forjonny Posted May 27, 2008 Posted May 27, 2008 On a Dell Latitude 1.6, 256 ram, 30 gig. Format went Ok but stalls at 34 minutes at Installing Devices.. Tried restarting, Tried XP Pro first then tried to reformat with XP Home and it still sticks at 34 minutes.What's the trick? Been all over Google to seek answers but stick stuck at 35 min. Reformatted 5 times. Used 5 different hard drives, switched out ram three times, cleaned the CD, Cleaned the dvd drive, restarted many, many times and read about 20 discussions on this. Have been to the Microsoft link 7 times, don't give me that again.This is a Dell Laptop Inspiron with a 1.6 Pentium M, 256 and 30Gb. The XP is the Dell OEM that I used about 8 months ago to do the same installation and it went fine.What gives? Only a couple of people on the Internet seem to be able to fix this problem and they were desktops.
forjonny Posted May 27, 2008 Author Posted May 27, 2008 I went thru that and deleted the file that I found which was called syssetup.inf. This was the only .inf file listed at the bottom of about 20 lines of text.Didn't work
