New Windows 11 installations always fail
I’ve been trying to install Windows on my new computer, but the installation process fails every time at exactly 58%. I’ve tried both third-party software and the official Media Creation Tool, but the result is always the same. There are no error codes or helpful prompts—it just stops and gives up.
I’ve tried different USB ports, different flash drives, and downloaded the ISO file multiple times. But it’s still stuck at 58%. I’m not sure if this is a hardware issue or if I’ve overlooked something in the BIOS settings. I’m a complete beginner, so I don’t know what else to check.
