Setup could not configure Windows to run on this computer's hardwa

[Guest]

I am trying to upgrade XP2 to Vista Ultimate but everytime I try the same
error occurs which looks like it has something to do with scecli.dll

I have had no problems doing a clean install using a spare drive so I assume
it must be something that is actually already installed on my PC.
