This means there is an installation running in the background, it could be a windows update still installing, something you got for your computer that's still installing or it could be anything else still installing. If you can't find the installation that's running try checking the Task Manager for running installation processes or if that doesn't work try restarting your computer. Hope this helps.
How do you get out of Windows installation mode if its caught in the middle and can't finish installing?
You'll probably need to turn it of with the power switch, then power it back up with a bootable CD or floppy. Try it with the Windows CD. It should be bootable, and it may even detect the previous failed installation and be able to correct it. If not, it should enable you to format the drive and start over. If it fails a second time, you'll be into a little torubleshooting to see what's going wrong.
