Getting the setup.exe corrupt file install error help!
"windows 7 setup.exe corrupt file the file or directory is corrupt"
I'm trying to install 7 32bit OEM Home Premium with the legit bought holographic CD (not a burned image of any kind) onto a Gateway laptop with a brand new hard drive.
I was getting this error installing the OS the regular way booting to the cd and installing from it, so instead I copied the contents of the cd to a freshly quick formatted NTFS partition on the new laptop hard drive, then used bootsect and diskpart to setup the disk. It boots just fine and also gets the same error installing straight from the hard drive.
Is there some kind of update I need to slipstream into this cursed cd? How would I go about doing it? Thanks.
