Configuring Updates Stage 3 of 3 hangs when installing Hyper-V on a HP server
I’m posting this as i have encountered this… the solution is in KB950792
After you enable, disable, or update Hyper-V technology on a Windows Server 2008-based computer, the process stops responding. When you try to enable or update Hyper-V, the computer stalls at "Configuring Updates Stage 3 of 3." In this case, only 54 percent of the process is completed. When you try to disable Hyper-V, the computer stalls at "Configuring Updates Stage 3 of 3." In this case, only 75 percent of the process is completed.
The cause of this problem : HP network configuration utility.
