I suggest that next time it gets to that step press Shift and F10 together
and then typetskmgr and you should be able to look at process and see what
is causing the hang. You can then stop the process and the setup will
complete. If you see an excessive amout of processes (ex. 30 GRPCONV.EXE
processes) running you can assume that is too many and start stopping them.
If that doesn't work another fix that I have run into was swapping the
Memory chips (remove them and put them back in but in the other chips slot)
then reboot and let setup continue.
I hope this helps and hanve a nice day...

|
| When running Windows 2000 Pro Setup, the install goes correctly until
after
| the final setup menu, then comes "registers components" and the system
just
| stays there.
|
| The mouse works, I can move the Widnows setup window around the screen,
but
| it does not progress any further.
|
| If I reboot the machines, setup reruns and then stops again at this same
| place.
|
| Can anyone please help?
|
| I tried:
|
| safe mode
| safe mode with console
| safe mode with network support
|
| normal mode
| debug mode
|
| all of them do the same thing.
|
| Please post and e-mail me the resolutions, please!!
