\Extensions.mkext. I get a Read error0x7. The disk utility from the start up reports that the disk appears to be healthy and all permsions are correct. Any one have any ideas what could be goign on? Can anyone tell me of any diagnostics I can run during the installation to see where the hang is?

Upgraded my macbook pro to mountain lion. But during windows installation, it refuses coz of FAT file system. Also is it possible to partition after windows installation???

I just upgraded my macbook pro to mountain lion. Now I want to install windows, but during installation using bootcamp, it says windows can't install on FAT partition. I couldn't change it to NTFS. Also how can I partition my hard disk after windows installation. Coz before windows installation, if I partition hard disk, it won't allow me to install windows saying startup disk can't be partitioned.......help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Now, I wish to upgrade from Mountain Lion 10.8.5 to latest version of OS X Yosemite, but I am in doubt and worry if after upgraded to Yosemite, can I still using my Windows XP where I installed now in Mountain Lion 10.8.5 BootCamp?
Yosemite does not allow a new installation of XP, but an existing XP installation is self-contained and will continue to work. Does your XP installation use a FAT partition? You may be better off using NTFS and then upgrading to Yosemite.
Will the Yosemite upgrade process delete my Windows XP partition or crash my current BootCamp? Can I still have an option to load OS X or Windows XP (press 'alt/option' key during boot up) after upgraded to Yosemite?
If you have made any re-sizing attempts to WXP partition Yosemite will cause problems, otherwise the Yosemite upgrade leaves XP untouched.
Are there any specific reasons to upgrade to Yosemite?

MacBook Pro Froze During Windows Installation

I am running Mavericks lastest update on mid-2012 MacBook Pro. I was installing Windows and following the directions provided in the Apple Support Communities.........the MacBook froze during the installation of Windows after I answered the prompt about the size of the partition........800 GhB for Mac and 200GhB for Windows 7. I now have a blank grey screen on the MacBook. I get the Apple boot-up when I press the Power up button but nothing happens.
How can I reboot and start the installation over?
Thanks very much.

Correction: I get the Apple boot-up sound when I press the Power button but nothing then happens other than the same grey screen.

AZ5771 freezes during Windows 10 installation at 70% and returns it to Windows 7

Tried the "update" method on Windows 10 for the Acer AZ5771 all-in one and it does fine until the 70% mark when it is installing the software and drivers. Then the screen goes black and just stays there (30 minutes one time). Figuring it is frozen, I punch the power button to do a hard power cycle. Upon restarting it tries to continue the installation, then reverts to restoring the old Win7 program. I've also tried to do a "fresh" install from a USB drive, but when prompted for the activation key the one stamped on the back it came with shows as "not valid." Anybody got any idea where to go from here? Acer's support page on this seems pretty confusing, unless I'm looing at the wrong one. Thanks in advance.

it's better if you sucessfully update to windows 10, since your windows 7 license will be switched to a windows 10 license. if you do a clean install, you can skip the activation key steps (windows 7-8.x key will not work) and install windows 10 without issue....apart activating, this will need a genuine windows 10 key.

Satellite L505D-S5983 freezing during start up

I will try to explain my issue as clearly and short as I can. I have this laptop just shy of a year, has about 2 weeks left on warranty, has had sporatic freeze up issues here and there that first appeared about 3-4 months ago, thought it was a battery issue, since it first happened when unplugging power supply - replaced battery, not the cause. I backed up all my files to seperate hard drive, burnt a set of recovery disks, proceeded to do a fresh install, during the process, the computer froze early, ok, so thought maybe files were corrupt on disc I burnt or was a hard drive issue, tried a known good replacement drive, still froze. Ordered set of recovery discs for the above laptop, during installation, froze during the first couple of minutes. I did eventually get the discs (3) installed under safe mode, but it has to continue in normal mode to complete the installation, but the same issue again, freezing up, about the third time the light bar crosses the screen. I know I may have no choice but to contact Toshiba, but I am open to all ideas I can try before I contact them. I also want to say that when it does freeze up , the only recourse I have is to hold down the power button to reboot.

I'm a little bit unclear. You tried putting a new HDD into the notebook, then booted to safe mode on that hard drive and tried to do a system restore?
EDIT: Regardless, lets check to see if it is an HDD Issue. Have you run a checkdisk? Boot into Safe Mode with command prompt and type:
"chkdsk /r C:", it will ask you if you want to schedule that to run at next bootup. Say yes and restart. It may take some time, especially if it is detecting issues.

What do I do when installing a mac security update freezes during the installation process?

Got an update notice the other day that a critical security update needed to be done right away. The update downloaded and then 90% through the installation it all froze. I can't do anything with the screen. Anyone out there have a suggestion?

As stevejobsfan0123 explained perfectly, Classic apps only works with Mac OS X 10.4 or older, so it's not possible to run it on your Mac, but there's another problem: MathCAD 15 isn't compatible with OS X, so you will have to buy the Windows version and install Windows on Boot Camp > http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp

Satellite Pro L40 freezes during recovery

I get the option nationallity and after clicking next nothing happens....
Even for hours. I wonder if its something i can do to access the machune? With no windows?

