Hi!
I have a serious problem installing vista business. During installation expanding files 21%
(directly after first reboot) I get the following error message: "Windows cannot
install required files. Network problems may be preventing Windows from
accessing the file. Make sure the computer is connected to the network and
restart the installation. Error code: 0x80070005"

I've tried following without any succes:
*running Windows Vista Upgrade Advisor, said there should be n problem.
*staying connected to network (and internet) during installation.

Hi, I'm having a problem installing Home Premium, I checked all drivers and removed all the things it said to, started to install vista (Upgrade) and it then was doing fine, got to expanding files then it said it had to reboot, and once it loaded back up again it said that it was a fatal system error, any ideas?

Thanks for the help.

I have a Sony VAIO laptop (VGN-C190P) and received the express upgrade kit for Windows Vista Business. I inserted the CD, followed the instructions and proceeded to install. After the BIOS was updated it took me to a screen where it said installation files were being copied; it was not actually installing Vista yet. Every time, at the exact same place, I received an error message that read "an unknown error has occured while searching for an unnamed file." The title bar read, "irsetup." I reset the BIOS to factory defaults and tried again but nothing changed. Every time I try, I get the same error message at the exact same place and the process does not go any farther.

Don't ask... but I've managed to compress the partition of my HD with my Vista install on (by checking the little box on the HD properties in Vista). So now whenever I try and boot up I get an error message saying
"BOOTMGR Compressed, press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart"

I've already tried the stuff a google search brings up ie:

Win Vista DVD > Command Prompt>
C:
expand bootmgr temp
attrib bootmgr -s -r -h
del bootmgr
ren temp bootmgr
attrib bootmgr -a +s +r +h

But I still get the error after i've done that. I've tried doing that for every archived file in the C: root directory and that still doesn't help. I've downloaded Hirens Boot CD and tried a load of tools on there (including zeroing my MBR and then getting windows vista to fix it with its auto-repair feature) and i still get the same message!

Windows Vista goes successfuly through: " Copying Windows files, Expanding files, Installing features, Installing updates,", next afer restart installation freeze in random moments: during " Windows is preparing for start for first time" or during "Completing installation". I Install from Windowsa XP and from boot DVD.

Athlon 3.0+ x64
1GB RAM
Geforce 6600 256MB
GA-K8VT890-9
HDD Seagate 200GB SATA NTFS

BIOS update, install on diffrent HDD didn't help.

Any ideas?
