Another Vista Won't Install Post

drwho · Sep 17, 2006, 05:31 AM

I got the following error message when I tried to load the Vista RC1 32bit version.

Windows cannot open the required file G:\Sources\install.wim. The file may be corrupt or missing. Make sure all files required for installation are available and restart the installation. Error code: 0x80070570

Anyone know what this means? Did I get another bad download, or might this be indictative of of a bad burn?

I've answered my own question. I got a bad download. I d/led the 32bit version of Vista again tonight and tried installing it again. This time I met with success. I've also answered my question about my wireless network I have in my house, Vista picked that up also. Sofar, the new OS is looking pretty cool. Well I have something new to play with.
