I am running the SharePoint Configuration Wizard. Version 15.0.4420.1017. The wizard appears to run fine through all the setup screens. Once it begins with step 3, I note it has created the SharePoint_AdminContent_xxx, and SharePoint_Config databases. After several hours of running the application was still running. I checked the event log for the SP server there is no SharePoint events, and in the SQL Server's event log, there are only login events.
I next went to the PSCDiagnostics log to find over 100,000 lines with the info 'Not running in high contrast, so we will paint the background with our trademarked image'. This appears to be related to the new high contrast mode which is part of Win 8 and Win Server 2012Win Server 2012.
Is there a display setting which will stop this message from appearing? Alternatively, is there an option when runningpsconfigui.exe to suppress these messages?
