Just installed windows on my i7 2600, Once done i put in the intel cd that came with it so that i could install the drivers. Once finished i had to restart the pc. The pc gets to the part where it has the blue/greeny background and says "welcome", it just gets stuck here. The pc still boots up in safe mode fine. Any one have any ideas?

thanks
 
Boot in safe mode, uninstall the drivers or do a system restore to before you installed the drivers.
If it all works without drivers, I suggest you install drivers individually to narrow the problem to a certain driver if that's the case.
Good luck
 
Reload windows again then work from there, could be a bad install. Does it work when windows boots up for the first time without the intel cd having been used? Nothing worse than trying to fix a problem on a bad install when so get that out of the way. As scorpio says if you can get into windows fromt he fresh install then you can eliminate the issue by installing one thing at a time.

yup could get in fine. Will unstall the drivers and see what happens. I did notice that when the drivers installed the intel graphics media accelerator failed to install but i didnt think it would effect this is 1) im running a graphics card and 2) the display is working
 
What operating system are you installing ? I hope it's not one of those that had drivers added onto them because you will mostly get errors when you try to install original drivers, but if all fails, do a clean install with an original cd that has not been modified and download the latest drivers from your motherboard maker side, also have a look if there were similar problems reported on same type of motherboard on other forums

Installing windows 7 64bit, i cant download the drivers as the pc didn't pick up the network so was installing the network drivers etc from the cd
 
You dont need to install drivers with W7 (except GPU drivers), it has generic versions for everything. Not being able to see the network is due to some other problem.
 
tried uninstalling some of the intel drivers but it came up with the message that windows installer has a problem, decided to do a fresh install so will have to see what happens
 
Did you install the cooler?

Btw, which intel cd are you talking about. The CPU box is small and mine didn't "come with" anything.
 
Did you install the cooler? - It runs in safe mode, so why would it be the cooler

Btw, which intel cd are you talking about. The CPU box is small and mine didn't "come with" anything. - Its an i7 2600, so he probably got a new MB as well, and i'm questing its an Intel board, which means its an intel driver cd

:wtf:

I've installed Windows 7 on close to 70 different desktops/laptops over the past year and quite often, I have to find LAN/cardreader/sound drivers. I even built a DVD that has hundreds of drivers (64bit and 32bit) just to help with this problem.
 
That's unlucky. Ha ha!

Maybe he got the cooler from computek ;)
