Windows 7 x86 upgrade hangs on FIRST BOOT with spinning icon
I have an older Windows 7 Professional x86 install (on a multiboot) that I am trying to upgrade to Windows 10. Hardware is an AAEON thin mini-ITX with i3 3225, 4000 HD graphics and 500gb SSD.
The installation halts on the first boot, after the files have been copied, with the blue screen and spinning icon.
The error log is not of much use, but here are the last few lines.
MOUPG MoSetupPlatform: SetupPlatform::SetSqmDatapoint(DWORD) returned: [0x80004005]
MOUPG MoSetupPlatform: SetupPlatform::SetSqmEndTime returned: [0x80004005]
CDiagnosticsHelper::SetDeferredSQMStartTime: Attempting to set a deferred SQM datapoint start time in an invalid SQM session[gle=0x000000b7]
CDiagnosticsHelper::SetDeferredSQMEndTime: Attempting to set a deferred SQM datapoint end time in an invalid SQM session
This is definitely a software issue, because one of the partitions has been successfully upgraded. I could take the easy path with a clean install, but I am intensely curious as to why this won't upgrade, and was hoping someone could suggest what I might look for.
Suggestions?
