Despite the fact that Microsoft has released and successfully promotes new versions of the Windows operating system, it is Windows 7 Ultimate that can be considered the most successful and popular among users. Therefore, all the problems associated with the installation of the system remain very relevant.
Sometimes it does not install Windows 7 or hangs up the computer during the installation of Windows 7
Causes of long Windows startup and hangs
If there is a long windows installation 7 or the window does not appear initial installation, in most cases it makes sense to change individual bIOS settings. This solid state storage device with autonomous power supply is a set of firmware. Very often, when the computer hangs when you boot Windows 7, this is due to the incorrect operation of the BIOS.
It often happens that the boot window appears 5-10 minutes after the device has accessed the boot disk. There are hardware methods that make it possible to significantly accelerate the loading process.
Windows 7 is loaded for a long time, for various reasons, but you need to start with BIOS. If Windows 7, then there are many reasons why the computer boots slowly. To speed up the operation of a personal device, you can do the following:
- Defragment your hard drive
- Defragment and clean the registry
- Removing unnecessary programs
- Optimize startup list
Changing BIOS settings
Depending on the motherboard and chipset, the input to the Base system is performed by repeatedly pressing a certain key, immediately after turning on the device. The following keys or their combinations are most often used:
- Delete
- F1, F2, F3, F10, F11
- Ctrl + Alt + Esc
- Ctrl + Alt + Ins
- Ctrl + Alt + Del
AT modern computers, external storage Connect via serial interface SATA (SerialATA). This standard supports the function of the order of commands and provides for hot-plug devices. To use all the features of this interface, you must enable AHCI mode. When working with the Windows system 7, before enabling this mode in the BIOS, you need to activate the AHCI driver by modifying the registry setting. Log on to the following address: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \\ System \\ CurrentControlSet \\ Services \\ msahci and change the value of the "start" parameter from 3 or 4 to 0. Then you need to log in to the BIOS to do the following.
Fig.1. If the BIOS input is successful, the following screen appears on the screen:Moving the arrows, you need to open the window "INTEGRATEDPERIPHERALS". In this window there are settings of the SATA controller with the possibility of changing them. The first line indicates that the controller is on, this is indicated by the value of "Enabled" - enabled.
Fig.2. In the next line, the value of "NativeIDE" needs to be changed to AHCIIn some cases, if the disk is not detected, you can try setting the value of RAID (group connection). Then disconnect the drive on the flexible magnetic disks, which has not been used for a long time and is not included in the peripheral equipment of modern personal devices. This line looks like this: DriveAFloppy 3 modeSupport 1.44M 3.5. "Next, in parentheses, set the" none "parameter to show the system that this device is not present.
Fig.3. The result is the followingThe device is absent and in addition it is off. Pressing the F10 key will save the new settings. Now go to the "Save & ExitSetup" line, which means "Save changes and exit". After the computer is restarted, the new settings will be installed. All the above operations should be performed if the computer crashes with Windows 7 or the laptop hangs when you install Windows 7.
If Windows is not installed, then the virus can be infected with the device. Some software downloaded from the Internet can be very slow to work, so when Windows 7 is about to reinstall the operating system, it is recommended to scan the device with the help of the antivirus utilities. The new OS should be installed on a computer completely cleaned from various "dirt".
Other options to do if Windows 7 installation hangs
Often users complain - "I can not". The fact is that many people try to download the program from the Internet, and this is a very unreliable matter because of the large number of viruses on websites with free software. Therefore, it is best to use licensed software on optical disks, or, as a last resort, a good pirated copy with the activator. In the process of work, there may be various situations associated with a slowdown of the device or with hovering during certain operations.
If the installation is hung windows Updates 7, then you can wait a while and if after some time the installation of updates does not continue, then perform a power shutdown and restart the computer.
There is a situation where you can not install Windows 7 from a USB flash drive. The main failure rate for installation with solid state drive is due to wrong setting BIOS. Elimination of the reasons indicated above is the disabling of the floppy disk and setting the AHCI mode. Sometimes the program can not be read because it is incorrectly written. To properly format and burn a disk image to a flash drive, you can use the very handy UltraISO utility, which supports over 30 formats.
In some cases, when unpacking windows files 7 freezes by 0%. The main reasons can be two:
- Overclocking the processor with hardware
- A lot of broken sectors on the hard drive
Generally, when changing the frequency for overclocking the processor, many software products stop being correctly installed, but after returning the settings to the initial state, the correct operation is restored. The old hard drive can also be the reason for the hangup, when installing the operating system. It is necessary to check the hard drive using the "Victoria" program and, if necessary, replace it with a new drive.

Now you know what to do if the Windows 7 installation hangs.
Why does the computer boot slowly when shutting down or, conversely, loading the operating system?
Here, Friends, just these questions and try to give an answer and of course advice to action to eliminate such troubles.
First you need to figure out which of the processes leads the Windows into a thoughtful state.
And help us with this built-in windows function a detailed report of the startup status, shutdown, logon and logoff.
Unsurprisingly, if you have not encountered this report.
This setting is disabled by default and can be activated by using Registry Editor.
Working with the Windows registry
To start the Registry Editor, simply type in search line Windows regedit.exe.
Go through the tree directory system to the directory:
KEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \\ SOFTWARE \\ Microsoft \\ Windows \\ CurrentVersion \\ Policies \\ System
In the right part of the window, find the file named VerboseStatus. Double click on it and in the window that opens, enter a value
If the VerboseStatus file does not appear, you need to create it. To do this, right-click, point to New, and then click DWORD Value (32 bits).
