Vista Beta 2 Install Problem

Guest

I've looked over all the tips on here and cannot find an answer...I ran the
upgrade advisor said everything was fine. Im running a AMD 2500 XP Barton
Core (1.83 Ghz) 1.5 Gig of Ram and a 300 Gig Harddrive. I've mounted the
image with daemon tools, I've ran from the windows xp startup, I've ran from
the pc booting up and still get the same error 80070241, I've also burned the
image at lowest possible setting and its still giving me the exact same error
it stops at 7% everytime. This is a clean install with xp sp2. I am using a
Asus A7n8x2.0 Board with bios version 1007. Any help would be greatly
appreciated. I am using an ata harddrive and there is nothing in bios that I
can find that would be causing an issue from what I have read.

I'm having the same problem. I get a little further into the install (~30%),
then it gives me a [80070241] error. I'm doing a fresh install. I have two
HDD's, the one I'm installing to is the slave. The master does not have on
OS on it.

Here is the contents of the SetupErr.log file:
Error [0x0604ad] IBS Callback_CopySetupFiles:An error occurred while
copying Setup files. Error code is [0x80070241][gle=0x00000241]

The windows version is: 6.0.5384.4 (winmain_beta2.060518-1455)

Thanks for any support you can give.

I'm having the same problem. I get about 30% into the install and I get a
[80070241] error. It says something about an error while copying a file.

I'm doing a clean install. My machine has 2 HDDs, the drive I'm installing
to is clean, the other has no OS.

The version I'm trying is: 6.0.5384.4 (winmain_beta2.060518-1455)

This is the exact error I get: Error [0x0604ad] IBS
Callback_CopySetupFiles:An error occurred while copying Setup files. Error
code is [0x80070241][gle=0x00000241]

I have the setupact.log and setuperr.log files if they woudl be helping.

Thanks for any support.

I have tried to burn the ISO file and got a [80070241] error
Same results for mounting and copying the disc to the Hard disk and run
setup from there

any idea of what to do (except re downloading)

I've got the same problem but with an installation progress of 15 %. The
problem apperas even after burning on two different DVD. But, for
information, I had a problem with the download manager, which stopped the
downloading and restarted it at the same point. An error in the file could be
the problem (no physical error detected on the second DVD by Nero).
I try to download the ISO image file again. If the installation works, I'll
post a new message in the coming hours.

I've got the same problem but with an installation progress of 15 %. The
issue appears with two different DVDs and with an installation on WinXP sp2
or on a formated HD. But I got an error when downloading the image file with
the download manager. The process stopped and restarted at the same point.
Maybe this error could have made the file being corrupted (logical corruption
because after verification with Nero, there was no physical read error with
my two DVDs).
I download the ISO image file again at the moment and I'll try a new
installation in the coming hours. I'll post a message in the same topic if
the download error is the solution to my problem.

Sorry for my not very good english !!!!!!!!!

not uncommon to have problems.
during the install when it is done, make sure the verification succeeds.
you may have to download it several times before getting a version that works. verification fails.

would suggest using deamon tools to install instead of wasting dvds until you have a KNOWN good copy that installs.

I have had to download as many as 3 times before FINALLY getting a good copy.

Dumb question, but then I am known for them. How do you verify the download?
I don't have Daemon tools. I have nero only. It says the file is good but
then????? Is there another way to verify. I sure would hate to have to
redownload this thing. Took me almost five hours using Verizon DSL and DAP,
which both worked smoothly all through the download. Is this a way to sell
the DVD instead of the free download? Sorry Microsoft but it appears that
something is wrong when so many people are having the same problem and
getting the same error.....Is the install.wim file faulty? Or is setup not
setting up the folder that install.wim is supposed to be installing to? I am
referring of course to the error 800070241, which by the way is in the
logfile after failure, under the Panther folder. Took me forever to go
through the entire logfile but that is where the problem seems to lie as far
as I can see. I am about to give up on this one unless there is a brainiac
out there who can figure this one out.

I also had the same issue when installing Windows Vista, it appeared at 8%.
My HD was Seagate ST380013AS (80G SATA), 20GB for installing Vista (i.e.
C:\). Below was my system:

MB:ASUS P4P800 SE
CPU: Pentium 4 3.2CGHz(Northwood)
Memory:1G Dual channel
VGA Card: Leadtek Geforce 6800LE 128MB
Sound Card: Creative Sound Blaster Audigy
ODD: ASUS E616 DVD-ROM
DVD-RW: Pioneer A10XLC
PS: I'd already burned the iso file to DVD at the slowest speed (2x) using
Nero Burning Rom.
Can anyone help me? Thanks a lot!

how do you know if it is a good download? I tried copying the files on to
another drive same problem no difference

Well, that was my question if you look closer at my reply to mikeyhsd. How do
I know if it is a good download. He said something to the effect that "if
the verification fails".......I was just asking what verification? The only
verification I know is if the program fails. But if you look at the number of
people with the exact same error one would begin to wonder if it is not a
download problem but rather a problem either with one of the files within the
program or perhaps something in common with those who are experiencing the
problem. At least I would think so. This problem has been brought up by a lot
of people and I am suggesting that perhaps there is a common reason for this
as opposed to some other problems that seem to be random or rare. That is all
I am questioning really. If there is a method of verification of the download
I wish someone would tell me. All I have to go by is the download manager at
this point. But, I thank you for your comments. :)

George, the only thing I see that we have in common with our problem is that
we both used Nero to burn the iso to disk. Now, perhaps that is the problem,
if so I sure would like to know that as I will try it with another program
(if I can find one). But I really think there is more to it than that. Our
computer specs are not the same or near the same so I think we can rule that
out. With the amount of people that are having the same problem, I think
someone in Microsoft support should look at the ISO and see if there isn't a
problem with it, then at least we can rule that out. In the meantime, I am
just going to wait and see if someone comes up with a solution. I can
wait.........but not long!!! ;)
