TECHLAND FORUMS : I forgeted up

[Protoss Dragoon]

I was wiping my hard-drive and thought it would be O.K for me to close the lid on my laptop, and now it's giving me an error message : the Computer Restarted unexpectedly or encountered an unexpected error and windows installation cannot proceed, press "OK" to restart computer, and restart installation"

my ideas :
installing windows to a usb

I'm not sure which one, I just want to install windows 10 again.

change your power options so that it doesn't go into sleep mode or standby / windows resume bullstuff on lid close, then retry the installation

if your gonna use a flash drive, rufus is a nice program for creating a bootable usb from an iso

I used windows media creation tool... will this work?

...just restart the windows installer and try again? this time not closing the lid.
seems more of a blogland forums than a techland forums post to me

I tried the suggested above, did not work. stuck in infinite loop.

UPDATE : 10:47 PM CST.
I have managed to get it to work on a windows 8 boot, for testing reasons, as I did not have a win 8 key, this could suggest I could boot it from a windows 10 iso installed on a usb.

have you tried resetting the bits in your harddrive by wiping it down with isopropyl?

yeah.. totally!

[Goth77]

yeah.. totally!

if that doesn't work, you might have to burn the iso to the flash drive with a lighter or matches

Now the usb is just smelly!

ok this is a battery fault.
get your battery, wrap it in tinfoil and add a little salt. after that put it in the microwave and turn the microwave on for 3 seconds, this will activate the microprocessors in the battery.

In all seriousness : I've managed to install ubuntu on my laptop, it runs, I guess it can be a temp for now..

install windows 8 and run this

or if you haven't tried booting off of a windows 10 usb drive then try downloading the iso via that same app and making a bootable usb drive with rufus or the apps built in tool to create one
