Hi,

I've just been reinstalling xp (mc edition) for my dad on his dell laptop. After Windows automatically changes the resolution for me (basically just before it first logs on) I get this flashing red and yellow screen saying "installing applications - do not touch any buttons, this process may take upto 30 minutes".

So I press control alt delete - obviously!

"no touch" and "cscript.exe" are two programs running and I can see what looks like command prompt in the background. It is a dell laptop so it might be bundled software, but I've never seen anything like this before.

Any ideas please?

let it finsih its course
uninstall bloatware after the install
I wouldnt interupt the install.

Absolutely right brett888! We are so curious to get to the bottom of everything!Patience is a virtue and the rewards are great.How much time it took to build the 27KM long Wind tunnel at the franco-swiss border to test the "BIG BANG THEORY"!Now it's undergoing repairs,again a test of patience.The scientists bounced the atom only once and the apparatus broke down!
