Internet Explorer 9

Has anyone had problems installing Internet Explorer 9 on a pc with 64 bit windows? My installation goes over about 10 % and hangs.

 

Vista64 Ultimate here, downloaded through Windows update without any problems. Have you checked your security whether it is interfering(I had to authorize the connection with my firewall)?

 

64 bit Win7 and not a problem.

 

No, the installation went remarkably smoothly.

 

Mine installed ok. When you go to install 64 bit IE9, it apparently also downloads and installs 32 bit. Are you connected to the web when installing?

 

If you are still having issues make sure your machine is fully patched then install using a full installer. It most probably is security software interfering with online installer

No problems on Windows 7 Pro 64-bit.

 

Yes indeed, on a Win7 home premium 64 bit. The computer would hang during "closing programs" with the progress bar one tenth of the way. If I specified "ignore running programs" it would go 1/4 of the way while "installing". Either way I had to do a forced shutdown.

If I disabled NOD32, the installation would get to, or near, completion, and didn't hang. But then it had a problem with ieframe.dll. And when I clicked the start button, a window popped up that said "can't find msls.dll". What the hell! It then restores IE8. I haven't been able to complete the install yet.

This 64 bit installation is about as plain vanilla as you can get. I built it for my sister and all she does is enter her Weight Watcher's points.

I have a 32 bit Win7 installation on that machine, for testing, that installed IE9 perfectly.

I have two Win7 machines myself, running 64 bit pro, and IE9 installed easily. Her machine has a later version of Nod32 than I have. Maybe that could explain something.

 

I found my problem. It was the star-crossed NOD32 version 4.2.58.3. I replaced that with the current version and every thing is A-OK.

 

No trouble installing, but its a buggger some times waiting for the navigation to take me to the page i want, its bloody dreadfully slow!

 

I just downloaded IE9 on my new computer. I find IE9 on WIN7 x64 painfully minimalistic. I can't find anything, not even Help or menu. Is there a keystroke to bring up more toolbars?

 

on 32 bits the installer gave me plenty of grief.
i would expect something better from Microsoft.

the only thing that seem to work for me was to download the full install version first , then disabling UAC for the install.

 

Click the cogwheel or press alt+F.

Look into updating your video drivers. If they are too old or incompatible hardware acceleration will turn itself off.

 

Thanks I'll try it.
OK that was it! I'm good to go.

 

No issues at all on a Win 7 Ultimate x64 pc.
