Setting up Windows is so easy do especially for latest Windows (Windows Vista, Windows 7) or even for old Windows XP but if you encountered the problem , “ In the middle of setting up Windows stop the process and hang up your PC or stop the setup and shown some error message, follow the rest of my post to know the possible solutions for this scenario.

Here some scenarios : You can format the hard drive but after the format procedure stop in the middle of setting up and you slave the hard drive to other PC  and scan the hard drive if their is bad sector  but their is no damage or problem and everything works fine. But still the problem is there.

SOLUTION:

Hardware Troubleshooting for Old PC

• Check your CD Windows Installer , maybe your Windows installer is damaged. So, I suggest try to use other CD Windows  installer
• Try to use other optical drive, it is possible that your optical drive is not reading well that why the installation stop in the middle of setting up or shown some errors message while in the middle of setting up.
• Replace the Memory Ram, possible that your Memory RAM are near to damage.
• Change your power supply, possible that the supply can’t support the whole CPU. I used that solution for so many times.
• Reassemble and clean the whole CPU, possible that your CPU is grounded because of dirt, rust or loose connection.

Software Troubleshooting for both Old and New PC

• Slave you hard drive to other computer and delete the partition . After that procedure,  try to setup again your Operating System (Windows XP, VISTA, Windows 7) to the original computer. This solution is proven and I used this procedure for most branded computer and assemble computer.
