When trying to upgrade to windows 8, I get to 100%, and then my computer restarts. The blue microsoft logo comes up, and it says getting ready. Then an error message comes up and says ATTEMPTED_EXECUTE_OF_NOEXECUTE_MEMORY. It then reverts my OS back to windows 7. Any idea how to fix this error? Thanks!
Windows 8 upgrade error

A few things to check, for starters - make sure you have the latest supported Windows 7 drivers for your hardware installed, make sure you've uninstalled any antivirus, system monitoring, and firewall software, make sure you've run a disk check and disk cleanup of your hard disk containing your Windows installation, and then make sure your Windows 7 installation still boots properly afterwards. Assuming you're good, try the installation again.
