Installation failure during Windows 10 setup.
Installation failure during Windows 10 setup.
Operating a x470 Gaming Pro motherboard with a Ryzen 5 2600X processor, paired with a 980 GTX graphics card and 2400MHz DDR4 Corsair memory (2x8GB). I’m struggling to install the operating system.
Regarding the destination drive for your installation: Is it a previous hard disk, a newly acquired drive, or a solid-state drive? And concerning the USB drive used to install Windows—was it freshly created during the computer’s assembly, or is it an older one from a prior creation?
QwerkyPengwen:
Are you installing to a vintage hard disk drive, or a recently manufactured drive?
Or are you utilizing a solid-state drive?
Is the USB flash drive being used for Windows installation one that was created shortly after assembling the computer, or an older one from some time prior?
No, it’s a completely new SSD. Successfully getting the installation to function with a single RAM stick—does this indicate that the other stick is faulty?
Perhaps. However, consider running a memory test to investigate.
Possibly, though not definitely. However, run a memory test to investigate. Somewhat hesitant to install the second one for examination. Hmm.
The memory test executes prior to Windows loading, posing no risk to your system. Simply obtain and configure the bootable media for it before installing the supplementary RAM module.