Hi
Why you dont try to repeat the recovery procedure again?
Take your Recovery disk and start the installation using the recovery disk.
If you notebook has been equipped with HDD recovery option then you could start if again.
Power up the unit, press F8 and then choose Repair my Computer.
Then you could follow with the installation choosing Toshiba HDD recovery.
Check it.

The installation freezes during completing installation part

Why does Satellite Pro P100 freeze under Windows 2000?

I have just installed Win 2000 with SP4 on my P100 and am finding that the laptop locks up for a second or so every 30 seconds.
By "lock up" I mean the mouse and keyboard stop working and have to wait for the freeze to end before I can continue.
Any ideas what could be causing this?

Hi
You said the CPU usage increases to 50%.
Well I think the notebook freezes for a while because any background processes use more CPU performance.
It would be very interesting to know this background process.
Dont worry; its not very difficult to find it out.
You will find the processes in the task manager.
Check it and post again

Satellite A100: Black screen until windows starts

Hello everybody,
my screen shows nothing until windows XP starts. No toshiba start-screen, no boot menue. The rest runs problemfree, no errors. I would like to have the normal boot with: "press del to enter setup" etc.
Thanks for helping

Hi
Something like press del to enter setup will not appear because usually at the beginning only the Toshiba splash screen should appear.
If you want to enter the BIOS you have to press the F2. By pressing the DEL you will not enter the BIOS. Its a notebook and not a desktop PC, buddy ;)
What you can do is to disable the Quiet Boot in the BIOS. Then diagnostic enabled and summary screen is displayed.

Windows vista issues on Satellite A100-036

Hi. I have a Toshiba satellite A100-036 laptop with windows vista home basic 32 bit and I have the following problems.
1.They replace me the hard disk at a store. I only have the Toshiba recovery dvd that I used to format the windows. They told me that I can't use it any more because the restore partition of the disk is lost. If I want to do a format again what do I have to do?
2. Every time I turn on the laptop the touchpad scrolling doesn't work. I go to control panel > mouse and it shows me this message: "Unable to connect to synaptics pointing device driver. If you have installed another PS/2 pointing device driver please unistall the synaptics driver by clicking on the yes button. You then need to reinstall your pointing device driver for your external device again. Do you want to unistall the synaptics driver now?" I click No and after that it works again and the synaptics pointing device icon appear again in the task bar. If I restart the laptop it doesn't work again and I have to do the same things.
3. Every time I turn on the laptop the bluetooth doesn't work and the bluetooth icon doesn't appear in the task bar. I have to go to device manager, unistall the driver, go to control panel > bluetooth local com and it works again. Every time I turn on the laptop I have to do this.
4. Every time I turn on the laptop the security center is turned off and I have to turn it on or the automatic updates are off and I have to turn them on.
5. Some times it doesn't install the automatic updates and it shows me the error code 8000FFFF.
Could anybody help me? Thanks.

If you have created the Toshiba Recovery Disk in the past, you can use it in connection with new HDD. The Toshiba Recovery Disk would set the notebook back to factory settings which mean that you will get installed Windows system, Toshiba drivers and additional software.

Go to Toshiba EU driver page and download the Synaptics touchpad driver. Install the touchpad driver and reboot the notebook. Usually this should fix your issue.

This is strange. Usually the BT should work if BT stack was installed properly. Please note that you have to enable the BT using FN key (FN+F8). This combination enables and disables the WLan too. So ensure you did it correctly.

Please check this: [Turn automatic updating on or off|http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/turn-automatic-updating-on-off#turn-automatic-updating-on-off=windows-vista]
> 5. Some times it doesn't install the automatic updates and it shows me the error code 8000FFFF.

Acrobat 9 Pro - Reinstalling freezes during "Preparing for Installation..."

Hi,
I'm using an Apple MacBook Pro with Mac OS X 10.6.3 (Snow Leopard).
I have installed Adobe Creative Suite 3 Web Premium and Adobe Creative Suite 4 Design Premium.
As written in my other post (http://forums.adobe.com/thread/650516?tstart=0), I am unable to find a solution to reinstall my Adobe printer driver.
That's why I thought I might be able to just reinstall Acrobat 9 Pro completely.
However, when trying this, the installation freezes during the "Preparing for Installation..." screen.
I also tried installing in Safe Mode but without success.
I found some posts regarding this but mostly the solution is to uninstall CS4 completely and to reinstall it again from scratch. But of course I would like to fix the problem without the need to reinstall everything.
Any help is much appreciated!
Thanks!
Wolfgang

Hi Larry,
thanks for your message!
I found that out later as well, see http://forums.adobe.com/message/2857742#2857742 .
However, the problem I tried to describe in this post, is that I cannot reinstall Acrobat as it just freezes during the Installation.
Do you know any work-around for that?
Thanks,
Wolfgang
