error 80070241

[Guest]

I'm getting this error arround 24-26% every time i try to install a clean
install of the 32bit english vista. 80070241 durring the copying setup files
to the local machine. I did an md5 check on the hash and it came out perfect
so i'm not sure what's happening. I've burned this copy 2ce now on 2 diffrent
dvd-r brands at 4x and still nothing.

Try burning it at 2x and try the install again. Or try an alternative method
of installing such as extracting the contents of the ISO to folder in an
existing installation of Windows and launch setup from there or use Virtual
drive software such as Daemon Tools or NERO Image drive to install the
software.

I am getting this error as well but there is a twist. I actually had luck
installing Vista after getting this error only once on the first try. The
second try was successful. The problem was after initial install I had so
many problems with figuring out driver issues that I thought I had fouled it
up with incorrect drivers. I had several blue screens of death and other
issues I decided to re-install clean again. Now all I get is the error
80070241 at different points during the file copy. Why would it do this? It
worked once so if it was a corrupt file from the download it wouldt have
installed at all the first time. Same for the burning process. What the heck
is happening?

sounds like a hard drive controller issue..

I have this error repeatedly (about 8 times in a row or so) HDD controller
seems right except that the partition is wiped and and I'm booting from CD.
the logs say "missing boot manager" but if I formatted that partition, it
SHOULD BE missing, along with everything else on that partition.. Trying full
clean install to a blank HDD and my backed up files in another partition, but
no XP files... winXP got formatted off the drive and format /s doesn't work
anymore... go figure.
