have tried to install Vista Beta 2 this morning and twice I have received
this error message.
AN ERROR OCCURRED WHILE PREPARING WINDOWS SETUP TO BOOT INTO THE NEXT STAGE
OF SETUP
The installation then cancelled.
I have no idea why this is happening, as it completes,
Copying windows files.
Expanding files.
Installing features
And appears to complete installing updates, then the error message.
The installation is on a fresh 400GB hard drive with the hardware that is
listed below.
Can anyone shed any light as to why this is happening? I hope this is just a
glitch with Beta 2 and will not be the same for RC1/2 or even RTM or I am
going to be in big trouble.
Any help would be appreciated.
