Having had this screen appear on me…

No, it didn’t brick any of the computers I’ve canceled this on. Then I went and did a quick regedit so it wouldn’t happen again. It will tell you when you cannot interrupt the changes.

Also, even linux has issues with some input devices, I’ve had it decide to use some unexpected keyboard format where keys don’t match and it doesn’t automatically load a mouse driver leaving you to try an alternative install that allows customization. But I got it installed just fine.

Real stretch there, trying to make sure “windoze bad.”
