Started the SP1 beta install at 8 am today and at 11 am decided that the progress bar looked decidedly hung at about 5%. I pushed cancel which gives a message saying its rolling back but leaves the progress bar hung at the same location for the last hour.
Is the SP1 beta installer just really slow or is there something wrong with my specific setup?
The PC itself is half decent (win7, x64, dual core, 4gb ram, etc...). Did your install go quicker?
The installation will normally take between 30-60 minutes, but it may be more depending on your internet connection. The installer will prompt you to restart your computer when it completes its tasks.
Help -> About . The version of the installation will be SP1Rel if SP1 is installed.
You can download Visual Studio 2010 from My.VisualStudio.com. My.VisualStudio.com requires a free Dev Essentials subscription, or a Visual Studio Subscription.
I had the same problem. "VS 2010 Slowlly installation, win 7 x64"(sic) solved it for me.
