Tried to install SQL Server Developer Edition on Windows 7 Ultimate.
There are 6 initial checks made before installation starts, one of which is "Restart Computer" - this is where I kept getting stuck. I could restart but still nothing doing.
A few posts suggested that the registry was to blame for my troubles, specifically the "PendingFileRenameOperations" value in "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager".
The value stored here was:
\??\C:\Windows\TEMP\logishrd\LVPrcInj03.dll
\??\C:\Windows\TEMP\logishrd\
\??\C:\Windows\TEMP\logishrd\LVPrcInj04.dll
\??\C:\Windows\TEMP\logishrd\
(These are apparently linked to Logitech and the webcam I have installed).
I cleared the values and restarted - same thing. Also, the values were back in the registry key.
So I decided I'd rename "PendingFileRenameOperations" and then tried the install again (without restarting). This did the trick and I was able to install SQL 2008 (then of course I renamed the key to the original name).
