Every start the laptop spends 4-5 minutes "preparing to configure windows" then" adding features" & restarts.

Sounds like your windows install is corrupt somehow. You should only get that message on your first reboot after installing windows. You have removed the windows installation media and not trying to install windows every time are you? It would be in your best interest to have someone help you with this. I've helped you in your previous threads and it doesn't sound like you have too much computer knowledge.

Thanx Johnb35, Do you think that if I run the Media tool again it may correct the issue?


PS. Your help was not for nothing on my old Compaq Laptop, I installed W10 but accidentally clicked Home instead of Pro version.

It might. Make sure you disconnect any other drives from the system before installing. Delete the existing partitions on the drive you are trying to install windows to and set them back up again. Are you the hard drive being used is not damaged or corrupted?
