Archived from groups: microsoft.public.win2000.setup (More info?)
My laptop gets stuck "registering components" during install. I have
restarted many times and let the computer sit for about 30 hours (it
actually made some progress after about 12 hours then, no more). The
drive is Fat32, so I can boot from a Win98 boot CD and get to the hard
drive.
What is it that Win2k sees at boot time that says "run setup, i did
not finish last time?" Do I need to rename/delete some file or folder
so it will attempt to boot normally?
TIA,
Rick
