Hi All
I've just purchased WHS 2011 and hoped to install it today and transfer my music collection, but so far I've managed to get nowhere. The furthest I've managed so far is about a inute or 2 after its finished loading files at the start of the install. I either get random blue screens or a black screen with a mouse cursor.
This has been so frustrating.
I upgraded the ram to 4Gb, and I've tried 2 different copies of WHS 2011. It previously had a linux based system on there, so I'm not sure if this was causing a problem, but anyway, I put a windows xp disc into the drive and used the installation of that to delete the partition and format the drive and then cancelled the XP install. Does WHS require a specific file system partition? Would this cause the issue?
I'm going crazy here!
