Error Upgrading Windows XP Home

[Guest]

I was told to upgrade to Windows Vista by opening the setup file from within
Windows XP in order to upgrade the software to Windows Vista.

Unfortuantly, I get this error when attempting to install like that:

"The application or DLL C:\VISTA\Sources\SPWIZENG.DLL is not a valid Windows
image. Please check this against your installation diskette."

Anyone know why I am getting this?

Did you launch setup from within Windows or by booting from the DVD? Did you
use Virtual Drive software? Have you tried burning the software at a lower
speed, 2x or extract contents of the ISO Image to a folder in XP and launch
setup from there?

1. Like I previously said, I launched it from within Windows, according to a
Windows Vista Guide I saw online in order to upgrade from Windows XP.

2. I did try virtual drive software, or Deamon Tools (spelling may be off),
and no progress.

3. Yes, I have tried at the lowest speed and extracting the contents to a
folder in Windows XP and launched it from there, but same error.

Im getting this same error. Im trying to find a way though it I burnt the
disk at the lowest speed I could 1x then I tryed 2x but nothings working...
Im not to sure of how to extract the contanments of the iso folder. So if
anyone could help me with that? But also after the error that you got I get
this one as well- The file `autorun.dll` could not be loaded or is corrupt.
Setup cannot continue. Error code is [0xC1]
