I recently purchased new Dell computer that a pre-installed 64bit Win 7 OS. I proceeded to set it up by running sysprep along with the audit and generalized options, and then produced image using imagex.

After that, I restarted my computer, but I got this error message "Windows could not complete the installation. To install windows on this computer restart the installation". It only gives me the OK button as an option; the machine reboots after I click it and then tries again in an endless loop.

Has anyone encountered this before?

This information from the installer is an obvious indication that there is something wrong with the installer you are using. If you have downloaded the BlackBerry installer, make sure it came from the BlackBerry official website. Sometimes an error like this is caused by installer modification done by unauthorized individuals. It can also be caused by corrupted files.

Before the installation can start, the installer needs to unpack the files first but before unpacking the files they need to be verified. If there is a corrupted file or files, the verification will fail thus ending the installation. And also, since you are installing BlackBerry Desktop Software 6.1, it is obvious that you are installing an old version or an outdated version.

Download the latest installer again from BlackBerry Desktop Software 7.1. It supports BlackBerry Smartphones and BlackBerry PlayBook tablet with BlackBerry 7.1 operating system or earlier. If you are using a much newer version of BlackBerry or your device runs on BlackBerry 10 OS, you should use BlackBerry Link for BlackBerry 10. It should fix your problem.
