Upgrade to Windows 10 Stalls

Attaching screenshots for reference. The 2nd screenshot is the setup where the percentage reaches 77 or 78%. I've let it go for hours and when I come back to check on it, i'm at the login screen with setup no longer running.

...Still at 77%

Just let it running and when it reaches a point with something else, take a screenshot but don't interrupt it.

 

[wallaceakew]

Do you have any other suggestions, the reason I'm asking is that previously I have let it run overnight and it just stays at 77%.

Your HDD may be failing:

GSmartControl
Follow the instructions below to check your SMART status with GSmartControl:

• Download the portable version of GSmartControl and save it on your Desktop;
• Extract the zip file to your Desktop. Open the folder gsmartcontrol-1.1.3-win64 which should be located on your Desktop and double-click gsmartcontrol.exe to launch the program.
• Identify your drive in the list (if recognized by the tool), and hover your mouse over it.
• You should see something called: SMART status. It will either read: Enabled, in which case you should do the following:
• Double-click on it to bring up its window (usually you'll find your drive by its size or its brand name);
• Go to the Self-Tests tab, then select Extended Self-test in the Test type drop-down list and click on Execute (this test can take a few hours to complete);
• Once the test is over, the results will be displayed at the bottom of the window. Please copy and paste these results in your next reply or take a screenshot;
• Also, go in the Attributes tab and if you have any entries highlighted in red or pink, take a screenshot of the GSmartControl window and attach it in your next reply;
• Please note: If the SMART Status reads: Unsupported, stop and let me know.

The backstory is that the system was running on a hard drive that had bad blocks. After running chkdsk a few times until it found no more bad blocks I was able to successfully capture an image using macrium reflect. The system is now on a brand new solid-state drive.

That's a no, no.

You need to clean install the system, not clone it from a bad drive, because then you clone issues as well.

Gocha thank you. So, at this point is there anything else I can do to try to repair Windows 7 enough so I can update to Windows 10?

 

[Sysnative Windows Update]

I don't think so.

 

[wallaceakew]

I really appreciate your help. This is a giant bummer. Have a good rest of your weekend.

 

[Sysnative Windows Update]

Same to you.
