Can anyone explain to me why you cannot install Windows 7 x64 to a computer with Native UEFI enabled with Secure Boot off? Or at least it appears that way.
I am attempting to boot from a Windows 7 SP1 x64 DVD on an EliteBook 9470m Folio using an external USB DVD. I boot up using the UEFI option and can confirm that it boots up correctly. However when the Windows 7 logo appears it freezes and will not continue. A similar issue occurs if I attempt to deploy Windows 7 SP1 x64 using Configuration Manager. I can boot up into my Win PE 5.0 x64 environment and run my task sequence, however when the laptop reboots after downloading and overlaying the wim file it freezes again. This thread talks about what I'm seeing: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-windows_install/windows-7-uefi-usb-installation-freeze-at-windows/c2a2dcad-e367-4c92-b230-6e08756ac80e?msgId=843553af-2049-4743-8e4e-441662b8954c Cheers Damon ________________________________ CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE AND DISCLAIMER The information in this transmission may be confidential and/or protected by legal professional privilege, and is intended only for the person or persons to whom it is addressed.
