Windows 7 RC1 experiences
Figured I'd share mine - it won't install on my machine. Probably doesn't like my RAID or something. It almost completes but either hard locks (usually hard locks) or crash dumps at the exact same point in the install process - during the finalizing portion after everything is installed.
Just to be sure, I went through and disabled everything up to and including the Ethernet in the BIOS, unplugged all USB devices, and even pulled out my TV card and everything else I have stuffed into this thing. Only things left were 3 optical drives (CD burner, DVD_ROM, and Blu-Ray burner), 3 hard drives (2 in RAID 0), one 4870 vid card, and of course MB/CPU. Still crashes during install. I install to the non-RAID drive too so as not to have that screw up anything - no dice still. Probably that the RAID exists is the problem. I'd say it is definitely not ready for prime time yet. -S |
