Expanding files slow

These options were available on my BIOS. I make no claims that any or all of these are necessary to eliminate this problem of hanging upon Expanding Windows Files; I simply observe that after days of trying different things, when I finally made all these changes in BIOS, it worked!

Please help. Wednesday, May 13, AM. I was having the same issue as the original above I originally was getting the 0xce9 error when Windows 7 bit was trying to load the installer, which lead me down the path of burning at a lower speed.

That worked! It prompted to retry the disc, so I popped it back in and it screamed through the install. Hope this helps someone else! Wednesday, October 28, PM. Ford 2. I had the same issue trying to install Vista and Win 7.

Tried everything in all of the forums that I checked. I finally disabled Intel SpeedStep in my bios and Win 7 installed like clock-work. This is some type of energy saving something for the cpu. I think AMD calls it hyper transport. Try disabling it for the install. Hope this works for you. Wednesday, January 6, PM. Guys, I did it!! I've managed to install windows 7 64bits on my PC.

The thing is: I've heard that maybe the problem was related to HyperTransport. It worked as a charm. Of course, after the installation completed I've changed both options to Auto again. Report back if this works. Friday, May 15, PM. It only took a few minutes to expand windows files.

I guess dual layer is key for some reason. Saturday, October 3, PM. I've been having the same issue as far as the hanging. I have 2 nearly identical PC's. One of the machines installed with no problems. After returning home from work and looking at the various results here I decided to start going through some of the less time consuming walk-throughs. First focusing on the media. Even when I started with that media I had to burn copies before I got 2 discs to even be recognized at startup.

The Memorex ones worked on 2 machines, but even the exact disc I used for those 2 would not work in the other one. So I found another stack I have of disc verbatim I believe, they are the type with inkjet tops and no identifier and burned that one with nero verifying data instead of the win 7 burning tool.

I replaced the disc and voila, installed just fine. Hope this helps someone! Saturday, October 24, AM. I tried disabling the floppy drive, and also changed the HyperTransport settings as suggested, but that did not solve my problem. So, if all else fails I would suggest using a different drive if available to help get it installed.

Was trying to install Win 7 pro from XP. The thing that worked for me was disabling webroot spyware and antivirus. The installation flew in no time! Thursday, February 18, PM. Hi Slow installs are known issues.

The problem is that there is no information on exactly why they are slow. The longest I have seen was 16 hours with a Beta Build clean install. After the install completed, the system was perfectly solid for 3 months until the RC was released. The RC installed on that same system in under 30 minutes?

There doesn't appear to be any rhyme or reason for this. Best advice I can give is to just let it run. Hope this helps. I appreciate the suggestion, but perhaps we can brainstorm this a little further.

I'm not convinced that this is a 7 issue because I couldn't even get to the language selection screen in Vista last night, either. I really need to isolate the issue. Wednesday, May 13, PM. Hi Like I said this has been seen on many, many different systems. I tried all sorts of different ways to resolve this, I had been using Ver Did you check the ISO you downloaded?

How did you burn it to disc? Did you check and verify the final disc? My problem was the make of disc that I used! The TDK disc is now completely unusable!! I then had Nero Verify the disc for errors, l did check my first disc which passed ok!! Viola RC1 installed straight away with no pauses. I ended up downloading the RC again and burned it again at the slowest speed 2. However, to no avail, I still have the slow load times. I'm taking Ronnie's suggestion and just letting it run.

There have been a few times where it idles for a considerably long time; during those periods, I open and close the CD tray to cycle the disc again. I had read that a few other people who shared my issue had done that and it seemed to work out and be ok.

I'm really hoping that this installation works. Hi Be sure and let us know how this works out for you. Because I'm having this same issue.

I've been told that issue also exists with Vista But I don't have any to test. I actually started thinking this was a nForce issue, but a friend of mine managed to install Vista 64 on his PC perfectly.

Maybe the problem is the sata dvd drive? Thursday, May 14, PM. Needless to say, I'm pretty bummed, and have no idea what is holding my system back. All processes were very slow. To solve this issue, I searched for slow file transfer Windows 10 using Google and found that many users were bothered by it or some similar issues like preparing to delete takes forever, slow USB transfer speed , etc.

I found many solutions. Fortunately, my issue was very simple. It was solved after I restarted my computer. Why Rebooting a Computer Fixes Problems?
