Vista Installation error (UPDATED) (EDITED)

Postby compu-noob on Sun Aug 10, 2008 6:15 am

Hello all, am sure this one has been mentioned before so am sorry for Re-posting if it has, i just have limited access to the internet so im posting whilst i get a chance.

I am currently installing Windows Vista 64 to a Raided (stripe) system its a fresh install on formatted drives and ive encountered nothing but problems along the way... the latest problem occurs during the intallation of Vista it gets to expanding files 10% and comes up with an error message saying " Windows cannot install the required files. The file does not exist. Make sure all files required for installation are available and restart the installation. Error Code: 0x80070003"
After having googled it ive not found anything specific only people trying different methods of installing as i have allready! from 3 different DVDs and HDD.

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!