Name the file the name VerboseStatus and enter the value of parameter 1.
As a result, instead of the usual phrases "Shutdown" or "Getting Started", the monitor screen will consistently display the downloaded and closed services and Windows processes.
If your system hangs for a long time or hangs completely at a certain step, you will know the reason for sure.
Keeping the startup and shutdown status report by itself does not solve the problem, but it bares it for technical specialists, to which you can turn for help.
It is likely that this trick can be implemented on other operating systems of the Windows family. If so, share your experiences in the comments.
And so, additionally:
A program that is slow or even freezes at boot time must be removed or disabled for it to boot when Windows starts.
And how to make it beautiful to not remove something superfluous?
There is a free solution!
Decrap software is not just for new computers, but you can use it to remove software from any old computers!
If you had to buy a ready desktop or laptop with preinstalled Windows, then you know exactly how many "garbage" software managers manage to put there.
Trivial versions of antiviruses and office packages, some miserable games and system optimizers, built-in error correction and backup systems.
More often than not from this free junk more harm than good!
However, to remove it, you need to spend some time and have the appropriate knowledge, since sometimes such software can be deeply integrated into the system.
Free utility Decrap solves this problem and allows you to bring your system to its original appearance. I also use this wonderful program (it has a variant in Russian).
Here's the screenshot from the screen when you install:
The Decrap works as follows. After installation and startup, the system is analyzed and all the "foreign" elements are revealed.
After that, you will be prompted to create a restore point to be able to return to its original state if something goes wrong.
After that, you will see a list of software that you can remove from your computer.
You need to check the items you do not need and click the Next button, after which you will uninstall and clean the registry from the entries of the remote programs.
This process can be done completely in automatic mode, so you can just drink a cup of coffee and literally in 5-10 minutes get a completely clean computer.
Especially it is worth paying attention to the owners of technology brands Dell, Asus, HP and Toshiba. The program is free and works in Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8.
And it's free for personal use. http://www.decrap.org/ But you can download this program here:
GOOD LUCK, FRIENDS!
And without hanging Windows!
Every year, something new appears in computer technology. All kinds of programs are constantly updated, new ones are being created, all kinds of additions, patches and packages are produced. All this is done in order to maximally simplify the life of the user and make it easier to use the computer. It should be noted that operating systems do not stand still. They are updated not with such frequency, as programs and data packets, but in every 3-5 years there are absolutely new ones on the functionality and features of the system usage. So, after the release in 2001 of the most famous and popular OS Windows XP managed to get 3 of its updates (SP 1/2/3), Windows Vista, Windows 7 and most recently on computers appeared the latest, 8 version of the operating system from Microsoft.
Despite a large number of different operating systems, domestic users prefer to use the "old-good" Windows XP, which for 12 years of its existence has become for the majority the only system in which it is customary and convenient to work. But the older the system, the more it happens to various failures and the less it is protected from various malware and so-called "bugs" (program errors). What should I do if the system does not boot and hangs constantly? We will try to understand the most common causes of these phenomena.
What should I do if Windows XP does not boot?
The most important thing is not to panic. Perhaps the reason for the violation or failure of the boot process is quite simple and no special diagnostics are required. There are two main reasons that cause Windows XP to stop loading:
- Problems with the software. Such problems can be caused by a variety of reasons, from interrupting the system due to a sudden voltage drop and ending with viruses that block the process of loading system files.
- Problems with the hardware. In other words, the system is not loaded due to the fact that there were violations in the work of "hardware", not software. Again, the reasons can be very diverse, ranging from the departure of the plume hard drive and ending with the deformation of the hardware due to impact or voltage drop.
How can you determine what the problem is? There is a simple enough, but proven way: to check the hardware it's enough to go into the BIOS. If you do not go into details, the BIOS is part of the system software ( basic system input / output of data). In order to enter into it, it is enough to restart the computer and at the time the computer starts (it's the computer, not Windows XP), press F2. After pressing the key, the user can go directly to the BIOS, where he can see the basic information about the connected devices and the system. To check the connected devices, you need to go to the Boots section. In this section, you can see all the devices and check if the computer recognizes hDD. Opposite the "HDD" item should be the name of the hard disk, if "None" is written opposite this item, then the reason for the system not loading should be searched in hardware.
As a rule, if there are problems with the software, the system can independently determine the cause. In this case, the possible options actions. The user just select "Download the last successful configuration", after which the system will be able to automatically recover and boot.
In the event that any system fileneeded to boot Windows XP, the system will also automatically detect this problem. However, in this case, you will need to reinstall the system or start an automatic system restore through installation disk (ASR).
If all of the above actions are not possible, then the problem is most probably the hardware part. In this case, the user is recommended to contact the master to determine the cause and diagnosis of the "iron". Perhaps the reason lies in the banal departure of the hard disk loop or the reading matrix. And it is possible that operating system Do not download due to a violation in the processor or motherboard. It is best to leave this question for consideration by an experienced specialist.
What should I do if Windows XP hangs?
This problem is much easier to solve than the previous one. There are several main reasons why the operating system hangs:
Causes of system hangup may be hardware problems. Yes, no matter how unpleasant it is, but the computer needs to be updated. If no replacement parts have been made for 7-10 years, then there is a 100% chance that the lack of performance of the system directly depends on the deterioration of the hardware.
