Bless you Airman. It actually worked and time to install to first boot was 18 minutes.
Need to have a post advising folks with difficulties to limit the ram amount on the install. Mine was with one stick of 2G but the two sticks with 4G total did not work. Actually, Microsoft should advise folks of the problem but as usual they do not help very much.
I will be sure to track this forum in future in case others encounter the same problem as me.
Again, a very big thanks! |
