SYMPTOMS
When you are installing a software package, the computer stops responding
(hangs).
CAUSE
Near the end of the installation process, most programs create a folder and
icons. At times, this folder may be visible on the screen before the setup
program is complete. If you close this folder before setup finishes, the
system may hang.
RESOLUTION
To avoid this problem, do not close the folder before the installation is
complete.
