That window stays up for quite awhile and it seems the PC is doing nothing. Be patient and let it go for a few minutes.

Got the same problem and the HD led stays on...after 20 min I just forgot the whole thing and turn it off...any clues why the HD is stuck ??

AMD ATHLON 64 X2 - 5200+ with an asus m2vn-hdmi

Is it the processor & Mobo ?? This is my first AMD Box...and the last one...it was only half price
that Intel core2 duo..


Thank you in advance

You should have started your own thread in Build Your Own PC, a mod may move it.

AMD is no less reliable than Intel, and its most likely you have a general hardware problem, in which case the best place to start is the "Having problems with a new build?" thread stickied in BYOPC.
