Title: Ultrablade P35K Installing Windows fails
Post by: mackanz on October 18, 2013, 10:16:29 pm

The part when the files are being unpacked from the cd takes approximately 40 minutes. After the normal reboot, "Starting Windows 7" just hangs without change. This is a brand new PC that came without OS installed (our option). Installing the files from a USB stick went in a few minutes, but the thing hangs after the reboot anyway. This tells me that both the SSD (LiteOn) and the DVD rom is not working. Any help is appreciated.

Since it is brand new you should take it back. It does appear like the media is bad since just copying the installation files should not take 40 minutes. Especially not in that machine.
