I just formated my hard drive tonight, windows was installed and I had just spent 2 hours installing all of my programs and windows updates.
I was installing my sound drivers and installing windows media player at the same time, then windows media player said "cannot install at this time please run setup again later" and then my computer rebooted with my sound card drive installation in the backround.
So i tried getting into windows again... but it kept rebooting, no matter what setting i went into, safe mode, last known configuration, NOTHING was working.
at this point i was freaking out because my computer is brand new and still pretty high end, and I knew continuous rebooting was a VERY bad sign.
so rather than format again and lose all of the work, i installed windows again into a different folder (windows2).
to my relief and amazement it worked.
is there a way for me to repair my existing windows and then delete this one?
