Question Computer freezes up on hwset

Hi!

Do you use a program called hwinfo32 or hwinfo64? If yes then please update it to latest version or shut down during installation of our benchmark.
Thanks!

Haven't used the program before, but went and installed it and same thing on trying to open it freezes up my computer. So looks like I might have to look elsewhere as what is causing it to freeze on those instances.

Thank you, after going through hwinfo found out it was stock win8 sata drivers that were causing it to freeze up.

Thanks for that!! I'll remember that when somebody will have thae same bug.

I'm getting the exact same problem, freezing during installation and error message that HWinfo64 driver is not correct. I've tried downloading and installing hwinfo64 and same thing happens computer freezes during installation. How do I resolve this issue?

Ci2e,
Do you have an intel chipset as well as windows 8? My issue was the stock windows 8 driver sata drivers weren't good and had to get all the drivers of the intel website.
