elohelomg Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 So, i recently got a dell computer (the ones where its a monitor and computer in one [xps]), and, it was taking forever to boot up. So, i decided to install windows 7, but during the install, i get different errors.0x08 some with 0xc00005. i have a windows 7 install from a usb, and im not sure if that is whats causing the problem.

Ehsan Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 Did you check it by a bootable DVD of Win7? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HX1 Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 You are going to have to have dell drivers... dell has many little quirks about it.. to insure that it is working properly.. and a bunch of other stuff that only leads us to actually makes us think more of raking in money and cornering there own computer market.. LOLIf you make it through the installation I would consult the site for the driver packages for your system if it is available for Windows 7... If its newer you are probably more likely.. BUT.. you never know... It may not be the best bet... to upgrade without Dell Support... If installation fails you can bet that it has something to do with it...IF you getting these errors after the installation check the Event Viewer and do some research to see if yo can track it down.. it may even straighten out after updating through Microsoft Update...

Sl@pSh0ck™ Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 I suggest you do a fresh install from a dvd ... format your hard disk (backup anything important first) and install 7 from a dvd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elohelomg Posted January 9, 2011 Author Share Posted January 9, 2011 i have a windows 7 install from a usb, and im not sure if that is whats causing the problem.Installing Windows Se7en through an USB fails to exhibit 'Advanced options' during the re-format - the people are rightly suggesting you take the bootable DVD route. :)The usb was just fine, turns out, it was a ram stick gone bad.took the particular one out, and BAM. Just mini tip, you guys can check out multibootusb, it allows you to put a copy of windows 7, and a ton of other useful boot cd's on a usb. pretty neat.

olmp Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 One thing you could do :Run the ubuntu live cd and use the disk test application to check the usb key you're using for your win7 "boot".Might help making sure the usb key is fine ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
