Every time I try to install Windows 10 through the Media tool I always stop at 73%. I tried to do it on a Clean Boot and it was the same. I also tried to remove the "read-only" and "system" attributes on the "$WINDOWS.~BT", but it doesn't let me change the "Read-Only" attribute on a file called boot.sdi and I don't know how to remove the "System" attribute.

I had the same problem. There is a dialog somewhere at the start of the install process that gives you the option to install Windows 10 without updates. I tried installing again, this time i chose to install Windows 10 without updates. It worked for me. After my computer rebooted, updates started installing automatically anyway. There was a minute when the screen went black, so if that happens to you don't freak out. It will come back on. I hope this works for you.
I'm trying it now, thanks...I hope., makes so much sense, It always quit after updates part of install. 20 min. I will know. I did upgrade the chipset also. it didn't work
U R a **** Genius, just got to 100% and rebooting
