On Windows XP, my program stalls during installation.
Typically this has to do with a conflict with another program (or programs) running in the background. Often installing while startup items are turned off using Windows Diagnostic startup allows a full and successful installation. Please try the following:
- Cancel the installation
- Go to "Start" | "Run," type msconfig and click OK
- Make note of the chosen startup - it will be either Normal, Diagnostic, or Selective
- Choose Diagnostic, click "Apply," (wait for the hourglass to go away, which can take several seconds) and then click "Close," and when prompted to restart, do so
- After the computer restarts, close both windows that appear regarding Diagnostic mode
- Install the program
- If/when prompted to restart after the installation, choose "No"
- Go to "Start" | "Run," type msconfig and click OK
- Re-select the startup mode you made note of in step 3, click "Apply" and then click "Close" and when prompted to restart, do so
